Another Spolier for sale with crown peghead and ivory colored PUs. http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330656969296+#ht_891wt_1396 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330656969296+#ht_891wt_1396)
 
But $3,000 for what otherwise appears to be a pretty standard instrument. Seems each time a new ad for a Spoiler appears the price is jacked-up by $500.

Too high a price, IMO.  I considered throwing a bid, but the seller probably would've been offfended.  And, she ain't a Distillate.  : ))

This bass has been on sale on eBay for six months now (and bizarrely the seller's added $250 to the original price of $3,000). I think the market must have told him by now this is over-priced????

Yeah, I can never understand why people sometimes jack up the price when the instrument has been sitting on eBay for 6 months.
If the price would go down $300-$500, these folks could probably make a sale.
