Probably bought the wrong ones by accident... and may still be unaware of it.

What I want is a list of sellers who're known for pushing their luck. If they do it once, they will do it again. Next time it might be more subtle.

eBay still doesn't offer a "Ban this chancer" facility, then?

Mm. Any chance of a crash in the market, do we think?

Does it run on Ubuntu Linux? If so, yes please.

I'd have thought so, but you never know. Someone else might be just as daft.

Wow. That's gorgeous, and I want one.

I can't explain how to keep it under control. However, I will say that if you have more money than sense, soon you won't have. Deal with that now, or you'll wind up like me, with an angry bank manager and more basses than I know what to do with. Disposal decisions: Anything you're not playing can go. Anything you're sure you won't need in the next six months can be got rid of, unless it's impossible to find another or it's actually appreciating.

Problem is, you need to know how to spell it before you can Google it

Completely agree that fivers are mainly for having more notes under your hand. The extra notes are handy occasionally but it's the simplicity and ease of fingering that does it for me.

I've been wondering if I should move it on. It's not as though I need it.

You sold it to me, and I've still got it. I never play it (partly because I'm almost exclusively fretless these days). It's decent enough and very good for the cost, but doing something about the strap button position would really help.

Adrian's a BCer and decent guy. Might be worth contacting him directly.

I've not seen this done before. I wonder what it sounds like? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Weston-Thunder-1-Bass-guitar/323171402357?hash=item4b3e844275:g:9vkAAOSwvshauOuO
