Thread Name: Help Needed - guitarist keeps buying more guitars
Subject: RE: Help Needed - guitarist keeps buying more guitars
"Those who trade up with instruments, ie. one in and one out, have the right idea to my mind, but it’s not so easy these days because of the loss of high street music shops and the rise of single transactions via the Internet."

.. and very significantly, the over abundant supply of guitars for sale on the internet, at all times...


If I won bids on ebay for guitars down to less than a 10th of their retail cost for the seller,
then I suspect I am stuck with instruments that will never sell,
or will barely cover shipping costs and ebay/reverb/paypal fees.

Not an optimistic return for all the time and effort trying to clear them out the house...

But it's got to be done sooner or later...
