KiOgon Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 I'm really concerned with the number of fakes turning up on eBay. I notice mostly Fender or Squier. No matter how these are described when they're advertised, many of the unfortunate buyers are blissfully unaware & by the law of averages at least some of these fakes are going to end up being advertised here on BC. Just look at the Serial Number thread above this forum, see one example of feedback & how many fakes have been sold with the same serial number. I feel sorry for the poor guy or gal, young or old, who buys one in the best of faith, gets fed up with, joins BC to try & sell it! It's probably already happened, I don't know. I hope we can do our bit to help get rid of these scum & report fake items to eBay, it only takes a few clicks, a couple of minutes to do. Cheerz, John end of rant ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about we set up a Consultancy/Advisory service for eBay?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
