Just blows my mind.
As an aside,
I am looking for a truss rod nut and a washer or two for my real MIJ Geddy. Anyone know the thread size?
8-32?
10-32?
10-24?

Are you geddy to rock? I said ARE YOU GEDDY TO ROCK?!

The seller did add the word "Custom" in the title...

"Item location:
Guangdong, China"
Said it enough....

How does one mess up a headstock shape that bady? It is one of the easiest thing to get right when you are doing a counterfeit instrument...

They accidentally grabbed the old Teisco headstock template.

It’s not often that you find an eBay seller with 0 feedback.

I'm legit curious how that basswood neck will hold up.

 

[Muddslide]

But...but Geddy signed the back of the headstock!

It's right there, plain as General Tso's chicken over house fried rice!

 

[JACink]

It's a simple spelling mistake, the seller meant "Chum Lee".

If done right it's a fantastic meal.

Wait, I'm confused. The headstock says Made In U.S.A., but the back of the neck says Crafted in Japan....

It's a Trans-Pacific partnership! The front of the neck was made in the USA, the back was crafted in Japan!

They made the headstock separately so Geddy could sign it?

Shows how much eBay doesn't give a crap about counterfeit goods. I saw this listing and immediately reported it via eBay's scam alert email address. Pointed out wrong bridge, decal, headstock, and that it's improbably both "Crafted in Japan" and "Made in USA." Got no response whatsoever. Your average TB'er can see it's an obvious fake, but I worry some innocent buyer wouldn't, which pisses me off.

The cardboard box looks like authentic cardboard!

dhgate counterfeit cardboard, seen it a million times

I reported the seller that had 5 or 6 identical Steinberger XM-2's for sale in Japan. All the exact same photo and description. They are all still listed.
Meanwhile, I had an ad pulled because one potential buyer didn't "agree" with my shipping cost (btw, actual shipping + packaging) and reported me.
Why bother.

I'm guessing the 9-year-olds who make them haven't completely developed their hand-to-eye coordination and fine motor skills yet.
