I wish I had seen this sooner.  Please tell me it didn't sell for the $2,800 posted on Ebay and that you took it off auction.

That is a good, valid question.  How is the bass still for sale, if it sold on eBay?  I believe the Thumper Rule may apply . . .

I'm sure this thread has been confusing, and I'm pretty sure I'm the most confused of all.  I will try to explain what's happened so far.
 
First, the bass is still available.  I was attempting to end the ebay auction early, but ebay blocked me from doing so.  When I could not end the auction, I attempted to post a revision to the listing.  I was not allowed to do so by ebay.  I was not a happy camper.  Everything I tried to do with this listing I was not allowed to do: I was not allowed to set a reserve; I was not allowed to add links to the sound of the bass; I was not allowed to end the auction; I was not allowed to add a message advising potential buyers that I had changed my mind (even though I reserved the right to end the auction early in the ad copy?as people used to be able to do the last time I was on ebay back in the early 2000's).
 
I contacted the winning bidder immediately after the auction ended and explained what happened, and he was very understanding.   And so, here we are.
 
I reposted the vid on youtube with (I think) better sound, so that the filters and Q-switches can be heard more clearly.

EBay can be very annoying at times. They don't seem to care about sellors and you can't actually talk to them.  
 
I sold a drum part a while ago and the buyer for some reason thought was new, which I clearly said it was used. I instantly offered to refund the money and take it back, but instead got hit with a rant calling me a crook, liar, and a cheat (with various bits of profanity included) and bad feedback (my only one). Th buyer has an EBay store and is clearly nuts, judging from crazy other listings accusing various people of also being liars and cheats, but EBay does not seem to care about such things. It appears to just be a large computerized cash machine.
 
I now pretty much use Craigs List!
