Another fake on E bay?

[Mister T]

This one looks odd to me (http://cgi.ebay.com/TOM-ANDERSON-HOLLOW-CLASSIC-ELECTRIC-GUITAR_W0QQitemZ350100018178QQcmdZViewItem?hash=it em350100018178&_trkparms=72%3A1205|39%3A1|66%3A2|65%3A12|240%3A13 18&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14). You cannot see the headstock and the pic quality is terrible.

Also that spec sheet looks all wrong. Is that hand written one normal for the era?

[dannopelli]

Well, he'll never sell it at that price anyway.

The caligraphy on the spec sheet is about right, I believe. It pre-dates Tom's expertise with a computer. I just posted questions to the seller requesting better photos and a question about the price.

Maybe, just maybe, he's hoping that our current Administration will be buying guitars at prices adjusted for inflation since 1995. $700 billion is a lot of money to play with if you're a TAG owner wanna be!

Since Alabama is far, far away from here, maybe we're seeing an exchange rate situation.

Nighty night.

good night, that's a lot of money. I especially love the $500 markup since the spec sheet is written by hand- "no cheapie newfangled computer-generated spec sheet!" That kind of old-world craftsmanship is hard to find these days.

ah, well...

I like how positively this seller is thinking in terms of setting up his price to high. We need more enthusiasm and optimism in this world :D

[irish blues]

Arkansas....not Alabama...do not drag us into that Clinton hell hole.:D

[Suriel Zayas]

i threw a question at him about the price and this was his response a couple of days ago.

"I really didn't know the value of this item,so I just put a price on it.As
soon as I determine the correct price,I'll either reduce it or pull
it.Thanks for your input.

It isnt hard to figure out a price...just look at completed items.

[tom]

looks like a legit guitar and spec sheet, just a silly price.

[ConnemaraGuitar]

Here's the response from the seller:
"Hey,I'm going to have to borrow a camera as several people have asked for better pics.As for the price.Did you ever need to sell something but didn't reall want to? I thought if I could get a good price it would be easier to part with,but I'm just going to pull it until I get a good appraisal.Thanks for your input,George"

and my response...

"Hi, George. Thanks for the reply. I totally understand your not wanting to sell. The combination of poor pics and high price didn't get you much traction. You might be able to get $1800-$2300 based on current selling prices on eBay. I suggest you visit the Tom Anderson Guitar Forum for information and potential buyers who appreciate the value of these guitars. There's been a bit of discussion there about your auction! Best regards, Lofton"
