TB2000 #482, which was originally listed by Nation Wide Guitars on 10/2 (
http://www.travisbeanguit.....fuseaction/forum.view.htm) has been recently relisted on eBay.

http://cgi.ebay.com/1976-.....1318&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

The original auction went up to $3000, but failed to meet the reserve, yet this new listing has a BIN at $1300??? The photos listed were the original photos from Nation Wide Guitars as well.

Listing has been reported.. and removed. Looks like there were multiple other guitar auctions with similar listings as well.

Thanks!

It's back - and still looks shady. Seller didn't list it as buy it now, and wants to be contacted at an email address (unclear if its tied to the ebay account)

Looks likely that its a hijacked ebay account. Shady business!

Check other items 'for sale':

This listing is 100% bogus. It's has been listed 3 times under 3 different seller account IDs and removed every time today. Not sure why it's still up with this particular seller's account.

It looks like like someone was able to get a 'legit' accounts and list the auctions through them, but encourage potential buyers to email them.. where I'm sure a 'deal' is struck. Looking at the other auctions for all the sellers trying to list this item, I see many guitar/amp related auctions. All with the same BIN information, etc.

As I said.. 100% bogus.

Listing has been removed. I'm sure it'll be back. That's the 4th time today.
