Just when you thought it was safe to go out or that it couldn't get any crazier, I found this on eBay tonight:

5th White Elephant...

I sent him a note trying to clear his fog but doubt it will have any effect.

I saw that one before... When he wanted $25K :p

Yup... This guy is a showman. PT Barnum would be proud.

The guy forgot Janie Fricke, who probably got more exposure with a -6 Elite than any other artist anywhere. That white Ovation was all over country music for years.

Actually, she played one of the collector's models. 88? Super shallow bowl and butt ugly....

I'm not confident with this auction as all the pics comes from THIS PAGE!!!

As the listing is in German, I don't know if he said that the pics are not from his own guitar??

Oh yes, Jerome!!
You are absolutely right. I havn't seen this and he has NOT told in his discribtion that the pics are not from his own guitar.
I'll write him a note and tell him this!

I've got an answer:

"If I have a problem with his auction, I should call him..."

I won't do that, I will inform eBay about that!!
