...sorry, I know this is OT, but this is unbelievably funny. A friend sent me this note (below) along with a link to this Chinese Guitar.

"Not sure if anyone has noticed but recently on ebay, ever since the
inception of Ebay China, there have been mass con sellers trying to rip off
a lot of buyers on Ebay but auctioning fake or non existent items, mostly
high end guitars. Basically, hi-jacking photos from ended auctions and
passing them off as their own.

Some buyers decided to mess with one of these sellers by asking the seller
questions.
Take a look here to see the result.

Warning, this is REALLY funny."

Check out the questions to the seller....classic.

    << <i>You describe it as 'magnetic'. Does this mean that instead of having to hang it on my wall, can I stick it to my freezer to keep it from falling over ? I already feel so exhalted at the prospect of winning it that I cannot sleep.

    A: Hi; Not, this item can hang, but must have the adjunct. Thanks. >>


    Now that's funny!

    I'm assuming he meant electric rather than magnetic?

    This is the same guy that was selling fake
    U.S. coins last week.

    Free-trade is a great thing. Thank you eBay for
    bringing magic coins and guitars to America.

    well that was good for a hearty laugh. My god, some of those questions were hilarious! What's even funnier is it's not a bass, it's not midnight blue, AND the dude was answering questions from "Jimi Hendrix" and "David Gilmour" and he had absolutely no idea what he was talking about. Anybody notice the high bidders name?

    The guitar auction was pulled by eBay.

    Everyday, I see more and more fraud from eBay
    sellers in China and Eastern Europe. eBay needs
    to tighten the noose on these evil-doers.

    This is what Ebay pushed for. A worldwide market where people can scam and steal while ebays turns a blind eye while reaping in worldwide profits. I wonder how Chinas paypal works...........
