Karl, is that one $1000CDN?

Yap... It is...
But you have to consider that here (in canada) we have the same prices for Ric as the states... No matter if it's CDN or not... kinda surprising...
I just bought a 4003 for 1579$CDN (plus taxes =1800something)wich is the same as for the states... I tought it would cost me like 3000$CDN or something

So, yeah it's CDN, but I don't know if that's relevant

I said to them that I would pay like 500$ or less for it, but they said they were sure to sell it anyway over 900$
But hey, admit it, if you want to replace these pickups with the originals, plus replace the pickguard and fix the screw holes, you'll end up with a bass that costs you around 2000 and still, it's value wouldn't exceed 500$... bleh

I was just wondering, with the exchange rate, that could be a good deal!

1.00 USD
United States Dollars = 1.23369 CAD
Canada Dollars

Chris, What's it up to now?
I emailed the guy and asked for the reserve.
He's not giving it up just yet.
That bass is going to go for more than I can afford.
