do you think that's a pack of strings with the epiphone logo on it? why is he displaying it like it's case candy? it's a samick guitar lol
 
Just testing myself on this one, he admits it's a copy, so no offence to him. What clues can you spot from the pics that it's fake?

Gibson les Paul replica?? - Oakville / Halton Region Musical Instruments For Sale - Kijiji Oakville / Halton Region Canada.

From what I can see, my checks are: knobs line up-OK, 2 screw TRC-OK, but... case is wrong, fret nibs missing, tuners may not be aligned(?), serial # in white
How am I doing?
Anything else?
"Beautiful almost perfect replica sounds and plays better then the real thing!"

I only want perfect

 
Here's a winner... this sure looks to be in good condition for a 45 year old amp. AND, they had the foresight back then to equip it with a head phone jack.

VINTAGE AMP - Gatineau Musical Instruments For Sale - Kijiji Gatineau Canada.

Not only the foresight to add a headphone jack but they were way ahead of their time making it in China!

It's awesome and works great too! Although I think it would be less awesome if it only worked okay.

Removable grounded AC cable
also way ahead of its time.
 
Maybe the worst amp I ever had. Bought one as a highly portable backstage tune-up/warm-up amp but never could get either a clean or a dirty tone from it, just an inbetween fizzy scratchy racket. Dirt cheap, packed very small, but sounded awful. I liked the look and the idea of this amp, but it was a failure otherwise where it mattered. The Pignose does the job better.

Peace, Mooh.

Hey yo,
My name's Young Coconut, and I suck at self-promoting...
I'm looking for a manager or someone who knows a thing
or two about promoting music online, or otherwise...do you
self-identify with the word "sleezeball"? That's ok.. I'm kinda
weird too! Anyway, I have written tons of potential hits,
and I'm willing to cut you in if you can figure out how to get
them playing in the theatre, you know, before movies and
stuff.. or whatever, I'm open to ideas! Contact me and lets
be bound in a pact of darkness..FOREVER!
check out my tunes:

I saw those and sent them to a buddy of mine, I'm a lefty so they're useless to me. But ya I'd have gone into that deal very very skeptical, I've played enough different LP's I'm reasonably sure I got spot a fake if it was in my hands. (at least I hope I could)
 
From kijiji Halifax (seriously, sometimes I think it is kijiji Deliverance):

"One set of new Gibson USA Buzz Bucker pickups for Les Pauls.

Never used.
The Gibson USA logo is visible on camera, but unfortunately did not come out well on the site.

$150
Serious purchase inquiries ONLY.

As a professional musician, I know the product I have, and what is available for sale. No comments or opinions wanted.


NO EMAILS. Ad poster is not the seller."
 
Kijiji has turned into a gong show, I usually have an average of 10 gear ads running at any one time , my prices are more then fair.
I continuously get bombarded with offers that make low ball offers look good, recently had a guy offer me $200 for a full Marshall stack with a jcm head.
not to mention the guys who tell you your les paul is fake yet still wants to buy it for $400 bucks. un fortunate as over the years have had some good transactions and meet some decent people, but lately it seems to attract trolls
