Here's your answer:

"The seller ended the listing early and cancelled all bids."

He cancelled 3 bids, one of them was $2,500.

If he turned down 2,500.00 for that bass it had to be a scam !

If that isn't a scam, then someone found a nice bass and just wanted to see what people are willing to pay for it. Probably a scam though.

Sorry, folks. I didn't read the details. I think Randy was right about somebody just wanting to see what it was worth without actually intending on coming through with a sale.

Is that a 73? Did the 73's have the full width inlays? That one doesn't appear to have them, but it's hard to tell from the pics.

73 was the transitional year. Full width inlays went away around April or May? (hope I'm right)although as you say, it is hard to tell if those are full width. That is one nice looking bass. My '73 is a December (ML), so all the goodies were gone by then.

Matt, can I ask you what the final price was? I collect 73's and it's just for my mental database. If it's confidential I understand.
