a fake squire? What's the point? It's a squire. Enough said.


I sent emails to the 2 highest bidders warning them, and advised them to retract their bids, and an email to ebay, so taht makes two of us chris.

and unlucky for the guy who outbid him. People need to be a little less trigger-happy and open their eyes before bidding on this tat.

Oooops forgive me,,,it's an old Jemsite habit. Anyway, thanks for confirming my suspicions. I emailed the guy last light and his reply this morning was rather snotty ( cap locks on ) "OK I THINK I KNOW WEEN I BOUGHT IT." And yes he spelled "Ween". Apparently it matters not what year is stamped on the neck it only matters when you bought it. So that blows the hell out of collectors value I guess. I love catching these "fuk'rs", especially when you have the backing of a couple forums like this one and the jemsite to flood the bastards with emails and warn bidders.

I sent a message to the high bidder as well, as did a few other people.

Write back to the guy, and casually suggest to him that we can recommend a few great places to get a good price on a nice seven string guitar.

They even have a fake squier, and the headstock was all shifted! Damn that's funny... so sad too, as half the products today are made in China
I like their fake ESP Forest myself. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/wonderful-Chi...QQcmdZViewItem

Sadly we'll never be free of the con artists trying to pass of cheap shit as the real deal.
