Looks a SCAM for sure. Same description for all his other items for sale. His feedback profile don,t look right either. BEWARE.

I don't think it's a scam. The seller makes a reference to the fact that I WILL LET IT GO FOR ONLY 1250,00 G.B.P ! In actual fact it's not a bad price for an Emmons LeGrande.

He has also 99 other items for sale. Each item he says will let it go for £1250. GBP. Item is said to be in UK,but he,s in France according to his details. Look at his feedback. One feedback but it says he sold 17 items in the last 12 months. If you click on report item,the page takes you nowhere. 100% SCAM in my opinion. I bet you the add disappears from fleabay before long. Bid at your peril.

It has gone now, there was also another seller based in Thailand with the selfsame photos and description, and there were some bids on it. Both had the same contact details. an obvious scam.

Have a look on this link, everything is for sale at £1250 no matter what the item is.

I have become more gullible with age. :oops:

I have bought guitars on eBay, and luckily every one has been kosher. However, I did correspond long and hard with the seller first each time.

Hi
It's back on eBay.
The same guitar was being auctioned several times last year.
I've reported it to eBay.

SCAM, SCAM ,SCAM. This guitar was advertise a good while back in Leicester and I found the address, went round there and the Muslim guy had no idea what a steel guitar was. I have just received a message from E-bay saying it is a "SCAM" again.

How about I do the contact the seller thing and tell him that the bid I am about to make, (1250 GB£ his asking price ) is subject to me being able to come and collect the guitar and pay CASH ON COLLECTION Because Moma did'nt raise no fools :D I think last time it came up it was located in the wild part of Scotland some where but where ever it is there must be a forum Bro that would pick it up for me???????

Well it seemed like a good plan but I must have ruffled a few feathers it now will not let me ask a question and the ebay position is you cannot name and shame anyone even if you know its a con, the only option I have is to bid the full amount £1250 then (provided the bid is accepted) I would have to go the route of paying for it first probably via paypal then waiting for him to send it which we know is not gonna happen then try to recover my cash via their magical protection policy....... I don't think so ;)
