I've been looking for a D25 (first early flat back and now mid 70s arch back). Obviously, you cannot find them at every local GC. I cannot tell you how many Reverb sellers have a no return policy and also don't list detailed information about the action or bridge/saddle. With a neck reset potentially adding 50%-70% to the cost, I am limiting myself to guitars with at least a 1 day return policy. Some ads say "low action", but when asked either don't respond or will come back with 7/64" or 8/64" (not what I'd call "low"). I'm one of those sellers that lists neck widths and thickness at the 1st, 5th, and 12th fret and the action of the e strings at the 12th. And I give a 3 day return window. But I feel like I'm an outlier.
Anyway. So what do you look for? What risk are you willing to take? Am I being unreasonable is messaging and asking sellers about this?
