I've had a couple of people ask for buy it now prices, but that would negate the sport of auctioning it! TBH I've never sold a bass on ebay before, so I just wanna see what the response is like. Good luck bidding, though! Edited November 13, 2007 by theosd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
queenofthedepths Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Absolutely certain you'll only accept local collection? Otherwise I'd ask my fiancée to bid on it for me, but we'd have no way of picking it up at all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you can organise a courier, although I'm reluctant to post it cos it only comes in a soft case and I feel you'd be paying so much on top of what it'll sell for you may as well get one from thomann direct.

I don't think the value of the instrument warrants that, regardless of its quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The etiquette here as far as I have seen, is that you offer it for sale, if it doesn't sell, then put it on the bay. Most people, even then, will take an offer at the asking price from a BCer and end the auction. If it's an ebay only thing, it's best put in the ebay forum below this one. It's a bit annoying to look down the 'For Sale' list, see an item you'd really like, only to find it's not for sale here but on ebay, and then the seller keeps bumping it... Perhaps I'm just in a bad mood! Chris Edited November 19, 2007 by Beedster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it had been fair, and given that I live just down the road from you, I would have popped up that evening and paid cash At least on here if you get a low offer you can say no, on ebay, if only one person bids and it's low, you gotta sell!
