Location: East Wenatchee, WA | I don't get it Mark? If you have a bunch of people on this site interested in buying it, why risk some "nobody" sneaking in and scarfing it up. Go get the thing, if your buddy wants it...fine, if not, you have some buyers out there that apparently are willing (hedge your position by getting a commitment from them of course). |

And if you need help kicking, I've got a big foot and am not too far away... |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I've definitely thought of buying it on my own, especially since my wife was gone this weekend. She's back and I'd rather my friend deal with his wife than have me deal with mine. I didn't get to 28 years of marriage by being stupid. OK, I'm pretty stupid. I've also been thinking about buying the 2000 Collector's they have at the same place. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | Took my friend down to the pawnshop and he checked out the 1537 really well. Besides the finish cracks, the end of the fret board is curling up, which causes some fret buzz when played at about the 15th fret. That's not a serious problem. Also, no case. My friend's going to try to get it for $500. It won't leave Boise. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I showed him that one. I'm afraid a novice might try exactly that. If he buys it and tries the screwdown, I will have a bunch of volunteers come over and kick his ass. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | An update. He bought it for $525 without a case, but a pretty good deal nonetheless. I'm sure he's home polishing it and putting new strings on it. |
