Location: Keepin' It Weird in Portland, OR | I know that this listing and the Ovation Archive both say "5 piece epaulet"...
But I counted and there are more than five pieces there!
But that is a Great Deal! I have paid more than that for lesser guitars. |

I keep tellin' ya, you're a sick puppy! And whatever you have, it's contagious... ;)
Congrats on a nice pounce! Now you owe moody a finders fee. Maybe he's like Tim and will take a check.  |

Location: Boise, Idaho | How does it work that the first BIN was $499 and now that it sold, it says BIN of $420? If I knew how ebay worked, I might have as many guitars as TJ, so maybe ignorance is bliss. |

Location: South of most, North of few | Actually, I was eying this one before Paul posted it. I put in an offer, and then requested his contact info. I called him and asked what he would take for it. He said 420, so I told him to lower the buy it now to that and I would pull the trigger. He did it while I was on the phone with him, and I hit the button. The rest, as they say, is history.
BTW Johnny, I think you made a better deal today! ;) |

Since Ebay got their money (3 times, listing fee, final value fee, paypal fees) they should be happy. |

Location: SoCal | I only played a 93C once, in a store. Felt like the top was a long way from opening up, but knew that when it did, look out.
Essentially an Elite version of the Glen Campbell... |

No sour grapes here, Jim. The better the deal you get, the better the deal the buyer gets from you next week. :D |
