Title: Taylor 810e - Bogus Ebay Listing
Post by: jrporter on April 01, 2017, 06:03:35 PM
Be wary of the following Ebay listing http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Taylor-810e-Guitar-1112145090-/172604725331?hash=item28300b1853:g:wzYAAOSwXYtY30gm&afsrc=1&rmvSB=true . Besides the ridiculously low price, the seller with zero transactions has lifted the pictures and guitar serial number from Sweetwater for what appears to be the same guitar. Have reported this to Ebay but wanted others to steer clear, regardless of the ridiculously low price. Here's Sweetwater's listing for the same guitar...http://www.ebay.com/itm/Taylor-810e-Guitar-1112145090/401299048427?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D42807%26meid%3Ddbe1094112d14c53b75bc669a7a2db19%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D172604725331&afsrc=1&rmvSB=true

I suspect this was someone's idea of an April Fool's joke, but thanks for the "heads up" -- just in case...!

The ad indicates that three were sold...

Yeah, I saw that too.  Well, in the end, caveat emptor, I guess... :-\

Yeah, all to the same person. Funny, how can you sell multiple items when a specific serial number is being advertised?  ::)

I hope someone didn't get taken for a "fool".
