Understatement of the year?

This was on Glasgow Gumtree earlier. A Les Paul standard for £400. Got to be a scam? Well, the guy has added a few additional photo`s and the understatement of the year. Look at the headstock photo`s.

"A few bumps!!!!" He says.

It looks like the headstock has had a rather bad break. I know that this can be common with Gibson`s but you usually see them repaired to a high standard whilst this looks like someone has stuck some no more nails in it!

Be fair, these are "2000 grand" new!

If it's been fixed with apoxy, then it won't budge. Looks shocking though.

If it has been epoxied, then there is no hope of being able to do a good job of it.
