"it is inevitable that there will be some blemish on the guitars. When selling this kind of guitars, you can transform this disadvantage to advantage, you could tell your customer that every guitar has its unique outside and tone colour . It will be well!" |

It will be well !  hahahahahahahaha!
I do feel sorry for those guys though, trying to make a living doing the best they can with the communist crap they're given. It's actually kind of sad, really.

You will not be able to return it for any sort of refund, and all of this is assuming you receive any goods at all.
