Post by: ironstorm on July 21, 2007, 07:16:26 AM: Hi everyone well the bass was on ebay with a $1500.00 starting bid and a $1800.00 buy now with buynow I offerd to pay half on shipping and insurance cost also offered for buyer to pickup at my home. It was a seven day listing that had 18 watchers and 500 visits and no one bid on it. I guess it just wasn't ment to be oh well all you can do in life is try if things happen they happen if not you can at least say you tryed.

anyway the bass is still available but please don't send me any e-mails unless you are ready to buy Thanks Ken Robinson robinsonken@verizon.net (mailto:robinsonken@verizon.net)
