$2.70 starting bid series I on Ebay! Um, too good to be true? They have other similar listings... I know nothing more as usual.

Jus' checkin' to make sure it wudden mine this time... Jeannie's been kinda' sassy here lately. ;D
The actual description is short, but in French, while the seller appears to be UK based.
The listing alleges the bass is in Los Angeles. Also, if you look at the pics, there is a notice that the seller is a pawn shop and is not accepting bids. Rather, the bass has a BIN price of $3K! If I were 400 miles closer, I'd be on my way right now!
Bill, tgo
fraud, fraud, fraud.
i could be wrong, but i doubt it.
look at picture #4
gotta try a little harder than that!
ymmv
so sayeth the curmudgeon from denver 💩
I remembered the jack repair, here's what we saw last year...
It was for sale in France in January 2020 - http://club.alembicguitars.net/index.php?topic=25224.0
And there was a dodgy eBay listing in May 2020 - http://club.alembicguitars.net/index.php?topic=25518.0
Already taken down.
This same scammer has been popping up for a few months now (at least). Scroll through the photos and you'll see the telltale "Do not bid! BIN price is $3000...". I've reported them multiple times, but I think what they're doing is hacking other accounts.
Well darn, I had my $2.70 ready too...
