Subject: RE: Taylor GuitarXXV-GA 25th AnnivModel Ebay
The next-to-last picture in the ebay listing -- the "straight-on" view of the inlay on the fingerboard -- wasn't a photo of the instrument for sale taken by the seller. It was taken FROM the Elderly Instruments site:

http://www.elderly.com/vintage/items/images/20U/20U-9520_inlays.jpg

As you see, the angle, background and cropping of the seller's image are all exactly the same as Elderly's pic. The seller didn't even bother to recrop the image or recolor it in Photoshop.

Like I said, buyer beware!
