Maybe we should start a Portland 'Chapter' of the club!

I am fairly new to Craig's List but unrealisticly high prices are what I have been noticing as I search around.   It seems these people do'nt understand the concept of depreciation.   A lot of items are priced at their retail or original selling price.

CL is, generally, flake central...a failure to understand depreciation is the least of their problems. That said, inflated prices are not the rule...I know a guy in Cali who got a rare walnut F***** P with a replacement neck for $85. You just have to be willing to spent a LOT of time looking for a good deal.

If not a Portland Chapter then at least a early warning list of Portlanders who have any Alembics for sale!

I am up for that! I am thinking of selling my Elan 6 to help further my dream of buying a Series I. If I sold the Elan, I would also consider sellng my F2-B if I needed more cash for the Series I.

Not sure if this is the same bass with a slightly lower price?
