Good pawn shop purchase?

Occasionally I check out pawn shops for guitar equipment, but almost always find nothing but junk. However recently I found a hot pink BC Rich Warlock bass. Haha the old guy who works there was making fun of me for looking at it. He said "It even comes with a free can of paint to get rid of that pink." He only wanted $150, but that's probably negotiable.
Here's a pic I found on Google of the same guitar:
I'm thinking of buying it as more of a joke than anything. Would any of you guys buy it?

Only if that strong negro comes with it. He looks like he could pick many bushels and tote many sacks.

Dude, if it plays good pick it up. I'm sure it's from before the import shit went on. For 150 i would jump right on it.

The main thing holding me back is that I'm primarily a guitar player, but I was playing fill-in bass for a band that's no longer together. So now I don't have much use for the 2 basses I already own, so I really don't need another.

But it and send it to me then.

every time i go to a pawn shop the guitars are waaaaaaaay overpriced. I saw a Jackson JS30KV, which is an entry level guitar thats about $300 brand new. The place was trying to sell it for $400 used.

i'd talk the pawn shop down $50 and sell it to some trendy faggot for $200 as an 80's collector's item

I've noticed thrift stores have gotten ridiculous with their prices too. You can't get much of a deal there anymore either. If something is $100 new, they'll sell it used for $99. What happened to all the good thrift store/pawn shops deals?

Most pawn shop people are jews that cash checks. Like towel heads selling gas. If there is a big antique or some kind of flea market area, go there.
