even though it's now sold, I once again pressed the 'report item' button and wrote: [b][color=#800000]"time and time again I warned you this is a fake and now the buyer has just been robbed of £331 !!!!!"[/color][/b] thats the max length of characters allowed otherwise I would have ranted more! - hope it helps the poor patsy that bought this piece of crap. I also sent the seller another message: [color=#ff0000][b]so you're gonna rob the guy anyway....and a merry Christmas to you..not![/b][/color]

not only did I report it several times I actually chatted with a rep who only insisted I press the report button even though I told him I had, but I was talking to a guy who would only recite from some ebay book of 'dealing with your customer quotes' , it was like banging your head against a brick wall..... Some poor sod just spent £331 on a second hand Encore

[size=6][b]£331.09.... [size=3]shame![/size][/b][/size]

weird..the bid has dropped back to £205, the last bidder must have read our post and withdrew.

[quote name='Acebassmusic' timestamp='1383734767' post='2268217'] My sarcasm was lost in the text..... [/quote]it wasn't lost, but I'm no less concerned

[quote name='Acebassmusic' timestamp='1383727187' post='2268112'] He's amended his listing with "US FENDER PRECISION [b]STYLE [/b]BASS GUITAR" lower down the text......so that makes it all ok now.....unless you miss that bit of course..... [/quote]don't see how that makes it alright...what about the bidders? Can't really move the goal posts after the ball's been kicked.

£215 and rising ....i sent the guy a message saying he's no better than a thief, seeing as he now knows it's fake and going ahead witht the sale anyway... He's going to ruin someones Christmas

it's still up...bloody ebay!

6 bids at £205...i can't stand it....

i told the guy it's a fake and he wrote back asking why i think that as he claimed not to know anything about the subject. So I explained and I told him to Google Fender basses and see if he could find one with that shape headstock. Then I told him to check out Vintage and Encore basses and the plethora of others. But he's continuing with the sale even though he now knows its a fake. I've reported it to Ebay with the 'report button' down on the bottom right of the listing. I know it's not really my business but I feel for the poor saps that are bidding. If you feel the same I urge you to press the 'report item' button too.

[quote name='skej21' timestamp='1383418869' post='2264343'] It looks like Fender have based the new headstock shape on the classic 'peavey milestone' era headstock... [/quote]I think Fender fancy the new Encore basses....i think there's gonna be a lawsuit

[quote name='steve-bbb' timestamp='1383412677' post='2264236'] why does evilbay not have a 'report' button [/quote] it does and I have!
