Just shows how little the auctioneer knows about the bass they are selling.

Wolf hankster Senior Member Username: hankster Post Number: 439 Registered: 6-2004 Posted on Friday, March 25, 2016 - 8:38 am:    I thought the same. I get emails from this auction house, and they have some nice stuff, but I haven't bought from it - so not recommending the house, just the bass. I laughed at the screws comment as well. Thanks for pointing out the issues with the auction though. Always good to be warned, and careful. hankster Senior Member Username: hankster Post Number: 440 Registered: 6-2004 Posted on Friday, March 25, 2016 - 8:42 am:    I laughed at the comment about the missing screws as well. As for the terms of the auction, thanks for noting that. I get emails from this auction house, because I signed up a couple of years back when they were auctioning off Gram Parsons' acoustic guitar and I needed to sign up to read more about the guitar. I just lurk - never bought.

I see they have it listed as in "fair" condition. Makes me wonder what it would take to be listed as "poor" condition!

Bill, tgo hankster Senior Member Username: hankster Post Number: 442 Registered: 6-2004 Posted on Friday, March 25, 2016 - 10:04 am:    That would have made Gram's guitar a mere $27,500.00...pass.
