diablo175 Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Some folks just don't learn. He's relisted it, but this time, he's knocked 500 bucks off the cost, changed the auction to Buy It Now or Best Offer and jacked the shipping up by 20 bucks. PINK SS
Jem Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 I also see he thinks the fact that Billy Duff(y) (crowned worlds worse guitarist three years in a row over here) has owned something it makes it five times more valuable than it really is
cynic Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 I can confirm he's set the auction up to "auto-reject" offers of $600.
diablo175 Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 I can confirm he's set the auction up to "auto-reject" offers of $600. Same for my offer of $750.00
Bennyboy-UK Posted September 18, 2012 Author Posted September 18, 2012 I don't reckon this one will end up at a decent price ever... Still 2 grand asking price.Nevermind, plenty more fish in the sea!I know where there is an old SS1 standard in pink that is about 500 quid, and going nowhere until I can think of a cunning plan to sneak it into my house on the sly.Having no other pink guitars makes this tricky! It's a bit battered, but I quite like that! My marble one is going nowhere!
Tah-lee Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 I hope he's not holding his breath on $2000. That's not going to happen.
Studio Custom Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 I hope he's not holding his breath on $2000. That's not going to happen.Maybe his wife is pressuring him to sell off gear, then he sets his prices are a place where he knows he's keeping it all and blaiming the economy.

I will keep that in mind if I ever have to play that card with my wife.

diablo175 Posted September 20, 2012 Posted September 20, 2012 Turns out the "blocking" of my bids was more a result a tech glitch than him initiating it. Was able to put forth two more bids. My subsequent offers fared no better. <sigh> Guess I'll have to give up on that one and just concentrate on the eventual arrival of my two Calis. Maybe even learn how to play them in the next month or two before they arrive.
Bennyboy-UK Posted September 20, 2012 Author Posted September 20, 2012 Yeah SS1s are crap anyway, Calis are much better.
Bennyboy-UK Posted September 20, 2012 Author Posted September 20, 2012 Actually that's a real problem for me, it's like which do I like more; tits or ass...?
RichRS6 Posted September 20, 2012 Posted September 20, 2012 Who says you have to like one more than the other? I like them both.Be at peace with yourself man........................
diablo175 Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 Yup, still keeping this thread alive- Anyone able to view what this SS is up to? I had the auction saved in My Ebay but it currently lists the auction as over and the listing as closed?
