You can buy all of the individually priced items for a total of $3,175, plus shipping, or you can buy them all as a package for $4000, plus shipping, (and get some cables).  What am I missing?

Bill, tgo

The rack enclosure itself, maybe?

Back in the seventies I worked at a restaurant on Santa Monica Pier.   Among other items on the menu, we served Fish 'n Chips.  We also sold sides of fish and sides of fries.  If someone ordered the sides, they got the exact same thing as an order of Fish 'n Chips, but the two sides together were actually cheaper than the order of Fish 'n Chips.  It shocked me how rarely anyone ever noticed this!

Bill, tgo

Delicious fried sea creatures and nightshades aside, of which I am having a hard time not entertaining in my head, I gotta believe we are simply just missing an extra component in the posted offer that was implied but not specified in the listing.

Do not say tartar sauce and lemon wedges.

I expect the $4K includes the shock mounted rack which aren't cheap.

@FC bass , exactly . @Keith , yes it includes the rolling shock mount rack . I bought it used for $200.
 @ Ibpesq , since all of the components except the amps , BBE and the rack were purchased “new “ , when do they become “used” as soon as I installed them , or when I took them out of the box from Alembic ?  I have a 40’ 5 pin cable I bought from Alembic , still sealed in the box . Wish I could return it and get what I paid for it , but will only get what someone will buy it for .

And really , is a “new “ bass really new ? It’s been played in the factory before shipping , so can it really be classified as “new “ ? Kinda like buying a “new” car, it was drove off the assembly line, and checked out to make sure that everything works, driven onto a truck , driven off the truck at the dealer and perhaps taken on a few test drives with a customer , so when you look st the odometer and see 40-60 mikes , is it really “new “ or is it used ?
