Useless amateur Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 There is a guitar for sale in Bracknell that I have been after for a while. There is no way that I can collect it, I can’t drive anymore in fact I couldn’t even sit in a car for that length of time anymore. This is a real shot in the dark but I don’t suppose there is anyone on here that travels from Bracknell to Weston super Mare who would be prepared to collect it for me and then drop it off for me? I would happily pay someone for their trouble. The guy selling it has had problems with couriers in the past and won’t entertain shipping it unfortunately. If anyone can help in any way I would be really grateful. It is only a cheap guitar (£100) but it will be good enough for me plus not being able to work anymore means money is really in short supply anyway. Thanks Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 If anyone can get it as far as Swindon or Chippenham, I can take from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Useless amateur Posted February 20, 2022 Author Share Posted February 20, 2022 @andyonbass& @Richdo you want me to sort it all out between you two or will you sort it out between you? I am happy to do it however there is less chance of a pink torpedo up in communication if there is only 2 people involved rather than 3. Thanks again both of you. I am incredibly grateful. If I can do anything for either of you I am happy to do it. If either of you want any cash for your troubles please tell me Again I am so grateful Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 I can sort it with @andyonbass. Let me know when you've got it back to Swindon and I'll arrange to come over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool!

Burns-bass Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 I’m coming to Weston on Wednesday from Bristol, so I can drop it on that leg if you want? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks but it's no problem... my office is in Chippenham, I go there two or three times a week, and my home is only 20 mins or so from Weston. My son & D-i-L live in Swindon, so I can go blag a brew from them when I pick the gtr up from @andyonbass. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
