somebody got to grab that dolphin!!! marco? it is a non-broadneck with led's btw

 

[DiMarco]

That's been on there for a very long time.

 

[herb vibes]

because it was made for only one person

 

[Henrythe8]

Not that expensive, though. Have it fretted an you have a really decent priced Pro1 5er...
I personnaly can't get the white SN out of my head.

 

[Kev]

Yup, been up for a long while, very good price really so I'm a little concerned something is up with it?

That Starbass though...what a deal!

 

[DemBoneZ]

Just try and get as many pics as you can Kev, like make sure neck is not warpped or whatever. But id go for it!

 

[thefitz]

Wow, that Dolphin is priced fairly.

Maybe someone is interested in a relatively fair priced Streamer Jazzman 5-string with a comically placed strap button:

Buddy's selling his heavily modded Thumb with a reserve and a $3k BIN price... this should be entertaining:

Eh. I would avoid buying an item that expensive from an Ebay seller with zero feedback..

Precisely why it'll be a good deal. The only risk is losing out on money between the time you file a PayPal complaint and the time you get your full refund.

Auctions like this are an ebayer's dream.

 

[shaftbass]

Ah. Do a little research and find out how many Paypal claims go smoothly

 

[thefitz]

Every one I've had. Even for inconsequential ♣♣♣♣. And you're assuming you'll need the claim.

My point is that situations like these are stigmatized so badly that you can get a great deal. We live in a world where people won't spend $5 on a 95% chance to win $20.

Korean Adam Clayton signature b-stock, sold by Thomann:



Another one, but neck damaged:

I hate this thread.

Go for it. I've got 450 ebay feedback and who knows how many forum transactions between automotive stuff and musical equipment, so I've had my share of dealings with Paypal. It's true things usually go the buyer's way in the event there's a claim.

There's a chance everything will be fine. I'm willing to let others roll the dice on that.

Lesson number one buying and selling on the internet: Be wary of new sellers selling expensive items with zero feedback.

Post pictures of the bass when it arrives!

Carry on

Must've been dropped or something those Claytons.
