No, there isn't, when others go unsold for $900. One like that is not worth $2000+, although I guess it is really "worth what someone is willing to pay".

Wow...got to wonder about the shill aspect. $2100 for that bass is far too much.

It does, however, look very nice. Maybe a $1400-1500 instrument, but not 25-35% more than that.

When they get over $1000 for 'em they're "instruments". Below that that, they are "axes"? {:^)

He had a good story that seemed believeable, that's half the battle, it does look in really nice shape, I wouldn't have paid anywhere near that for it though.

Read the feedback for the winning bidder. The whole deal is fishy. The guy had perfect feedback until recently. It looks like a hijacked account.

I went into GC today looking for a little something, (Which I didnt find) and the helpful girl at the door said "You might want to check out our internet auctions, you might find it there!" I said, "Oh, I know all about those..."
