Himself Himself Be Nice (I'm New!) Registered: 30/07/10 Posts: 12 Loc: SCOATLEN'	I have never sold a guitar on Ebay, and I would hesitate to buy a guitar (or anything) there, but the most shaking-of-the-head I have done was due to seeing early 80s 2-pot Strats described as "Dan Smith". I believe that practice has been dealt with. Or does someone else know better?

The best thing is when you put something up with clear indications of any changes and you get people just being rude- I had an SG with Hiscox and graphite saddles and had a chap offer me a ridiculous lowball figure because I had 'devalued' the instrument. I told him to shove it and got the full asking price a couple of days later.. _________________________ PSN: stickyfiddle

Vialli Vialli One of the Regulars Registered: 01/02/10 Posts: 68 Loc: Bristol	I've bought a couple of cheapies on Ebay just to try out different styles really. A Vintage V99 and an Ibanez. It didn't cost me much & I sold the Ibanez on after 6 months for no loss & used the same box it came in to post it. It's a small risk if you scrutinise the seller carefully. For something more expensive I'd stick to cash on collection.
