Hes at it again.
The guy with the dodgy Les Paul on Ebay has relisted it with a 1 day
listing and some poor excuse.

Aye, hes re-listed it as a one day auction with a buy it now price of
Ł1,200.

I just phoned Gibson Europe again. It was a different guy this time but
essentially the same story. They have seen a number of fakes with serial
numbers beginning with 0200.

I suspect though that Jose is right about essentially fighting a losing
battle.

The guy at Gibson likened his job to that of Sysiphus

Becasue they would tell you how important it is to them and that they
would look into it at some point.

heh, indeed.

Dont get me wrong, Id happily report these guys... but I also think that
somebody willing to spend this kind of money online has the responsibility
of doing a little research and gathering some background info.
