I like the Ash one.

Nothing we can do about this one. They are claiming to sell genuine EBMM's. The pic is of a genuine EBMM. If someone is crazy enough to buy one and sends the money, I bet anything that no guitar will ever arrive.

So I read the auction more carefully to see if they took paypal. Under payment options it said:
Payment methods accepted
There are no available payment methods in your country. Please do not bid on this item.

 

[Spudmurphy]

Yeah I have just seen that too NorM - so, let this be a warning to any forum readers.

Someone/something bought "it"-I pity them.

Reply by johndblock: No I'm not a real buyer at all. There was no guitar - it was a scam! Apr-02-06 08:56


Wtf?

 

[NickDuBaldo]

... looks like he's doesn't pay.


EDIT: I was too slow...

 

[heavymetaljames]

I have seen some guys placing ads on ebay - in UK guitars warning people about the chinese copies, and there was one particular guy who was apparently creating false accounts and then bidding ridiculous amounts for the guitars - this guy could be one of these people - there are a lot of guitarists in the UK that are fed up of the bombardment of chinese auctions and the fakes!!!

there's one guy who just keeps copying other autions, the currency is RMB , i think this is the guy. keeps changing ebay id's. just straight listing copies. i always email the real original seller.

 

[GHWelles]

You know, I think we should tell Fogster to get in on this one . . . . . . He could get his first EBMM quick at those prices....

If thats not a scam i dont know what is

there was a guy on ebay here in Oz who tried for months to sell his Petrucci axe with only a pic he copied from PM bluess site, i emailed him several times saying if he supplied real pics he would have some chance of getting the $3000AUS asking price, which was too steep anyway. But who would trust that much money to someone who couldnt even be bothered taking a real pic himself?? as it turns out, no-one trusted him.
