I emailed the seller yesterday to ask if he knew that it wasn't an EBMM but haven't had a reply yet so I've reported it

Good call - save some poor kid wasting his hard earned cash over Christmas.

Cheers.

God forbid the guy doesn't have time to check his emails everyday! Some people might be busy in the lead up to Xmas or summat...

If Gumtree hadn't agreed that it was a fake then they wouldn't have pulled the ad

[dyerseve]

That was not my point...

But anyway, I think it's good that there are folks who are prepared to point out the non-genuine items, regardless of them being scams or errors.

I reported this instrument too. It winds me up that people list this stuff like this. I don’t believe for a second that the seller believed the bass to be genuine, because if they did the asking price would have been closer to £1000. Some one trying to pull a fast one on some uninformed parents before xmas!
