And once again eBay they have decided that calling a very obvious Chinese Gretsch fake a 'Gretsch' completely brazenly in the body text of the advert is not in violation of their policy.
So there you have it in black and white ... eBay regards aiding and abetting criminality to be within their guidelines.
I sincerely hope that those who claim eBay isn't that bad pay heed to this ... the truth is that the corporate entity of eBay doesn't give a damn about buyers or sellers, they just want their fees. Their hiding behind 'if it's fake you'll get your money back' in the knowledge that enough folks will be duped and not claim or be too embarrassed to claim and they will still have hold of your money long enough to earn interest on it.

It's a different process they follow for that. Worth a bash but wouldn't hold my breath.

Maybe that's my punishment for reporting this one!
I'm pretty sure eBay get away with this because technically they aren't selling the item, they are selling advertising space.

I know a fake guitar is unlikely to endanger anyone, but people are getting mugged off with this shit and losing a lot of money.

Then, IIRC, you're supposed to destroy the fake item - because it's fake - rather than return it. That definitely IIRC though, because I might have that bit wrong, I'm not at all sure of the correct and legal basis, etc.
But *IF* IRC, and that is the process, he might get a bit pissed off if his stock keeps getting sold and then trashed.
His prices change more than the weather, so no.
