Haha well Vince then I will have 3 left to deal with 
My store is plump full of gear that doesn't move and the lame buyer for the company just keeps sending more and more and more.. I have ran out of wall space to hang g**tars and basses.

I'm not a picky dude Mooks, I'll take the lot of them if I must! 
But in all seriousness that seems to be a growing problem I've been noticing...Both of my local music stores are storing brand new gear in attics, closets, and ((allegedly)) rented storage facilities because they simply aren't moving them out fast enough D:

That is a very sad thing to hear my friend. It really bothers me going into work every day and seeing that we have the same gear from 05-06 and it just does not want to move. Maybe I should find a new store haha!
If I wanted to get a tone like flea and Timmy C form RATM what amp would be good?
I play currently on a Fender Mexican Deluxe j bass and i have a line 6 LD15 amp. the LD15 has 1 measly 8" speaker that puts out very low volume and poor tone for my bass. I was doing research and I was thinking an Ampeg BA115 or BA112. I was also was considering a Behringer or Peavy amp but ive seen mixed reviews. Im on a sorta low budget of about $400 max i could spend on an amp. If anyone has any suggestions i would be grateful. thanks

I would definitely try a bigger amp! Try something around 90 watts and up! Ampeg is legit too! Some of their B series gear isn't too pricey and pretty solid!
Duude. Really, anything bigger than an eight inch speaker ought to do you just fine. 1x15 will work, 1x12 will do almost as good. 2x12 is pretty grand. Ampeg combos, SWR combos, even a Fender Bassman.
For $500 I'd rather get a used SUB. Gets the Stingray tone (well, it is a Stingray (or Sterling)) and it's built like a tank.
Seriously, $500 is a lot for a beginner bass.

they've gotten mixed reviews, theres a few videos on youtube where you can hear how they sound. I don't think they're worth $500.
