Are they kidding?!

There's a seller on eBay that has Thunderbird truss rod covers for over $800...are they for real?

Ebay is full of crazy crap.

Probably the old “my spouse told me I had to sell some stuff- can’t say I didn’t try!” routine.

Well, yeah, we know that ...just...is this REALLY what they're expecting? I ran across this looking for a Firebird cover...I contacted them, hearing they were in the process of moving, it'd be changed when done...come the T-bird and it's that way with this one...

i don't see a problem: the universe as we know it spits out buyers for stuff like that every single minute!

i hope the seller has a good supply!

they look kinda cheesy, maybe there's a premium for fugly, like relicing
EPIPHONE THUNDERBIRD TRUSS TIE ROD COVER (BLACK / GOLD) | eBay

Actually, I'd take a blank one...I've been all 9ver the web trying to locate a blank.
Anyone here have a reasonably priced blank white TRC and pickguard? Greatly appreciate it...

Look at the sold prices, only 26 dollars. that tells me the seller is out of stock, but wants to keep listing up, seen it many times...

Thanks...that I would do...I learn something new every day on these forums...I'll keep an eye peeled...

Can't hurt to make contact with seller to get more info. May have more coming

 

[Windowliquor]

Doesn’t even come with mounting screws!

Besides bass, I also play synth.
There's a seller on eBay that posts a lot of awesome vintage analog synths (juno-60, minimoog, prophet, etc) on auction-style listings that start at $25 where the description reads "the "buy now" price is $3K" (always $3K) and "all bids will be removed" bla bla bla...just reeks of scam.
Ebay used to be better than that.

 

[Griev]

If you look at the previous ones sold, they were all 26 dollars. Somebody hit a key by accident I think.

Did you see where they ship from?

Genoa City! Where's my Y&R friends at?

 

[Fender_Bender]

Isn’t this what Rickenbacker covers sell for ?.

I had contacted them about the Firebird TRCs...he said they were moving and would adjust the price after the move. That was last year...I'd hoped they'd be moved by now...

One of my friends sells a lot of stuff on Fee Bay and says when you see an outrageous price it is a way for some folks to launder money. I can't say I quite understand it but he's rarely wrong about the stuff he tells me.

In the same vein, there’s a Peavey grill logo for sale on reverb for 50$. It’s a bit shy to your truss cover but non the way; the amp I was refurbishing will stay brand-less.

For 800 Paraguayan Guaranís you can have a truss rod cover made of colorful Ñandutí produced by enchanted magic spiders.

The chaman in charge of its production must hypnotize each one of the 8 eyes each spider has, tough task to accomplish as these damned creatures can’t stay quiet during the process.
