This one (http://jonesboro.craigslist.org/msg/1404813190.html) recently came up on craiglist (jonesboro) and if its still available would appear almost too good to be true given the asking price.

That is (or was) Olie's bass...he got it from GC some years ago, if memory serves, and later had to shoot down a scam auction that used GC's pics of the bass. Olie's from Tejas, so it's conceivable his bass could be on craigslist in northern Arkansas, but I'd be a little surprised myself.

Sorry, double-post.

That is indeed my bass and it's at Alembic now getting some updates done, so unless Mica's got a boat payment due or something er uh..... it's a scam!

Should we start f'ing with him? I already flagged the ad, but could probably be a tad more aggressive.

Already removed. Maybe it was my e-mail in which I introduced myself as local law enforcement officer and asked for an address at which I could view the bass.

Olie has the most scammed bass EVER! The bass is safe in the shipping room here.

I've got $1675. I can even slip it under the table to you, Mica! How much for shipping? ;-)

Okay. If there's one thing this guy has is balls. Check out below the reply I received even after indicating I could stop by to look at the bass. I love the name he or she is using.

This guitar is in Very Near Mint Condition. There are no scratches, dents or dings anywhere on it,everything is 100% original. The price I'm selling it for is $1760, which is including all charges. I used to live in Jonesboro but I'm currently working in the UK (London) and I'll be moving here permanently within the next few months.I'm using a privately-held company called MoneyBookers storage to sell this guitar , I left it at their warehouse before leaving to the UK. they are supervising the entire sale process from payment, shipping with a 5-day inspection period, Warranty transfer service or/and (if needed) returns and refunding. If you want to purchase it, let me know and I will explain you how the company works and how we can move forward. Kind regards.

Well he is right about one thing, the bass is in Near Mint Condition.

OO
PS I wonder if including all charges includes fraud too?!
