i have both bought and sold really high end guitars on ebay ..and have had really good experiences..i alway look at feedback of the seller and ask alot of questions about the guitar..before i bid also i dont buy from guitar stores on ebay.. just people like myself trying to buy gear and sell there gear i worry about the big guitar dealers on ebay..also if its over 1000 ask to call and speak with seller most sellers will speak with you over the phone about the guitar...
