Luthermusic classified ads moderator..something fishy

[Union]

Hi

I dunno if u guys notice this...it seems that the moderator of Luthermusic will quickly delete off (after taking down the details for himself) those very very very good bargain ads.

For example..the latest one involving Garage Sale by a Jap guitar Collector somewhere in Holland road. A minute ago I saw it after DjThug mentioned it here in soft and when I checked it again, it's not there anymore.

Another one was a 72 Tele selling for $650..the ad lasted only a few minutes..then it's gone.

For stuff which are oredi sold, the advertiser emself will post it...


Wats ur comments?

I think you should bring it up to luther yourself.

This shouldn't be a place to post such things because:

a) We don't know
b) No one can prove it

No point speculating and pointing fingers, or offering "opinions" on this...

Please go to Luther, he's a good man and I'm sure he will look into the matter.

the garage sale ad is still there, electric guitar section, press ctrl+f and search for garage

 

[edder]

the add is still there.

Ibanez Artcore AM73T right? 371 Holland road or something like that.

250 is cheaper than cheap for an ultra playable guitar.

I just got back from there. w00t!

 

[snuffleupagus]

I think that there might be a grain of truth in the Threadstarter's comment. It might not be the Luther management, for that matter, but the good bargains really just seem to disappear after a while.

For example, there was the RC booster ad, Robotalk and Guyatone Metal-Monster ad, which coincidentally was going for a ridiculously low price. Although the RC and Robo ones weren't exactly the sweetest deals.

But the thing is, it was there for a while, and then it's gone when I try to look for it again.

I emailed the sellers for both the RC and the Guyatone, and they duely replied. Meaning that they, for one, are still fully intent on selling their respective ware.

So, what happened? Something wrong with the system?

 

[bluepowder]

hmm was looking for the RC ad myself

 

[Phil]

And you can't find it?

 

[bluepowder]

I found one for 260$,is that the same one...I thought it was lower

[ciel21]

[namle]

someone spam and write the reduced price

DUDE!!!

Its a JS2000. The one with the FX edge bridge, champange gold. Funny how, when it first came out, ppl thought it was overengineered, but now, the FX edge system is really THE most stable tuning/bridge system out there.

 

[DjThugs]

Actually, i rather the JS6 (or is it the JS6000?), the one with the natural oiled mahongany body and fixed bridge.
