It's listed in NYC too.

That's a nice looking bass. I still can't get used to the asking prices that they have been going for lately. Otherwise I'd jump on this one.

Is it a short scale???

Tiffin is about 3 hours from me. I would like to pick this one but has the price been posted yet?

The ads I've seen are asking for $5K and don't include a phone number. It looks suspicious to me.

I have to believe that something fishy is going on with the ad as well kungfusheriff.

The reason I pointed this one out is because I felt something fishy going on. I didn't understand why it was posted in the L.A. Craigslist. Now I see that it is also posted in N.Y.

Of course the seller may be of the mindset to reach out to a more populated buyer market

Reaching out to a more populated market seems vaguely logical, but considering that savvy buyers can take advantage of several craigslist search engines that can scan the whole US, it doesn't seem entirely plausible.
Maybe the seller's a noob, who knows, but I'm not about to risk $5K to find out even if I had $5K to risk.
