This amp just sold on ebay for over 5 grand and now here it is with the same pics for 1500. This is one scamming SOB.

    Anytime you see something like that try to immediate make a new post saying the amp is a scam and provide proof. They do that for the Columbus, OH Craigslist listings all the time.

    I reported it as a scam. I had this amp on my watch list and wanted it bad.
    MSRP was $8,500.00 and bluebooked at $5,000.00 used.
    I will look into making the post.

    Not Amazing.
    Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.

    I don't get it. Somebody explain this one to me like i'm a 6year old. It's not new, it was selling for $5,000 so now whomever buys it for $1500 is getting a deal right?

    Well I think everyone's assuming he's not actually going to sell it, he's just gonig to make someone pay for it and then take off with their money. Why else would you take a 3500 dollar loss on something?
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    The week leading up to the sale on the 27th there were 28 bids over $1600.00.
    Russ its only amazing that he is that brave or stupid to use the exact same photos from the ebay sale.

    I don't get what his endgame is... assume that people watch craigslist in other cities and wait for someone from out of town to contact you???

    huh, since I'm local, guess I'll drop him a line & see what happens.
