It had to have ended early... for $40 I'd have bought it just to have a backup. Hell, I'd buy 10 at that price and have two in each room of my apartment, and a spare in my office.

It had a starting bid of $30 and a Buy it Now price of $40. The seller left feedback for the sale as did the buyer. "great guitar at a great price" he said. That's a bit of an understatement.

This seriously doesn't make sense... it has to be either a positive feedback pad or a stolen instrument.

I would have paid $42. Without hesitation.

The cheapest I've paid for one is $299, new, in 1998.

They have been selling for around $600 for the last year, give or take. I want to get another one to strip and paint it. Daphne blue, I think. Or surf green.

Mine cost me $280 last November with a gig bag, JB+split on the bridge, and a douchetastic Fender decal (to be replaced once I can find a replacement super sonic decal)

Nice. I once bought one in a pile. All disconnected. $350. Worked on it for several months and now it is my coral esquired one.

Last year, I saw a neck on eBay that I wanted pretty bad, but I was outbid. I'd love to start with only a neck. Make a body from scratch.

I am a huge fan of your coral esquired one.

After working on mine (and playing it for one gig I allowed him), my tech wants to make his own Supersonic, with a tele pickup on the bridge, a mini humbucker on the neck, and a mustang trem.

Pretty sure that's how people set up spam ebay accounts. They push through fake auctions to raise their feedback...seems suspicious.

It's for sale again. The guy that bought it is flipping it.
