Is that price for real ???? WOW...how can you go wrong?

I just bought a Transblack Pro IV (toyed with buying a V but the band I'm in at the moment doesn't really suit fivers - and anyway I've already got two fivers)

I paid £315 for mine, which is what, $500? I'm bowled over by the quality and sound of the bass for such a low price, but for the equivalent of around £30?? I'm lost for words.

Yep, fingers crossed! So far I'm 1 for 3 on these insane deals, but that "1" keeps my hope alive for another one!

I'm not much for 5-strings; but I've always wanted a T-Bird... But not enough to pay top dollar for one.

Fingers crossed, I suppose!

I don't see it happening, but I took a shot. I just hope it's not another big box with a gig bag inside.

Took a shot. Coming from Music123.com I expect them to honor it!

I'm afraid it'll be like the 79.00 G&L Tribute.

They offered G&L L2000's (left handed) for 79 bucks. I was going to flip one since I am right handed. A big box arrived a few days later with a G&L gig bag inside. No bass. I called and bitched. They said it was an error and there was no way they could sell one at that price. They gave me the gig bag.
