My Carl Thompson Thread.

Topics about musical instruments other than guitar should go here. There's bound to be a Carter, LeRoi, or Yo-Yo Ma out there.

GSR wrote:So...

I bought a bass on eBay today. It was $1200 and i was the only bid, so i got it for that price. I emailed him before the auction asking him questions about it and stuff, but he never responded. The auction is through Instrument Exchange/Guitar Center. I wanted to haggle with him to get the price down but he never responded, so i had to put in the winning bid. I'm getting dicked on shipping/tax cos i live in CT and it's adding like 120 bucks to the price. here's what he said on the auction page:

GOOD LUCK & HAPPY BIDDING

POTENTIAL BIDDER !! DON'T HESITATE TO CONTACT ME IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS !!

EMail me @ : IEREP825@guitarcenter.com

The starting Price is my Reserves / Acceptance Price , but is not a Buy Now Price



I want to know if i can still pursue the haggling that i emailed him with before the auction ended. Maybe he hasn't responded cos he's through Guitar Center and today's new years day, but i think he should be available to me to reach, especially the day the auction is ending. Anyway, is there anyway i can get the price down, or am i locked in because i put the winning bid in for $1200, so now i have to pay it. If that's the case, then wtf was i supposed to do? he wouldn't respond, so i had to bid.

Jeez... i finally get an email back from them, but it's about the case:
Ok,

I will forward this email to my customer service reps so they can add a case to your order.

FUck that, if he is going to charge you for a case, don't buy it. Moduli have cases included in the cost of the bass.
