Lowest Priced New Basses Ever??

Yeah, I could understand if they'd just said the distribution centre is in the US, but bringing the coronavirus into it just seems weird.
Everybody is bringing the coronavirus into everything. Today, I received an email from a promoter wanting out if a contract on the grounds that he's not seeing the numbers he expected because of the epidemic... We are in Toronto. :bored::dead:

Yeah, maybe he thought I'd be more willing to accept a delay if it was because of that... I dunno, I'll reply and say I'm happy to wait and see what happens.

Some fuel for the fire. A few of the items are relisted, showing the typical location in NJ.

Exquisite Burning Fire Style Electric Bass Guitar Golden | eBay
New GP Glarry Electric Bass Guitar Bass w/ 20W AMP Black | eBay

Took some digging through my "viewed items" list to find the relisted items. Searching the sellers name still doesn't return anything.

Proceed at your own risk, as always!

My items are moving according to eBay tracking.

NJ would have been better though

interesting. I just went to "my ebay" and both say they were shipped under the same tracking number.

Did you order them together or separately?

I ordered them one after the other. Regardless, they both say "shipped"

Could be that he put in the same tracking by mistake. Send him a message, perhaps?

I ordered two items together. They have the same tracking number. When checked, tracking shows:
item 1 of 2 and item 2 of 2.
 
Mine was listed as NJ, same seller as yesterday (who was listed as shipped via CN and Hong Kong).

I'm not worried. This is a small number of basses and guitars in the whole scheme of things. Years and years ago I bought a nice bicycle frame via a "group buy" for very cheap. It took months and months but it came and I've loved the frame and it's my main rider nowadays. This reminds me of that situation, it's like a group buy but most likely a sell off.
