53 Hamer guitars on Craigslist and counting

Hey Guys.

I'm looking at the Vintage S in SF Bay Area for 1000. Is that a fair price? I am in Maryland and not sure about doing the deal across country.

Paul

My first post.

Paul I played the Vintage S you are talkiung about when I bought the Daytona he was selling about a week ago. I didn't plug it in but it looked great and played well unplugged. IDK about the Vintage S but the Daytona had the tags and case candy.

Isn't that Holloskull the same one that he tried to sell on the forum months ago?

Sure looks like it- sounds like the same dude. Makes you wonder why it didn't sell before. :ph34r:

That A5 has been floating up on Hartford CL for a while now; he was looking for around $1400 for a while iirc. I used to have one like that, but sold it years ago and can't remember where it went. Getting old is like that lol.

KassperT,

Thanks. I feel a little stupid. I like the guitar and want it, but not comfortable sending a grand in Postal Money orders and waiting for the payment to be cashed, then, having it shipped. I guess that I am not that trusting in my old age.

Paul, I am in the same boat as you. The T-51 I want is in GA, I'm in CA. The guy seems like legit, but it's a chunk of change to throw around.

I can say my experience with Charles was great, and there is something of a sad backstory as to why he is selling these guitars. Like I say I can't blame you for being cautious in this day and age. I still don't know what I'm going to do myself.

KassperT,

Thanks. I may contact Charles today and see if we can speak on the phone.

Also, to all you other Hamer fans out there, How about this one. An "86 Hamer Scepter" I have not heard of this guitar. Not affiliated in any way with the seller.

Not sure if anyone would be interested. One of the guitars listed earlier for $700 is down to $450. Has those goofy initial inlays though.

I was just chatting with Faye about her Cruisebass(es) not too long ago.

That's one I'd be all over - ESPECIALLY with the Sam Moss sticker!

Has anyone here done deals involving shipping and Craig's List? What sort of protection does Paypal offer me when buying guitars in this situation?

I dealt twice from Germany and with the help of HFC members during the last sixth months. Never had any problems, but then I never got in a situation were I would have needed PayPals services...
