This entire page is freaking me out: http://guitar.bluetreevintage.com/bass-guitars/
There's links to a crapload of really cheap vintage basses to the point where I have a bad feeling in my gut about some of these....
EDIT: by the way I'm not like advertising for these guys or anything I'm genuinely confused

1. they are bidding auctions; that's not the final price.
2. the links redirect to ebay. this is probably just an ebay seller's site where they advertise all their own listings.
although most of these listings aren't vintage... most items there listed as "vintage" are NOT pre 1980 (the definition of vintage i believe) but some (like the grabber) ARE vintage.
[rant]
these are all legitimate, ebay auctions and you'd all know that if you had bothered to click the links and do at least a little bit of exploring.

I actually did click on the links before I posted. Still think it's BS (then again, I tend to think "vintage" is synonymous with "old BS" anyway.)

again, most of that stuff isn't vintage at all... it's actually just a random collection of links from different sellers... i have no idea what the purpose of that site is though. but, some of that stuff is defo vintage: like the grabber. (i mean, MAYBE it's a fake but i somehow doubt that)
