Is/was this authentic? Few bad pics, zero feedback. And, the shipping!!! $17.00. Sent message asking about condition repairs breaks.....no answer. But, guitar sold. Was this my lucky break if I had purchased it?.....unless someone here knows anything, or bought it, I guess I will never know.

Gotta wonder if that is mold inside it...

Still, $700. Or a scam!

The listing did say 'free local pick up'

"Sorry. Already sold it."

A cynic is going to argue in favor of a scam and have a lot of hypothetical and circumstantial evidence. A gambler or bargain hunter is going to be able to counter almost every one.

I suppose I shouldn't care since it's not something I would buy even if one of my LTG friends delivered it and offered it to me in person. (Unlike a D-25-12 that Mrs. Fro. didn't even know she wanted until it showed up on the doorstep).

I have no idea if it was legit or not...but had someone arranged to meet the seller and pay/pick up in person...the risk would be far less.

I am at least a few thousand miles away. And I sent an email with a few questions....And meanwhile it sold. Having been a ebayer for so long, the red flags were flying high.
