I can't say I've picked that vibe up from anyone in particular, but I'm glad and proud it was spotted, our emails appear to have had an impact and it looks to be heading towards a happy ending

Oh absolutely. Most stores tend to protect themselves by not covering return postage or not refunding postage paid, which is fairly standard unless its faulty goods, but its interesting the likes of Bax (I think?) make a big deal of offering a free "trial" period and cover all postage costs. I feel there must be a hidden fair usage policy, as otherwise people could run riot with it.

I don't think its about not wanting people to enjoy their basses, and more about insurance issues that may arise, should they go missing and potentially be viewed as counterfeit. A healthy discussion, I think? Literally wasn't something that occurred to me until reading this thread, and I'm wondering this this is why the many and several Ric copies and similar often ship with a blank TRC with a fake TRC in the case, to avoid counterfeit accusations? The risk here is the bass being confiscated if the Police need to get involved, rather than returned to Mark, but given insurance isn't involved here I think its unlikely there would be any opportunity for any complaint to be raised, and hopefully Parcelforce will just sort it out with a dash of compensation for the ridiculousness of it all.

All PMs responded to, quite a few bits gone but i'll update once no longer pending etc. -
This.

I mean IN fairness, this is more than likely incompetence more than anything else. I'm sure this parcel has ended up in the auction house pile in error as I'm sure they must hang on to it longer. Or they shipped the 2025 Q4 pile earlier than they should have. I think it's a bold conspiracy to suggest it was a deliberate act of the company, unless they wanted rid of it as it's effectively counterfeit and tried to get some money for it.
-
Yeah, it's such a shame Mark puts the Fender logo on, as that could cause real issues here I feel, not least because the auction house has used the name too.

I have also emailed, I think it would be of real help if we all did.
-
That's unbelievable, unclaimed goods?!

No cheap jibe intended, no part of the post ignored either. Saying you don't want to mess them around too much doesn't really overwrite the ultimatum you gave them, if that's what you actually sent them? Of course if you ended your email to them with "Don't worry about it though, you're cheaper than others anyway" then fair enough!

This is why I couldn't work in customer service. I would absolutely HATE to deal with customers like you 😂 It's unfortunate timing but sales are sales! If there was any warning, shops would never sell anything out of sale. Though I'm sure there's no chance they'll pay for postage for the return, so even if you did return it, can't be a huge saving.

Little amp, bass and dog mixed with ridiculously oversized pedals, love it!

Absolutely loving this PJB BG400. Will grab a C4 extension when funds allow for the ultimate tiny 500w 8 speaker rig!
-
I'm not sure I picked up on the ease of use aspect of the update, what has changed there? I thought it was just usable presets, but have they increased the ability to make adjustments on the pedal without the editor? Still sorely tempted to try a VIP, but I think i'll wait until 4.5 is out in the wild for a while.

Having a bit of a tidy up and letting go of some stuff I realistically just don't need at the mo! Parts draw stuff so unless indicated we're not taking about mint condition here, mostly just dirty marked cables but all are tested and work as they should. Postage at cost depending on what you buy, probably just a couple quid. More bits you buy the cheaper I'll lump it all together! 10ft Warwick Male XLR to TRS - As new and unused - £8 Ernie Ball Rainbow Strap - £Sold GHS Strings Rainbow Strap - £Sold iRig Guitar Interface - Can barely remember what this is, but I think it plugs into a mic socket and allows you to plug in your guitar, listen with headphones and use with apps, back in the days of iPhones having sockets! - £5 George L Cables - Solderless patch cables of various lengths, two plastic caps missing but they're just cosmetic - £Sold ~27cm Neutrik plug (Fender branded original In think?)
