    Re: PayPal fees...

    I think you're all missing the point. Paypal deducts the fee from the seller, it won't tack it on to the buyer. I really don't think they care what arrangements are made between the buyer and seller....
  2. Re: Breedlove production moving to China -- Will Weber be next?

    If you think about it, Breedlove (made in America) was at a non competitive price point. For $1000-1500 you could get a rather plain looking A style or a rather odd looking K or F style. Sure, the...

    Re: tips for using the classifieds safely?

    Hey Kevin, I've only had one shakey deal on the MC classifieds, but it turned out to just be slow mail. Remember? I still can't believe it took almost 3 weeks to get a check in the mail (from the day...

    Re: took my mando on a plane ...

    I've flown Alaska and Delta and took my mando as carry-on with no problem. American Airlines insisted that I gate check. Some how the gate check tag fell off on the gangway ;) and I carried it on to...

    Re: new mando from mandoshop

    I bought a J Bovier from Kyle at the Mando Shop a couple of years ago. Stellar deal, blah, blah, blah... Kyle (The Mando Shop) asked me to to put in a good word for him on the Mandolin Cafe, which I...

    Re: Mid Missouri M-1

    It probably doesn't help that the tailpiece cover is missing and the strings need to be trimmed. It appears that the mandolin hasn't been cared for...

    Re: Red Cafe Caps! Same as the new Black?

    I think the red one sits like butter and is sweeter and very well balanced across the brim. The black on the other hand, is woody, woofey and barky, but in a pinch could be used for classical...

    Re: Kentucky KM 170 series and KM 270 series

    That's a Mid-Mo for sure and at that price it's a steal! Get it! If you don't like it you can sell it on the classifieds here for 4X that price... They may not look fancy, but you'd be hard pressed...

    Re: Gibson A-9

    Nice! Not quite a Big Muddy ;), but nice. That could keep you happy for a long time.
  15. Re: Sell KM-505 w/CA bridge for J. Bovier A-5???

    I've had both. In my opinion it's a lateral move. Different tone and feel, not better, just different... That Kentucky is a pretty fine mandolin.

    Re: Mike Black #8 A2Z

    Very nice. If I didn't have one ordered already, I may have tried to snap that one up. Don't see them come up for sale very often (never). Mine should be ready in the near future, I can hardly wait...

    Mike, do you happen to know what size "0" ring would work best? I'd hate to buy an assortment like that for a couple small rings.
