Mandolin "B" stock or seconds etc.
Good evening everyone!
Since the ginormous electrical storm literally fried my coveted 65" 4k tv on Tuesday, I have some time to pontificate on my favorite site whilst recovering from my grief.
I took a chance and purchased a The Loar 700 VS Supreme mandolin from an ebay site . They had a 100% feedback and I'm assuming they specialize in factory seconds made by Recording King? Anyway, I was in the market for an outside beater and was able to get it for $579.00 and free shipping with case. The catch, 3 fairly noticeable cosmetic flaws with binding and finish(all in the scroll parts). No issues with construction or playability. I just wanted to throw this out here as I am going to give an honest critique when it arrives. I'm curious, considering the price, if in fact it will really sound like a top-of-the-line Loar mandolin. Whether it's good or bad, they explicitly said No Returns or Warranty. A $579.00 gamble. Will let everyone know - good or bad. Wish me luck! (Any opinions/comments would be greatly welcomed)
Regards,
Joe
