    Default First ever GAS attack. Help me!!!

    Well you all know me by now, I'm pretty stupid.
    Wow...
    I do have the money and it would not handicap me too much financially.
    I want it. BAD!
    It's horrible guys... VERY horrible... What would you do in this situation? Keep in mind that I love playing but that I'm not great, I started last christmas. And I AM looking for a non Floyd guitar. That one is pefect.

    I do... ARGJH it's horrible! I've only been playing since last christmas!!! I feel bad!
    Though if I don't like it, I have a friend I can sell it to. I won't regret buying it, I know that. And I can afford it. And I want a guitar without a Floyd. Why am I still hesitating? Ah yeah how to pay for it... Grrrr...
    I'll call my grandpa tomorrow and see if he can transfer the money over. Then as soon as the buyer clears my question about paying, I'll Buy It Now.

    If you want it and you have the money to spare,buy it. Money is pretty much worthless otherwise.

    It's not money to spare, I am a student and I will need to find a flat soon... It's money that most likely won't be needed. My grandparents gave me money each birthday onto a bank account and it's what I have left. It's for my leisure so it should be ok.
    Damn my dad was PISSED

    That thing looks like it going to too cheap and the guy only has 1 feedback. Beware.

    I have one feedback too... We all need to start one day I guess. But his other auction was genuine it seems the info about this guitar is correct. The price is as well, it's a 17 or 18 years old axe They would be cheaper in the US. Thanks for the warning though, I emailed the guy some questions about payments, I'll also ask for more pics.
