Bonkers price of the year?

jpfamps

This must be the post overpriced bass guitar I've seen for a long time.

The phrase lash up would not do it justice!

None of it is Fender of any description as far as I can see.

Bridgehouse

nothing to fret about with that one

Another fake … and it seems to live in the same tweed case as the first fake.

Now that there are two, there can be no pretending that the seller does not know exactly what he is doing.


Reported.

The guy has several fakes listed. Most are budget replicas with official looking decals applied. On the Telebass, the sanding where the original decal used to be is clearly visible.

The only honest guitar this seller has listed is an Epiphone Slash LP model. Even that is misdescribed as a "Gibson".

I recall a while back an antique dealer selling upbranded copy basses at infated prices.

Funkfingers

The reported non-Fender instrument listings have been withdrawn. Overnight, the seller's total item count has shot right up. Roughly a dozen of these are musical instruments. Everything else is antiques and curios.

Ebay says “sorry you missed out on this item”

Am I?
