That is a great price. I think i'd have to give it a 5-2-4 conversion though. Image

That is a great price. Too bad it had to surface now though. I have an MB 4003S/5 on Ebay at the moment.

I know, I know....BOY, do I know!

The BOSS is sitting about 5 feet away just scowling at me....Image

CONGRATULATIONS RIKK! I'm glad you nailed it. If I didn't have a 75th on order, and a 4003FL AFG, and a ........ I'd have nailed it! Image

Rikk, I thought the SAME thing, but senior management didn't bite!

I tried, I really tried. Image

Sorry Ted, I didn't mean to take focus away from your listing.

My senior management was half asleep. She said. "Ahh." I took it as a yes.

And I quote...."DAMN".

At one time, I was able to get away with that. Not any more. She's learned that trick! She now uses it on me!

I usually find out when the Outlaws, I mean the In-laws show up for the holidays! I ask, when did we discuss THIS? And she just smiles and says, I did ASK you, and you said "UHHHH" and took that as "Uh-Huh".

Great score! That was an excellent opportunity to snag a 5er at a bargain price. Congrats! There were no 5ers for sale for several months and as soon as I listed mine - bang! Oh well, it is off the market now and hopefully I can at least recoup my initial cost.

Ted, no bids on yours yet? It took me a while to even find it. It does not say "bass" or "5 string" in the description. I bet if you change that it will get some hits.

There are nearly 40 watchers right now but you are right, I was asleep at the wheel when I put that auction together. Actually, I was distracted and annoyed by Ebay's new selling software. Jeez, some software developers live in their own worlds.

I bet some of the watches are like some of us here. We just like to see what price it is going to get. Midnight Blue. Nice. I don't have any Midnight Blue Ric's......yet.
