I was toying with the idea of $60, but who needs another movie star bass to sell... hasadari Member Username: hasadari Post Number: 95 Registered: 6-2005 Posted on Friday, September 23, 2005 - 6:18 pm:    I hear ya. My choice was dinner for my family at the local diner or the Roman Conqueror. Hmmmmm. It makes you think. hasadari Member Username: hasadari Post Number: 96 Registered: 6-2005 Posted on Friday, September 23, 2005 - 7:07 pm:    And back again . . . . http://cgi.ebay.com/ALEMBIC-Series-II-Custom-5-String-Bass-Guitar_W0QQitemZ7353005859QQcategoryZ4713QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem bassman10096 Senior Member Username: bassman10096 Post Number: 795 Registered: 7-2003 Posted on Friday, September 23, 2005 - 7:09 pm:    Well...wonders really never do cease - It's back again! This time the BIN is $6999, still no reserve, 24 hour auction and now bidders have to be preapproved by the seller (to use the term loosely). It's up to $405. Too rich for my blood. lbpesq Senior Member Username: lbpesq Post Number: 688 Registered: 7-2004 Posted on Friday, September 23, 2005 - 7:49 pm:    And gone again.

As some of you already know, I sold the real Roman Conqueror about two months ago to another club member using ebay's Auction Cafe. Of course, that hasn't stopped the blood-sucking leeches from practicing their trade. I'm thrilled that this bass stayed in this country with one of our own. The buyer promised me that he would give the bass a great home. I'm with you Patrick - I wish that these parasites would go away forever.
