I'd be shocked if that cat doesn't get his 1st negative feedback on ebay for this sale. No way that thing goes for $100 if it's in working condition.

OMG..

The buyer of this Bass Whammy is the seller of my Bass Whammy, which I bought 2 weeks ago for 300 Euros...

Sounds like you are suggesting that someone like me, who is selling their whammy at market value, is greedy/money hungary...? Yes?

iv owned two bass whammys, the first i bought for 250 and ended up selling for $500... the second i bought for $150 and sold it for $650..


not calling you or i money hungry, but sometimes people need to realize that just because you can get a lot for something doesn't make it right to sell it for a lot...

its only now after i sold both of mine for outrages amounts am i realizing what i jerk i feel like.

not saying you should lower your price to accommodate me, im still trying to save/make the money to buy yours from you. but it would be nice if i didnt have to save almost every dime for a month and a half to buy one.

I bought one for $75 right when they started getting near the $200 mark on ebay; I had to take it back because the wife threw a major fit, and I didn't like it enough to fight her over it. Fortunately, I'm divorced now; too bad they're not still $75!

Cool. I don't think there's anything wrong with selling them for what people are paying for them, though. If I had something like that and sold it for less than it was worth, I'd be calling myself a fool for weeks afterward. Maybe it's because my dad collected antique cars when I was a kid; he didn't make much money, so he knew he had to be smart about every car/part purchase. He was pretty amazing at it, too; the hobby supported itself, and he was able to retire from his job and start his own shop by the time he was 50.

It was $75..? And she threw a fit..?

Back OT, I bought an XP100 from the 'Bay for $200. I really enjoy the pedal, but it's definitely not worth more than that. I have a feeling the Bass Whammy probably isn't either.
