Members hondro Posted December 7, 2005 Members Share Posted December 7, 2005 someone should really post how to do ebay links here is the correct onehttp://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-Fernandes-Ravelle-X-Guitar-Metl-Gray-Neck-Thru-Body_W0QQitemZ7372455647 when posting the item copy and paste then delete from the end of the item number and beyond, cutting it off at the end of the item number Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mateo150 Posted December 7, 2005 Members Share Posted December 7, 2005 I dunno, I've never heard of Ravelle's.... I'm guessing they don't make them anymore? Hence... that guitar is about as new as a porn stars kitty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members aerorockjax Posted December 7, 2005 Author Members Share Posted December 7, 2005 I doubt anyone would fall for that but its just wrong. Maybe sller is hoping someone bids and wins it without looking at the pics. When the buyer gets the guitar and finds its a bolt on guitar will complain to seller and report to ebay. The seller will say all the pics clearly show exactly what buyer would get and its clearly shows a bolt on neck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SlayerofShadows Posted December 7, 2005 Members Share Posted December 7, 2005 What's the point of trying if he posts a picture of the neck joint? Not only is it low, but he/she/they must be very stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Shocker Posted December 7, 2005 Members Share Posted December 7, 2005 To me, it's just keyword spamming. It's not like the guy put the BIN price like it was an actual neck-through model. //S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JoeBoy Posted December 7, 2005 Members Share Posted December 7, 2005 I ask this question to the seller. It says neck thru body, yet the pics show a bolt on, and that low end model comes as a bolt on. Is it a bolt on? You might want to correct the ad to avoid a return. :evil: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Not this time, tho'.) Potential bidders staying away to punish the seller - not likely IMO , buying it off the guy at a knock down rate is a much better way of punishing them.
