Help me identify the age of this Strat

Post by Reg18 »

This has just been listed locally, could be a scam
But could be legit too. What year does this look like?
Shoreline gold? Does it look real?

Someone has messaged me saying it’s been listed other places before so is a scam. Seemed to good to be true!

And as per expectation, the seller is a bit busy for me to view in person, would I be happy if they sent more pictures though.

Seems like they are open to me viewing in person, makes me wonder if it is real but stolen? Or maybe they will pull out last minute due to something “coming up”

I'd be very suspicious still.

Hey man that's 100% a scam. The images are lifted from a guy called Drazen, a guitar player around Eastern Europe somewhere. Right click and goodle search the image and you'll see. Not a very sophisticated scam by any means, and I've seen this one pop up a few times. The guy keeps trying.
