I never saw the "Buy it now", #?*%*@ and double #?*%*@. I would have snapped it up for that!!!

$1200 BIN for that! ****, I would have considered it - if I had not recently added two to my collection, that is.

I would have never pass up a BIN at $1200 for this bass. I wish I would have seen this while it had the BIN. I would be $1200 more in debt, but well worth it.

And who killed the BIN?

You guessed it. The Emperor.

Thanks, pal.

Oh well, that's what I get for napping on the couch, LOL...I actually thought about logging in around that time. A super cool Rickenbacker IMHO.

If I saw that BIN it would have been mine. I'd have strung it backwards. I'm still keeping an eye on it.

THAT was $1200 BIN???? Good grief....I'd have swapped my arms round to get it for that price.

It was John Leftybass and me neck and neck at the post, and then along came a rank outsider and sniped us both!!! Never mind, that's the way it goes.

John - I didn't know I was bidding against you until I checked the bid history.

LOL, someone had to have sniped that one. I thought I'd give it a shot, but oh well. I've never had anything like that and thought it would be cool.....not in the cards this time. I will now fall on my sword, chivalrous to the last, LOL

Hmmm... i'm puzzled - was the original deal clear? Is this just somebody lookin' for... hmmm... not-so-wize money-spenders? or a buyer wants to re-sell it?..

Sheena, you have to be really careful on ebay. This isn't the real seller making this offer, it's just some thieving ******* trying to rip us off.

rikk · Post by **rikk** » Wed Mar 01, 2006 5:29 pm

I got one as well. I sent it to [email protected].
