There is a mint 1978 Gibson Les Paul Silverburst on eBay right now. I've been searching for one in good condition for years and years, now. I finally find one and the seller is acting strange.
I emailed him to ask if I could bid on the guitar, since I'm currently out of the country for a few months and he said it was no problem. Then, he goes and blocks me from bidding. I also asked him to verify the serial number by showing a picture of the back of the headstock and he basically says, "I can try and get a photo, but I'm telling the truth...the serial number I listed is what it is...what more can I say." There's an hour left in the auction and still no photo and no response from the seller about why he blocked me.
And, I was willing to pay a hell of a lot more than what it is currently selling at.
Plus, he keeps making reference to Adam Jones wanting to buy it. I think he's just doing that to hike up the price.
I'm quite angry right now because I've wanted this guitar for about 10 years and when I finally find one this crap happens.
