1971 comp orange fraud

Post by rodvonbon »

I saw THIS auction on the bay and thought it looked familiar since THIS one is up for sale at the same time. Deja vu?
The seller mostly sells dresses and shit, but there is a hand full of pricey guitars in there too. All of them have the same "contact me first or I will cancel the bid" bullshit.
I don't think the seller knows of the auction so I sent them a message.
I hate shit heads ripping people off.

Three cheers for you, sir!

Hopefully most people who see this auction while it's still up will realize it's a fraud. I imagine most people interested in a competition orange 'stang will notice the auction looks fishy.

Rodvonbon is buying one of every style/year so that when he has them all, he will throw the ss.org meetup and give everyone a mustang to play "smells liketeenspiritz" at the same time and get in the guiness book of world records.

That's not entirely true, I've got a bunch of guitars, but am only really interested it '69 competition Mustangs. I would gladly host a meetup at my place, but NO Nervenner allowed!
I just took some pics, check the photo thread in a few minutes :wink:

You gotta fix a Mustang? It's like two switches, two pots and a jack?
