Where'd it go?

<div class="bbWrapper">Did my earlier post get deleted?<br /> <br /> Who by?<br /> <br /> Tell me why.<br /> <br /> I thought it was a fairly innocuous question, but there must be a good reason it shouldn&#039;t have been here.<br /> <br /> I don&#039;t want to upset anyone, just wondered about getting a Bongo for a decent price, without the middle man, y&#039;know?<br /> <br /> Can someone fill me in?<br /> <br /> Thanks<br /> JB</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">It was probably deleted if it :<br /> <br /> 1) Had anything to do with a specific price...<br /> <br /> or <br /> <br /> 2) It involved getting a new bass from someone other then a EBMM dealer in the U.K.<br /> <br /> <br /> Andrew</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">And if it contained references to defrauding government agencies.<br /> <br /> That is just a guess.<br /> <br /> Remember, guys - this is a public forum. <br /> <br /> Again, just guessing,</div>

<div class="bbWrapper"><b>Oh well</b><br /> <br /> &#039;Fair play&#039; as we say here.<br /> <br /> But you can&#039;t blame a guy for wanting the best deal he can get eh?<br /> <br /> I&#039;d still like the advice on pup configs etc. It&#039;ll defo be a 4 with a RW board. I&#039;m thinking HS, but opinoins welcome.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">It&#039;s kinda a sticky situation...<br /> <br /> I mean like you said, we all want the best deal we can get...<br /> <br /> but laws are laws.<br /> <br /> If the price you are quoted from a U.K. EBMM Dealer is in the range of other U.K. dealers...I don&#039;t see how it&#039;s NOT fair, even if say we in America may get the instruments for less. I would love to own a Jaguar for a substantial discount but It&#039;s just now how the cookie crumbles. To put it back on bass matters , If you want EBS amps/cabs in America you are gonna pay premium because they are made in Sweden. If I was to live over there I&#039;m told I would pay much less. Does that Suck? Sure... Is it fair... I would say so.<br /> <br /> anywho, good luck with Finding a bongo for a fair price.<br /> <br /> Andrew</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">JB, numbah twelve from the seldom-read FAQ above:<br /> <br /> 12. Can we discuss discount prices on the forum?<br /> <br /> A: No. EBMM does not allow dealers to post discount prices on the internet, and it subverts that policy if we post discount prices here on the forum. <br /> <br /> <br /> That doesn&#039;t mean you can&#039;t PM me (or anyone else) - and I&#039;d be glad to point you in the right direction of the best deal around.<br /> <br /> Jack</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Andrew, sensible words, thanks.<br /> <br /> Jack, thanks also yet again (you really do rock)- PM en route.<br /> <br /> I&#039;m gonna get me a Bongo fellas!</div>
