simon1964 Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 I thought those pictures looked familiar: http://basschat.co.uk/topic/187258-sold-fsft-music-man-stingray-hh/page__p__1813438__hl__stingray%20hh__fromsearch__1#entry1813438 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wriggers Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I would love (could afford) a stingray at that price but I am very wary about replying to the seller. Any tips out there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon1964 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 (edited) I think you're right to be wary. The bass was sold on here less than a week ago, apprently at double the price. He's even using the same pictures (see my link above). At the very least ask how long he has had the bass. If he claims to have had it more than a week, something fishy is going on!

wriggers Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Thanks Simon. Also the map he has posted is just off of the M62 and not York as he says is his location. Think I'll hang on to my £470 until I give it to the taxman Cheers Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete.young Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Very nasty. I think next time I put something valuable up for sale on Basschat I'll put a watermark on the pictures, if I can figure out how to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
