it doesn't look like he's trying to "flip" them as such,

Well for what he offered me for mine in a potential px deal I'm not convinced of that.

Go onto Gumtree.co.uk and type "Bass Guitar" into the search & "Ashton-under-Lyne" into the location box...

 

These are all legit basses from one private owner (who I met last week and bought a couple of basses from), who is trying to thin down a massive herd in order to retire and downsize his house.

 

Some lovely bargains here, from very reasonable Squiers to some high end stuff.

 

Apologies in advance for the forthcoming GAS. 🫣

 

Wow.....that's a lot of basses. 

 

Edit: After a quick think, I recall seeing this guy and these these basses on Gumtree for months now, I assumed he was a dealer which makes more sense than a compulsive bass buyer.

Be interesting to know if Gumtree / FB marketplace now report people to HMRC as ebay now do 

 

Yes, they do, if you make more than £2000, which I suspect he has.

I did a deal a while back involving my MIJ 57 RI P bass and a a 75RI Jazz Bass he had.  Nice genuine guy, as pointed out his prices are a little rich but has some lovely stuff
