Thanks for all the helpful advice. Bass Gallery should really change their website

Hi all, I am considering making an online purchase from the Bass Gallery, but their returns Ts&Cs are putting me off. They are saying no returns, even for online purchases. I am concerned that, as buying blind online, there is a slim chance that I might wish to return the bass. It is not a small purchase (>£1400). Are they going against UK law?

Interesting, did you dispute through Ebay or Paypal?

Thanks for the replies. I imagine I will have to post the bass back, at my expense. Coupled with the fact that I already paid a lot for postage initially. Does anyone know whether it would be better to go through Ebay or Paypal, seeing as I can't do both (I assume)?

Hi all, I have purchased a bass that was not as described and want to return it. The seller is being unresponsive and unhelpful. There seems to be two avenues to dispute it, one being on Ebay and the other being Paypal. In the past, in the rare instances I had a problem, I raised a Paypal dispute and it was always straightforward. Has anyone raised an Ebay dispute? How do they compare? What is to stop someone raising both? Thanks for any insight

Would something like this work? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/141494557168

Hi all, I have this on my board, but its 5v mini usb so currently I have to power it separately, which is super annoying. Is there such thing as a 5v to 9v converter, so I can power it off my daisy chain? https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08393DLGV/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Thanks!

So I haven't really found a viable option yet either here or in the link mention previously, for posting a £700 bass (in a soft case & cardboard box) within the UK, fully insured. Pretty crazy

That only seems to cover £125

I'm struggling with who to use. Royal Mail won't take it because it's too big, and Parcelforce won't insure it. Who else can I use? Thanks

I have looked at the Sire but they've all been too heavy

Thanks!

Hi all, Does anyone have any insured courier recommendations for posting a bass within the UK? I purchased one off ebay and the seller has asked for close to £100. Thanks

Thanks, I usually buy used but prices seem to have shot up, whereas places like Peach Guitars have very good new prices

Haven't been able to find one used unfortunately. Think I'd prefer the humbuckers to single coils... I play heavy rock

It was this one https://reverb.com/item/64478379-mtd-kingston-z-5-bass?utm_source=android-app&utm_medium=android-share&utm_campaign=listing&utm_content=64478379
