Monckyman Posted July 13, 2011 Posted July 13, 2011 John just gifted me a set of double bass strings that he could easily have sold. He didn`t even charge me postage. Very much a shining example of the forum community spirit and I hope he is repaid in a hundred different ways. A massive thank you. Dave. Quote
bartelby Posted August 3, 2011 Posted August 3, 2011 (edited) I don't think I've left feedback before so I'll do a summary. I've been a buyer from Oldslapper twice and a seller once (he's like my own personal shop) He's always been the perfect gent, always offers tea and coffee. Communication is always fantastic and he always describes his stuff accurately. Recently sold the Markbass head back to him, due to the uncertainty of whether he'd be there when I dropped it off he paid in full in advance. A truly great, and trustworthy bloke. EDIT: and the people who live near him are also wonderful! Edited August 3, 2011 by bartelby Quote

Old Horse Murphy Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 Just met up with John in another dodgy Layby deal which saw him take possession of my Jazz Bass. A really nice guy and 100% reliable- thanks a lot John Quote
jimbobothy Posted November 16, 2011 Posted November 16, 2011 I just bought 'Band in a box' from John, had a slight oversight but all sorted out with no problems. Count Basie still keeps asking for moisturiser all the time for his dry skin but apart from that the band are swinging , Recommended BC'er. Quote
bremen Posted November 25, 2011 Posted November 25, 2011 Bought a bass body from the man. It arrived, in perfect condition, five minutes after I'd clicked the Paypal button. How *does* he do it? Quote
dodgnofski Posted December 16, 2011 Posted December 16, 2011 What a great Guy, - bought a cab from John which arrived in absolute bomb proof packaging & was at least as good, if not better than described. Excellent communication & a pleasant, easy deal - can't recommend highly enough!! Thanks again John Quote
Old Horse Murphy Posted December 28, 2011 Posted December 28, 2011 Just met up with John for the second time to re-purchase the Jazz Bass I sold to him a short while ago Lovely guy and completely trustworthy- thanks John Quote
Oldman Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Bought an Epi 1 x 12" from John just before Christmas only unwrapped it last night, took me half an hour to recover it from all the packaging, a deal well wrapped up, a painless transaction. Perfect does what it says on the tin. Quote
Robin UK Posted January 16, 2012 Posted January 16, 2012 Sold my/his Status Groove 5 back to him. Let him know i was thinkign of moving it on. Dropped it off the next week for cash. Easy as always.... although i miss it. Quote
noelk27 Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 [quote name='oldslapper' timestamp='1318074590' post='1397833']4 PAGES! Aaaagh this has to stop.[/quote] You're worse than me! That aside, sold an Aria to John, which, unfortunately, didn't work out for him due to a balance issue. Easy chap to deal with, who messaged at all the relevant points to update on transaction progress. Cheers, N Quote
KiOgon Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 It was my pleasure to supply a special little wiring kit for a project of Johns, great communication along the way, great guy to deal with. Cheerz, John Quote

FlatEric Posted February 17, 2012 Posted February 17, 2012 Just bought a lovely Aria Laser Active from John, which he had from noelk27. A truly cracking bass. Very easy, sweet deal - VERY pleasant to deal with and the packaging. . . . . Absolutely Amazing. Thanks mate, top job. Cheers. Quote
