Well, I feel really angry/sad because of this:
My mother's husband lives in the USA (I live in Argentina) and I asked hm to buy me a bass because he was coming on a week.
The first bass I wanted was a a NOS black cherry Rebop that was at 900 at MF. When I told him to buy it, the bass was already sold. Then I asked him to buy a new rebop, but the only store that had it in stock was at NY and it become very expensive because of taxes.
Then I saw a sapphire black sterling at ebay and won the auction at $1260. When the seller was packaging the bass he discovered that it had a problem with electronics and said it would take 3 weeks to repair it. I didn't have time, so I bought him a black cherry sterling (paying the dif) and had to pay extra shipping charges to send it by UPS air to NY becuase I didn't have enough time to wait for the free ground shipping. Today It arrived to my mother's husband house and it had two big cracks on the case, so (after thinking a while) I told him to return it. Now I don't know what to do. I want a bass, but he's flying this week. How can I get a new Sterling or Rebop in one day??
