Is this a scam? They're going for about £360 new and this has postage listed for £2.50

Either it’s a brand new seller using eBay for the first time who’s massively underestimated the cost of shipping a bass… or it’s a scammer. 
If I were seriously interested in that bass I’d want to be making that deal in person  either way

So the risk is you get an empty box delivered but cant prove it? Unfortunately, it's the other side of the country from me...

No feedback. 

 

I've seen postage errors loads of times to be honest. 

 

The lack of feedback is the issue for me. 

 

Half price isn't bad. Realistically priced is one way or looking at it. The AI slop is crap as normal

At that price for an extra £150 it’d be far safer to buy a new one. If the seller was close and you could pick it up then okay, but zero feedback and that crazy low postage has got alarm bells written all over it. Those photos could be from anywhere…

Find a pretext to message them asking for another photo of a certain detail. If they can provide it then at least you know the bass exists...

Or I could be straight and say they have no feedback and the postage is too low - can I have a photo of the bass with a hand-written note so I know you have it. I'm tempted.

I see it sold.  Did you go for it?

Yeah. I asked for a pic with a note with today’s date on and it came straight away. I will film the opening in case it’s an empty box scam. Will keep you posted!
