Thornybank Posted July 30, 2010 Posted July 30, 2010 Well, it arrived. Old crap black paint job - not mentioned in the description.... Ports full of spider webs and dust. Grill not torn, but no Logo plate nor "EV Loaded" plate. So I guess the condition rating goes: Mint, Near Mint, Excellent, Very Fine, Fine, Very Good, [u][b]Good[/b][/u], Poor Speaker seems OK, though haven't pushed it. Shoulda waited for pics - but been looking for an extension to put under the combo, so pounced. Not stage worthy as-is, but maybe a good sand a repaint will help...?

Original description does say Mahogany, so I suppose I'd expected (as you did) that it didn't mean Mahogany 'painted black'. Shame as on face value it looked a good deal.

Thornybank Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 I stuck this here becasue feedback is for folk checking folk, and I thought the others who had perused the listing would feel beetter knowing that they didn't miss out on a cherry. Newbie lister... name different from name on bank account paid to. Probably never hear from him on BC again? ...first anything not parfait on BC... ...still the best forum going... Found the branding strip - bad glue/tape job, so fell off in transit - glad I checked the bin bag 'packaging'. When i'm done with the cab, it will look smart and play right - but wishing I didn't ned to throw the hours at it. ANd it will sound fabbo over/under the 1x15 combo. Och, weel.
chris_b Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 You can't be economical with the truth and expect to get away with it when you're selling on BC. I think pertinent comments in the Feedback section are required.
JTUK Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 On the basis of this thread..not a buyer I'd want to do business with. Sorry the deal was a bit sour and hope you sort it.

Thornybank Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 Yeah, well... One tends to interpret the words according to wish, not reality... ...and BC has strong cred... I should have waited for pics from a newbie - will do from now on. But it was a snip if stroiaght - didn't even try to work on the "ono" bit of the price. But hey! The cab is strcturally sound and an EV 12L is worth £75-100. So cost is what, £100 + courier = £125? And it sits nicely under my Mk5 AH150. I guess I could haggle for £25-30 off, but I don't expect a guy who would do that listing would "get it". Maybe doing him a disservice? Screw it - life's too short. I'll get over it. I've done worse... ...many times... ...many... ..choke...
JTUK Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 Sorry, should have been clearer. I meant to say, would not want to do business with that seller... Good that you are happy enough now tho.. lesson learned and all that.
