TeresaFR Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 I sold a drum machine and two pedals and picked up one pedal and a pair of flat patch cables as part exchange and came out of it with money in pocket. Am I out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon C Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 So 2 weeks with nothing on the thread, then a flurry of "I'm out" and "Does this mean I'm out?" Were you all hid behind the sofa waiting for someone to break cover, or did you really all buy stuff yesterday? 😁 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I out? Yep, the new pedal did it not the way it was financed. I'm on 6 weeks which i think is a record for me for at least 3 years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hiram.k.hackenbacker Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 (edited) Well, I’ve just paid the balance on a bass I ordered last year. I don’t know if that means I’m in or out 🤷♂️ Edited February 17, 2023 by hiram.k.hackenbacker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look here you blackguard, I have a medical condition that means I'm still waiting for a humourplasty operation. The waiting list is phenomenally long, however. And whilst I am indeed landed gentry, I'm also the most cheap scoundrel you could possibly meet and thus refuse to go private. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paolo85 Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 (edited) Right, I am officially out. I am a weak person, I know. But how is this my fault? I was drooling over this bass the first time it went for sale. Then the second. At least, I thought, ot will go to a good home. But then I saw this!! 😁 Edited February 23, 2023 by Paolo85 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Er... Well... Hmm... There's a blend pot in there, a gigbag and a guitar stand, all of which could be cause for leniency. However, the eq pedal and an actual bass rule me out, out, big time . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
