it1775 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 (edited) Had this bass not very long, it's a gorgeous bass, I really didn't want to sell it and will keep it if it doesn't sell, but I could do with the money as I need to buy a car ! think now is a good time to sell as someone can get a mint one without paying £700+ with the new fender prices ! Bought this from dawsons in manchester at christmas, didn't want to order online and picked it out from quite a few in shop, to make sure I got a really nice one. I'm putting it up for[s][b] £550[/b][/s] [b]£496 [/b](plus fees if using paypal), which is as low as I can go, not in a rush to sell. It's mint, and only has a few very light surface scratches that I don't think will even photograph. Its beautifully made, and plays beautifully too. I'd prefer collection or meeting up ideally, but wouldn't mind delivering within say 30 miles though. Would post but at the risk and expense of the buyer. I'm in north wales, near Chester btw any questions ? Thanks !

SammyDamacy Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Mine looked like that No offence intended, but your price might be a bit hopeful. Usually jags go between £350 - £400, sold mine for £375. Just some friendly advice, but you are the seller Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you said i've seen some go cheap like yours, but seen quite a few others go for about £500, and this was before the price increase and they weren't as new condition. i'd love to sell it cheaper, but have already lost a hundred pound selling it for £550, and its practically new, so I thought it was a fair deal to be honest. I'd be losing almost 40% of what I payed at christmas if I sold it at £400 Can't afford to lose that much ! If it doesn't sell i'll just keep it, 'tis a lovely bass !

it1775 Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 (edited) Price drop already! Right, I had a thought about trying the Jag on ebay today, but as i've never sold anything on there didn't know about the fees. Worked out it would be around £54 with buy it now (priced at £550), so with that in mind its only fair I bring the price downto the same amount that i'd get from a sale from ebay, which would be [b]£496[/b]. That is my absolute bottom price though, that's it ! Dan Edited April 18, 2009 by it1775 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
