I just wanted to hear your opinions on this guitar I just bought off of eBay (an Epi LP Alpine White). I paid $370 for it, and it also had the “Buy it Now” option for $580.

check the ebay auction here:
Epiphone Les Paul Custom ALPINE WHITE Guitar - eBay (item 220226548546 end time Apr-21-08 20:15:04 PDT)

I got it a couple of days ago, and I noticed all the threads talking about fake LP’s on eBay from China……since I read that, I took a very close look at my guitar and it seems to be fine except that the writing on the cover truss is a little blurry, that’s when I also started to think it might be a fake, and also the fact that it says it's shipped directly from the China factory…..other than that seems pretty “real” to me, I even went to an authorized LP store in Toronto (Steve’s) and they also have an Epi LP Alpine White and compared it with mine and it seems to have the same stuff and nothing really remarkably different.

Just wanted to see what you guys think of it. I checked the serial number and it was made last year 2007 in china, I will take some pictures later when I get home and publish them here to hear your thoughts.

Thanks

KJ

Why would you ask our opinons AFTER buying it? If it IS a fake, it is kinda late now, ain't it?
