Well I sold that guitar recently here in the UK.

Happen to be my photos also.

So who knows???

Oh, that ain't good! Angry

Shall I cut him a new a-hole or do you want the honours?

Certainly travelled a bit quick.. Cool

If it is the same guitar I've no problem with anyone using my photos.

Ask him how much Barry.

I sent the seller a note today. Let's see if I get a reply other than, "up yours!"

Hello, I am an administrator of the WestoneGuitars.net Forum.
As a service to our members we regularly post ads for Westone guitars found all over the world.
I recently posted your ad and I got a response from a member in the U.K. who said that this was originally his guitar which he sold locally. Moreover you are using his pictures of that sale.
Can you clarify please what is going on here? Is this the same guitar? If it is the original U.K. guitar then our member will allow their use.
However, if this is not representative of the guitar you are selling you must remove them and not use them to sell a different guitar. This is fraud and, be warned, Kijij will be advised accordingly.
If this happens to be the same guitar the original owner would appreciate knowing how it ended up here, also what price you are asking for it. Thanks, Barry

I got a response (sort of):

What are you talking about

Looks like we've scraped the bottom of the Millennial gene pool *sigh*
I tried again using short sentences with monosyllabic words.

I'm not holding my breath, but I will report the little turd if he doesn't come clean.

Man, it's like arguing with a drunk! This guy seems right out of it, but he has changed the pix.

However, these would appear to be taken from an eBay ad! In another nonsensical email he sent to me he included that pic of the neck plate with the caption, "here's a picture" with no explanation.

The link indicates it comes from eBay (archives?): ]https://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/ODAwWDYwMA==/z/-6oAAOSwo8Za5RiT/$_59.jpg]

Most Kijiji folks I've met have been have been decent honest folk, but every once in awhile you come across a bottom feeder with little interest in anything but themselves. They're technically savvy enough to message, email, and download pictures, but too lazy or indifferent to use the camera in that same device to take their own pictures.

Seems he's looking to buy instruments.

by **Barry** Sun Apr 29, 2018 1:51 pm

Who knows what this dipstick is doing? Selling? Buying?
It looks like he has truncated his original ad wording. He was originally "looking for a trade or cash"
