[Gord_oh]

...i hope you are reading this.

looking at bass parts on ebay and i stumble across this body. it is advertised as a fender, but it obviously is a squier vm jazz body. i messaged the seller to let them know in case they didnt and this is what happened.

Dear stratconnect,

that's a squier body. the whole bass goes for what youre asking.

- gord_oh!

Dear gord_oh!,

no the whole bass goes for 299.00 plus tax, and a gig bag and what other extras you buy. This bass is going for 249. delivered to your door. hows that for a peice of fine gold. Plus the neck on these are ****, I'll tell you what, you buy this body and I'll through in the neck with a set of big plate fender logo tuners that cost on ebay 75 bucks you pay the shipping.. how does that sound. Because I don't even think you have the money to buy the strings for this bass. What's the matter, wifey out tonight, nothing to do but bust on Caroline. No life huh.. must be from the south aren't ya, oh well, that sucks.. well my offer still stands you buy the bass, I'll throw in the neck and a set of almost like new shinny Fender logo tuners,, and a back neck plate so you can screw it on. oh wow, lets see, that's like, oh man, Stratosphere would be having a baby doing that. do you bust him and say, hey man, that's a parted fender your asking way too much for.. do you.. I can do that. and guess what, I have the money too.. I just don't feel like sitting here all day taking new guitars appart or searching the net for them cheaper then the store so morons could buy the parts higher then they could buy the guitar.. no, I'm just a woman with 40 years of biss experience who don't give her **** away to lifers like you. who have nothing to do but critisize instead of doing something with your life beside getting drunk in front of the computer and saying hey man, that should be like that nickslist guys price, free.. for me.. sorry,, I work hard for my money. no go sober up. at least your not telling me it's maple. thank you.. Caroline

Captain obvious strikes.

Doesn't change the fact that the seller sent one douchetastic response.

 

[ZoomBoy]

She sounds lovely doesn't she? The item description is a bit misleading. Low feedback count and she recently got an interesting neg feedback over doing something kinda shady. Ignore it...she will reap what she sows.

 

[Braddock]

Geeze that's pretty pathetic, usually an outburst of sorts would mean possible insecurity, guess they don't want their scam to be caught, I dunno, lol.

 

[lfmn16]

That's why I never try to help these doosh bags. You get the last laugh because she sounds like a bitter, hate-filled, miserable excuse for a human being and having to be HER is much worse revenge than anything you could say or do.

 

[RustyAxe]

So, did you buy it?

 

[plankspanker13]

A fool and his money are soon parted, and only a fool would pay the asking price for what's offered. $180 might be a more reasonable asking price, and at $160, it's actually a fair price, for what is pictured.

 

[M.Mannix3]

Wow. The Squier VM is good and the neck isn't complete **** as she said but what a bitch.

 

[tdub0199]

I sent her a message as well telling her pretty much the same thing you did Gord Oh..... let's see if she replies to me.....

We wanna hear too! Lol, these are the days of our lives, lol.

 

[winndaddy]

Not that it matters, but isn't the body maple, not ash? That bass goes for cheap these days. Shes full of s***t.

 

[johnpbass]

I wonder what line of work her 40 years of "biss" experience is in? Hope it's not anger management counseling!

According to Fender's site, yes it is maple.

Cripes! who has time for nonsense like this!?
You could always forward her response to eBay.

I was just looking on Ebay and a came across a Strat. The title is "Fender Stratocaster", but when you click on the description the guy states clearly that he believes it's a Squier/MIJ copy combo. I thought of emailing, asking, "if you know it's not a Fender, why funnel buyers with a keyword that pretends it is?"

Yeah...too bad fees are paid go right into their pocket, not upgrading their nearly non-existent customer service.

 

[TNCreature]

True that...
Yet they cancel my auctions when I say "like new" and once because they said my shipping charge was too high! I don't get them...

...But then you realized everyone knows precisely why they would do that.
