alyctes Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 I hear good things about SR500s, in their price bracket. This is not in that price bracket... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ibanez-SR500-Bass-Guitar-Mahogany-Levys-strap-/251560255152?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item3a9228deb0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassBus Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 But it does have a genuine Levi's strap and new battery. That must account for nearly £1600. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alyctes Posted July 15, 2014 Author Share Posted July 15, 2014 Probably started as a typo, he actually wanted £189 and added the 0 by mistake... ... and either didn't check it, or thought he'd chance his arm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassassin Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 I wondered that, but that would be pretty silly-cheap for an SR500, unless it's completely trashed.

alyctes Posted July 15, 2014 Author Share Posted July 15, 2014 (edited) Ohh, now I get it. Maybe he thinks it's one of these?

If you buy believing it's a 5000, you've done yourself out of a lot of money. Edited July 15, 2014 by alyctes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smaz Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Unless he sold it outside of ebay, and upped the price to prevent bids/buyers? Second hand, they go for £200 - £300. I have had one & indeed they are fantastic basses for the money, but not quite £1800 good... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brensabre79 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Maybe the wife made him sell it. Then, when it didn't sell she broke it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
