I ran the email through an email checker and it came back as legitimate, I have used email before esp for extra pix etc   tbh thought nothing off it.

• Where are you? 
• I'm on WhatsApp xxxxxxxx if it's easier 
• 
  
• Hi, I'm in kingston
• 
  
• Would you ship it?
  Other option is me training it down to London I guess but new year beckoning. 
• 
  
• Yes, I can ship and update you with the tracking number.
  
  Here's my email for quick reply : suhrtone@gmail.com

That's my conversation. Seemed fine but seemed odd that last bit, so I bailed. 

Hope it goes OK for everyone.

If they can log in on here then it’s equally possible to send a simple ‘I know I’d committed to posting it today but won’t be able to as x has happened’ would suffice.

edit: appreciate this is commenting on a FS thread but there’s a community interest in this. I hope it’s all above board and simply a changed email.

Agree there is a community interest, wonder if any other members had successful dealings with this individual.

Why have the prices disappeared on this and the Dusenberg. Isn't that against the rules of the for sale ads. I hope the buyers get these guitars but something doesn't smell right to me.

I don't this this guy is too worried about the rules, don't think I will be getting the guitar.    Not sure why but he has now edited the ads.

It's just another irregularity is all. I really do hope you get the guitar but radio silence is never a good thing. Not sure what your comeback is. How did you pay and presumably there's a bank account that can be traced to reverse the transaction if you still don't hear tomorrow.

@moderators, please can we reinstate the original ad (& the Mike Campbell one) and lock down @suhrtone's account. Its evident the ads placed are clones of ads from the US and they are fraudsters. I would assume the old account has been cloned. I've emailed their previous address highlighting what's happening on here so would be grateful if you can help out here.

Research by another member:

Both the descriptions used in this ad and the Duesenberg are word for word copies of adverts from US listings on offer up. We can’t view them in the UK without a VPN but if you google the wording in the adverts they are listed.
