What does "Good used condition" mean? (eBay content.)

If this is AFTER the price drop, how ambitious was the original figure?

 Worn frets. Drill hole emerging through the front of headstock. Project, spares/repair, methinks.
You say, atom bomb. I say, tin of corned beef.

    Never assume what it means. Always rely on pics. If there are clear pics, the words don't mean much. 
    Red ones are better.

    It certainly doesn't mean that…

    The drill holes in the back of the head mean it can't be, let alone the one through the front.

    Even a genuinely good and undamaged one would probably only be worth about £100.

    It means buyer beware as its trying to be contradictiry and say its in 'good condition' but then reliant on the 'used' term to say 'well what do you expect its used!'

    "Good used" should mean that no refurbishment is required for it to function properly, so obviously that neck is misdescribed.
