Hurry if it's a deal to you, Amazon has a funny way of teasing with a sale price and then pulling it...http://www.amazon.com/Spector-ReBop4...1302679&sr=1-2

I've ordered a few things for dirt cheap on amazon and here are the things I've noticed:
1) They're scratch n dent or returned items
2) The price drops every 1-3 days (I've been watching this bass's price a week)
3) They're grouped in sets of two and when one sells, after it's processed the other will shoot way up in price

Have the items you've ordered been in new condition?

According to "someone who shall remain nameless" at Spector, these Amazon offerings are seconds.

Yes, these cheap Amazon items are frequently -- but not always -- B (or C) stock and returns/refurbs, though they never say so.

They're in pretty close to new condition usually with all tags, kinda like floor model condition. I was thinking about this bass if it dropped lower, but you can get a used one with a hard case at the price it's at now.
