brad4d8 Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 This looks fishy to me: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260821315094&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:US:1123 Advertised as new 1967 Epi Howard Roberts Custom. For one thing, I thought that the original models had three knobs, not two. Also hard to believe it's been in the original box for 40+ years, let alone a BIN of $2500 for a brand new HR 67. Any thoughts? Oh, and less than 24 Hours to bid. Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parabar Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Not a peep about the item; the entire ad is all about threats to block bids if you don't send an e-mail first and uses poor English. No way I'd buy so much as a used guitar string from that turkey! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianh Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 The seller's site is full of bogus items. Check out this 1969 Les Paul Custom Black Beauty "unopened in box" with a BIN of $2500: http://cgi.ebay.com/...=item3cba296b97 Oh, and this '68 SG with a BIN of you guessed it - $2500: http://cgi.ebay.com/...=item3cba296ddf Somebody should report them to eBay...

Gary Moore Tribute Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 SELLER IN "HONG KONG" nuff said... The Counterfit hot spot of the world I'm reporting his *** to ebay feds right now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PickyPick Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 just a bit off topic but i found it to be funny anyway... most people that write "un opened" either a music store or a private seller... some how manage to have pictures of the guitar, with the background being their house/store... to me this is not unopened and technically USED... XD... or at least that was my arguement when i got into an fight with a store rep at my local music store... XD fun times! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
