I also had a poor buying experience with him in the past and have been warned not to deal with him. I know for a fact that he sold a partcaster with a fake Fender Custom Shop neck which was described (and priced) as genuine.
The way he tries to hide his identity when doing deals shows what kind of character he is and the poor reputation he has. No doubt that’s also the reason behind the rebranding as Protone.
How?
He makes you an offer, which you accept, it’s now his to try and sell at whatever price he likes.
Do you know for a fact that he knew it wasn’t genuine though?
(just playing devils advocate to be honest, especially as I don’t understand why people get annoyed when they see something they happily sold being advertised again elsewhere)
Not with a bargepole.
Mentioning someone and their business by name on a public forum and stating derogatory opinions and ‘facts’ is however bad form as far as I’m concerned.
It's why Greenwood, in a number of different incarnations has been banned from this community.
As I said above, if someone is willing to be deceitful as a buyer, then why would you trust them as a seller?
I don’t have a problem with people buying and selling for a profit. It’s the manner in which Craig goes about it that’s the issue.
I certainly wouldn’t pay the near grand he’s offering - were you looking for about £750? I thought that was a bit high...
If he wasn’t upfront about being a dealer then that probably sours the whole experience for you. But if you got your £600 and it solves a short term cash flow then it’s a win.
