So, during my daily Ebay search, I ran into this guitar -

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lefty-Left-handed-Brandoni-Custom-Bass-Guitar-eBay/272783752853?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

Maybe the guy wanted to put it up for bidding, but the price was 17 bucks... I purchased it obviously, and now I'll wait to see if it was his error... or the steal of the century

Haha - well, if it doesn't work out (Chinese seller with zero sales, $17 for a bass worth about $300, and the "International shipping)
it was only $17...

Good luck!

Wouldn't you be covered under eBay's purchase protection policy?

That's a score even it was just for the Roland unit.

If you're struggling with regret, I'll give you $34 for it. Double your money! :idea:

You may have trouble with this one... although the shipping info says FREE, and from China, the description says he's in London, the Roland V Doesn't come with the bass, and to contact him for International shipping... will be interesting to see what happens with this sale! :o

I'm afraid it will be a problem. Looks like a scam. Here's a similar listing from another seller from China with no rating and a low price and free shipping. Original description for this one is in German.

Of course it sounds fishy. I'm just waiting to see what happens...

Oh man, I hope that comes through for you! Would be an awesome deal. I love seeing people willing to take the chance on these too good to be true deals, I'm too much of a skeptic to go for them myself. (Or possibly just a cheap skate)
