cetera Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 Might be an idea to introduce yourself, say where you are, where the bass is, why you're selling etc etc....
XB26354 Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 As you're presumably in the US it might also be worth knowing that any potential buyer in the UK will have to pay Import Duty and 17.5% VAT.
warwickhunt Posted February 23, 2010 Posted February 23, 2010 I'd LOVE to see a pic of your Spector and Warwick side-by-side.
Kiwi Posted February 23, 2010 Posted February 23, 2010 Sawasdee krup khun samauri, what part of BKK are you in? Do you ever visit some of the music stores in the malls? I've been to a couple and they seemed unfriendly. Are they all like this?

[/quote] Im going to be bold and take a brave step. without causing world war III I personally feel that its about time basschat.co.uk was an exclusive site for bassplayers in the uk. the politically correct members may shoot me down in flames and I have no problem with our EU counterparts (as I am fluent in 4 european languages and have many a friend worldwide) but when we have a .co.uk site, surely it should remain within the UK(especially for sales). there was a time when Britannia ruled the waves you know. To me there is nothing wrong with www.basschat.holland.com or www.basschat.spain.com. for thoses in respective countries to enjoy. that would leave www.basschatthailand.com to go and sell his warwick and spector basses on ebay or around around the continent of asia without arousing such suspician on this site.

warwickhunt Posted February 24, 2010 Posted February 24, 2010 I think that it has already been highlighted over on the Warwick forum Nakhon but due to recent incidents where a seller (or sellers) from Thailand have tried to con/scam buyers, folks from outside of Thailand are very cautious with International sales. The [b][u]identical[/u][/b] wording (copying) of your responses (whether prompted for or not) on the two forums would indicate that English isn't a strong second language for you so I hope you can understand that people may have concerns about the validity of your sale. It was suggested over on the Warwick forum that you possibly get photographs of you, the bass and the receipt or bill of sale for the bass, ideally away from what appears to be a music store, I think that would seem reasonable especially as the Moderators over on the Warwick forum would likely be able to validate the sale of such an expensive bass through the retailers receipts.
