hey, jerk from ebay...

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

Yes, it's maple.

Her response was totally out of line.

However, she does have a "make an offer" feature on her listing, so she obviously knows she won't get her BIN asking price.

I don't even engage this type. You can not win.

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

I thought so.. I was just a little confused since she proclaims its a ash body in her add and then tells the OP "at least you didn't say it was maple". Apparently someone has called her out on that as well. A true idiot, those are getting easier and easier to come by the days.

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

haha indeed.

I reported her for being misleading and a jerk about it.

oh i know it is, i am very familar with the bass, and how sh*t the neck is. probably one of the nicer jazz necks, and overall basses i have played.

i havent even bothered, but thanks.

her remarks were just out of line and frankly...plain rude. i dont like to do business with people that act that way, not that i would at the BIN price anyway.

Disco Batman raises a good point. It is on Fender's website!

It is obvious deception to list Squier items as Fender in the auction's title instead of Squier, or Squier by Fender. The seller has placed 'Squier' twice in the main paragraph description.

This is from the item description:

Poly is the first finished Leo used, he actually spray painted his guitars like cars using under lament and prime.

She hasn't replied to me....

Eh what the heck, I wrote her and told her it's maple, not ash. Lets see what she says.

Know what would be hilarious? If we all made it a point to write her that its maple not ash. She would flip her top! Matter of fact, I believe I'll write her right now.Haha

Yeah, lets all be a royal pain in her ash.

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?"

Two words: Caveat Emptor

 

[winndaddy]

Not a problem, Done my good deed for the day.

 

[logicman69]

I actually got a chuckle out of here responce.... yes, she was being a B#$tch about it, but it was still clever.

That being said, the ebay as is really missleading and WAY overpriced.

Keep it up guys, this is going to end up the best post in tB history!! Please keep us updated!

Contacted seller...I'm in. lol

Subbed!

Unfortunately, this seller is not able to respond to your question. We suggest reviewing the item again to see if your answer is in the seller's listing.

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...

They think a bass ships for the same as a guitar. Over sixed packages get hit hard.

If anyone knows a way to keep the over sized shipping charges to a minimum, other than cutting the bass in half, let the rest of us know.
