Recently bought a new Strat with a totalled neck for $105 Aus. It was exactly as described. Because I want a killer totally unique guitar I have bought a loaded pick guard- from Australia and a hand made neck- from a recognised Fender replacement manufacturer in the US. So far, my Strat has cost, including shipping $380 Australian which is about 10 per cent of its real value. I play in a good working band and my lead guitarist and I have bought several guitars on Ebay- including a reso, some mind blowing pickups and a couple of necks. Caveat emptor- above all but we have no complaints. some screws were missing from one shipment and the vendor apologised profusely and sent them immediately. We happily continue to use Ebay- check the vendors history- it is visible and read the description of each . Be realistic about how much you are prepared to pay for an item and let it go if it goes above the figure- there are always more of the same thing out there. I'm a very happy camper
