All thanks to you, Sam!  It’s getting there… I have to post links to the music that’s posted on the server and stuff. Thanks again, Sam! Corey

I’ve already sent the buyer and the seller an email… no response yet. We’ll see what happens!  Thanks for the suggestion! Corey

On the other hand, you might want to wait for feedback to be posted. My husband bought a guitar on Ebay that couldn’t be repaired. The seller suggested that he sell it to the next bidder, who still wanted it. We sent a copy of the luthier’s report to everyone who had bid on the thing, but someone else who got ripped off might be tempted. -Donna

Corey, You might try contacting the buyer and asking him/her if he wants to turn it over real quick – for a profit, of course…  I get messages like that all the time when I buy stuff on eBay. Doc

Yeah, great story.  I’d love to get my Hofner Committee back, bought in 1972 very, very second-hand for GB
