Finally getting organized after a building fire in mid-November. I had massive water damage and spent four months living with rehab crews and plaster dust. All my shipping cartons and packing supplies were destroyed when the water followed the pipes into the basement and my storage cage. Add to that the expense and risk of shipping, porch pirates, constant complaining about shipping costs, and the multitude of payment "platforms" I don't want to have accounts with the deal is simple...priority is in-person exchange of actuals, my stuff for your cash. You check it out and are happy with the deal. End of story. No "had to run it past wifey and she said no" BS. No address/shipping malfunctions. No buyer remorse and returns ineptly packed because you trashed my carton/packing. Been there and done that too many times and it's getting old. Like me.
PLEASE no posting on the thread and cluttering things up. All contact by email or PM...
Chandler RH2 with non-original slightly oversized padded gig bag in EC $300
Epiphone Electar M 1938 in gray with a few replaced inlay dots and pieces of binding and a new gig bag $700
Harmony H2 "Student "White Pearlette" with Hershey Bar pickup under handrest chipboard case VGC $300
Harmony H4 "Black Pearlette" with P13 pickup and chipboard case VGC $300

NiViCo Nippon Victor Company Japan 1960's Fender/Guyatone style console with legs (one is non-original) and hardshell case VGC $300
Oahu Iolana double neck PROJECT has one string out on each of the "strings-thru" pickups so repairs required and the case is water-damaged. New tuner buttons though. AS IS $400 Two sets of Rick Aiello's NiBro magnets are probably all it needs and that will be the next step when things get back to normal around here.
ALL THE ABOVE ARE SIX STRINGS !!!
Please do not clutter the thread with posts, email or PM instead. Or call if you have my cell #. Thank you.
