I bought one of these several years ago. Not a Vox instrument, but a Phantom Guitaworks, who has resurrected the classic Vox designs. (See link). It's a fun little bass, better made/sounding than the originals, and one of the ones I'm considering a candidate for flats/tapewounds.

Are you just going to deal with the postage yourself?

That is terrible news.

Care to share any more info so that we may avoid this person in the future. Ebay ID might be gone, but what about e-mail address and name?

What?! :o That's terrible news! :x I'm so sorry. What action can you take at this point? Will ebay/Paypal cover the expense, or are they still only covering up to $200?
