Jebo1 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Hi mate, the negative feedback you've recieved in trying to sell the bass the first time round would put most bidders off. I'd be surprised if you get any bids to be honest... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A guy in america asked to buy the bass and that he would pay the shipping fees...i was fine with this...then he asked if i could declare the bass at a stupidly low value to avoid import tax...which i wasnt over the moon with, as if it got damaged i would potentially lose £1200.00 if it was decared at $300.00...so i told him that there was no way i was going to send it uninsred and to send it fully insured on a 2-3day recorded carrier would only cost £180.00 on royalmail which was much cheaper than fedex and UPS who wanted rougly £300.00...after a few days he came back saying if i wouldnt send it unisured and at a lower value then i could forget about the sale...so i said fine i'll hold onto it and thanks for messing me around...then i left negative feedback, then he did the same...

warwickhunt Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 I don't think the neg will be the end of the world or unduly worry genuine buyers, especially as the issues surrounding it are quite transparent even if you aren't privvy to the info that we have. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine it would as the Infinity was based on this Ltd Ed and shares most of the construction details.

You can get the negative removed if you file with ebay. I'd put your phone number on the listing and get people to speak to you about it. The only problem I can see is that people don't see through the negative feedback. You do have the option of revising your listing so I'd do that! Good luck, I like tha bass a lot!

warwickhunt Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 You can't get that neg' removed regardless of the circumstances unless it is libelous or has your personal details... believe me I know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderthumbs Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 I know it probably doesn't help much, but I tend to put in the old "anyone with a feedback less than 10, email to confirm details of bid otherwise your bid will be removed". Helps towards putting off potential timewasters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
