I've been checking out this 650 on ebay, I noticed, one exactly like it was already sold in his feedback. The first one in his feedback is the same guitar. Ebay#300018228596 Sold BIN $1000 Anyone got an opinion on this?

Landon,

Here is his response.

Item: Rickenbacker model 650 S (VH) Sierra guitar (300023207765)
This message was sent while the listing was active.
blackieesquire is the seller.

Hello and thanks. This is the same guitar. It was sold and returned for not being clean enough for the buyers collection of Ricks. He was looking for an absolutely totally as new imaculate piece.The guitar is in fact very clean and I do disagree with his assesment but you will notice we left good feedback for each other.It just wasnt for him. who knows why.Maybe buyers remorse. I own a major guitar shop (this guitar is my personal guitar) and I can assure you it is cleaner than most used guitars out there as I take really good care of my instruments. Anyway money back guarantee

Sounds legit. If uneasy, request the seller's contact info through eBay and give the seller a call.

I always offer a no-questions return when I sell a piece of gear...I'm more concerned about the neg feedback than anything else. I think the guy's assessment is probably right on--buyer's remorse, buyer's spouse remorse

, or just a different expectation--if the guitar is returned and reimbursement made it's still a good deal for all. I'd trust this auction.

I went through a similar check on a suspicious Vox AC30 that keeps popping up on eBay with a $850 BIN. It has sold three times in the last week. I called the seller at his store. He said he gets lots of bogus bids and buyers that won't make payment. I decided to go ahead and buy it, but somebody else BIN'd it again before I could get off the phone!

Brian, I emailed him too, and got that same response. I think it's Ok. Everyone thanks for the input. Looks like a nice guitar!! I have a 650D, but This 650S has all the features I've wanted.
Now, I am just trying to decide to pull the trigger on it before someone else does..
