There's a real cracker on eBay at the moment.
The funniest line in the description is

I took it to a profesional guitar store and also investigated online and the price im asking is less than what is worth

I know the eBay link isn't going to work, but here goes:

"Guitar is used but in very good working condition, and good cosmetic condition. It is an awesome guitar but there is no more use for it here.
I took it to a profesional guitar store and also investigated online and the price im asking is less than what is worth"




Oh yeah! This is at least a $4K guitar.

 

[Udonitron]

HAHAHA that is comedy!

But he did say "any bid" will be accepted....! (as long as it is over $4K) yep, he is delusional...

I emailed the guy (probably shouldn't have) and told him I wanted to bid but not at the astronomical starting price...

- Orville by Gibson Les Paul
- SERIAL # G887163
- Includes Case and I can send an amp as well.

Now which amp should I go for.....Hmmmmm Perhaps I'll have a original '58 or '59 Fender Bassman or perhaps a Pignose for ease.

I'll email him, he's bound to reply in 10 mins, he says so!!! Priceless!!!

If he wants people to bid, he should have made it an auction or had a Best Offer option up! I'm sure it's an OK guitar, just way over-valued!

 

[GammyBird]

Yeah, I think he may be a little off on this one.

 

[Drew224]

I wonder what he's selling that to fund.

 

[River]

It includes "an amp".

[MrWrong]

Ishibashi U-Box has a similar looking one for $930

 

[Agave_Blue]

I don't think he's delusional. Just dumb.

He's probably been pricing LP Customs.

OR - hanging around here and hearing how MIJ LPs are the next vintage wave.

Do we realize how hypocritical we are?

Nah, not a chance.

Doesn't something look strange about the pickups on the auction guitar?

I noticed the same thing. I believe he's got a pair of tan rings on that thing.

6.000?

Mexican Peso's might work OK.

Indian Rupee's too.

Iraqi Dinar's even better.

If that's what a "professional" guitar shop priced it at, what in the he'll would an amateur shop quote? Half a mil?
