At it Again? Possible Ebay Scammer 62 SG Standard

1962 Gibson SG Les Paul Standard | eBay

Item number: 170833228444

From first glance seems like the same thing as the ebay scammer Linz719 from a few months ago only he's not stating to pay with only wire transfer this time.

This seller is using a resurrected old account with little feedback but selling a high dollar 1962 Gibson SG Standard for a beyond seems to-good-to-be-true cheap price. $3500 with 19 hours left. This guitar should be in the 12K + range from the looks of it.

Serial number 71432. Is this anyone's SG from the forums? If so I apologize in advance. Seems I've seen these pictures before. Would like to know if it's legit or not. Not for my sake but for any of you guys out there looking for an early SG.

Anyone bidding on this from MLPF be aware and do your research. Hopefully it's one of our own and not a scammer.

EDIT* Add seen here. Location Dallas (ebayer address stated as Bridgeport CT.) posted around same timeframe.
Same Pictures as Ebay auction.

AND here. Different price same ad and pictures appear to be from same shoot.

Listed Feb 29th for $2400
http://boston.backpage.com/MiscForSa...ndard/19564755

Now I found this add stating guitar was sold in 2008 for approx $9700 and these ARE the same pictures. This may be the genesis of this current ad as it states it was sold and the fact that there are several ads between at least two different countries with all very different prices. Even the same text but this time it has more of the whole story and not "edited" in these new ads.

Hmmm Strange! I was just yesterday looking at a 1962 Gibson SG for the same low price $3500, but this is located in Russia. 1962 GIBSON SG LES PAUL STANDARD EBONY BLOCK W/OHSC. - Pinkbike
