I’m looking into this one:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7350947245&fromMakeTrack=true
and I’ll report back (I’ve asked for extra pics). The usual worries; the seller has a zero rating (since 2003!!!) and an outrageous £20 postage. This is the Selmer Little Giant and the photo, I am absolutely certain, is a library shot. It might be from Tim Fletcher and Steve Russel’s excellent Selmer site. The little thing is not much bigger than a vintage radio, so the postage price is a joke. It just looks too good (OK, a missing knob) to be right.
I’d advise caution before bidding, and definitely before paying. Two years ago, the scams were ’59 bassmans and LPs. We’re not that stupid these days, but a lot of scammers have simply moved to x-hundred $/£/euro items instead. It’s still easy money. Caveat emptor, as they say…
