Ebay somehow knows what code YOUR device should display at the time of login.
Huh? How come I don't have one of those "decorder rings"

Does Ebay send them to all registered ebayers?

The ebay frauds are getting near perfect now!
I'm sticking around to find out more about this so-called security key.

I haven't seen the security key for Ebay, but there is one for PayPal.

A-Ha..thanks all for the binding info...there is still a 'ridge' there for the binding to go on,as it were,(rabbet?)..Does that indicate one thing over another...and whether to leave it like that?Thanks again..Phil.

I'm not sure what you mean, Phil...sorry. It indicates the the bass had binding and the binding was stripped off. New binding could be put on, but the markers should be pulled out and re-installed, which is a bit tricky.

I got mine from Paypal, but ebay (and other sites) will be able to use them. I cost $5. Here is the link:

Thanks Paul..Wints suggested that it may never have had binding..in which case,preumably , it wouldn't have had the rabbet...am I understanding this corractly..So really it should have binding..?Phil.

If it's got the rabbet, it had binding. Black position dots would also indicate binding was originally in place; an unbound neck usually has white dots on the side for visibility.
