Very ethical of you. Personally I look at buying and selling things very dispassionately. Value is relative. When there are lots of buyers for a scarce object it’s value goes up and the reverse is also true. I wanted a Stingray for years but there were few for sale and many people that wanted one. I bid what I could afford and constantly lost out on bids. Was the seller unethical? They were getting as much as they could so not really. In the last 12 months there have been more 2EQ 4H’s on the market (colour, year, neck composition didn’t matter) so I continued to bid and got one at slightly less than my previous top bids. This was its going value! It was what someone was willing to pay at the time. The seller was happy. I was happy. In a few years I may sell it for more or less depending on circumstances (both personal and wider economic). There is no morality unless someone takes pleasure out of someone else’s misfortune.

Smoke 'Em - Fun loving criminals

The SUB and Sterling range are very good. I had a Ray34 and there is not a massive difference between that and a genuine Ray. Certainly not several hundred £’s worth of difference for the used range.

£900 would be a not too insulting offer though. Some you win, some you lose. A lot of Ray purists will insist on the original pickup and they are pretty much impossible to find.

Why not make an offer on this (not mine BTW) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/124752627736 Gigged and not original pickup. Such things affect value but as a working bass one of a number of reasonable value £800 to £1000 Stingrays out there.

I think TJ1 has started the thread more from investment than muso perspective.

No such thing to a musician. Definitely such a thing to a collector. Both my favourite bases are not worth much. One is a Bitsa I have devalued, one is a brand associated with producing dross.
