Dude, you are lucky! My heart probably would have stopped for a second before hitting the BIN.

I actually thought it over for a few minutes and then when I hit the BIN I thought, I hope someone didn't hit the button while I was mulling this over. I wish it had the vintage case but I think I did pretty good on the price.

Wow, I can't believe we are seeing another one so soon, and in Jetglo, too! Congratulations, Kendall, and well-done! Image

It's odd to see a run of jetglo V63's like this, what's next I wonder? I've been looking quietly for one, I really wanted a fireglo or mapleglo, but with the market as it is these days you can't be picky.

Well Kendal, I can afford to be picky and am looking specifically for a JG v63 as everyone knows. I will certainly be in line when you find the color that you more desire. If I could only stay vigilant 24/7 I could snag these middle of the night deals!

Funny thing is I search all the time. Never have gotten lucky like that. BTW, with the price you paid, you could still splurge for the case. I would.

I was checking the bay before I left for work and there it was, I almost passed but I've been wanting a V63 for about 4 years, I always was too late or didn't have the cash laying around. The best still by far was Gregg's $500 Blackstar snatch in my opinion. I've got an empty vintage case already waiting for it, need an fugly gig bag? I'm wondering if he priced it based on the other V63 that went a week ago?
