Kev Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 Glad you pointed out it wasn't a Warwick or an Ibanez, i was confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingrayPete1977 Posted May 9, 2010 Author Share Posted May 9, 2010 No need to be arsey mate, Its they are sort of main stream basses some one interested in searching for ebay also might like one of these, but who will search Bass Collection or SGC Nanyo?

Kev Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 (edited) It's keyword spamming mate, your listing will be pulled if they notice it or if anyone reports it, just a heads up Edited May 9, 2010 by Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingrayPete1977 Posted May 9, 2010 Author Share Posted May 9, 2010 Im guessing your a warwick fan then? I hope your not offended with the connection but these are excellent quality basses just not very well known and Im doing what I can to bring it to the attention of people looking for similar basses.I have not had that problem before although I did try and sell a Les paul copy on there and had that pulled for the word copy and you cant use "style" or "replica" either so what else can you call it?

stingrayPete1977 Posted May 11, 2010 Author Share Posted May 11, 2010 I got the heads up now about Kev from another member! Anyway things are going ok on ebay with offers of £200 but after fees that will leave me down at £180,If someone wants to step in and take it for £200 in my hand I will do it as I can pull the listing and save the difference its a great bass for £200! Thanks,Pickup from the stafford area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 (edited) i'd give you the heads up about EBS Freak as well, but im a little more above such petty things Decent sale price in the end mate, sorry that you misinterpreted my intentions, by no means was i being arsey, perhaps the comment needed a suitable smiley face to show that welcome to the forum, hope you hang around!

I have given the buyer a request for a refund which I presume he will want,Looks like a future ebs pre-amp and some new pups once the new stingray arrives and has been paid for.It was going to be an option anyway.

If someone wants "item X" then they'll search for "item X". If something like that pops up, then i'll skip past it. Sorry, not having a go, just saying, it really bugs me. Ebay tend to pull listings like that a lot anyway, it's against the rules, and you stand to lose your listing fees by breaking them. Just a heads up.

EBS_freak Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 (edited) [quote name='Kev' post='834560' date='May 11 2010, 07:19 PM']i'd give you the heads up about EBS Freak as well, but im a little more above such petty things [/quote] Hang on. What's this to do with me? I don't see anywhere where stingrayPete1977 said anything about a heads up from me. And as for petty, have you had a look through your history of posts, particularly in the for sale section? Do you actually have any intention of ever buying the things you comment on? - or do you just enjoy ripping threads apart?

stingrayPete1977 Posted May 12, 2010 Author Share Posted May 12, 2010 Reply to [u]Budget bassist [/u]first,If you read my response to Kev you will see I fully agree, When you are searching for a p-bass and you get viagra and car seat covers it annoys me too but if the item is relevent for instance someone who likes Warwick basses and Ibanez soundgears they may like Bass Collections too as they probably the closest thing between them of a similar era,style,price and quality.Chances are some people who are very knowlegeable on the other makes may never have even heard of a BC so how would anyone find it on ebay? And when you take into account that generally you get one a month on there its hardly going to jam up your pc is it? If you see general tat go ahead and flag it up to ebay but if its relevent I think maybe you could spend your time a little more productively (in my case it would be spelling lessons so dont start on that). And now for [u]Kev[/u] well as EBS_freak says where did he become involved? Your reputation preceeds you Im affraid! There were a few private messagers after your comments warning me of your general liking of shall we say "Nit picking"? Especialy on items you either have little or no knowledge on or any interest in purchasing. I know for a fact EBS_freak knows what he is on about so im going to listen to him for advice on all matters musical ,Laters all.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
