theodie said:hmm....how do we know they are legit? Most times I have seen CS pickups on Ebay the original box is pictured to prove what it is. That dude dosent even have a picture of the back of the pickups!

I am the "dude" selling those two pickups on Ebay. To address your concern: HOW can I have a picture of the back of the pickups when they are still installed on my guitar and I have not taken them out yet??? There's no point in ripping them out if no one is going to buy them. The minute someone confirms they want to buy the pickups I will take them out and if they like I will take pictures of the back before receiving payment.
As for wether they are "legit" or not: feel free to contact my dealer for confirmation, Guitar Asylum in New York, who received the pickups directly from Seymour Duncan and installed them in my guitar. The reason I don't have the original box is because my dealer never gave it to me after installing the pickups and I forgot to ask them to keep the box and send it to me together with the guitar I had ordered from them. Furthermore, my sales order number and my customer number is written in my Seymour Duncan custom order form and by asking Seymour Duncan to check in their records I am sure they can verify that my custom-made pickups are indeed LEGIT.

theodie said:Another question, did you really send your guitar overseas just to have pickups installed???? If so, why?
theodie said:Do you really want to sell them or do you just want to list them just for the hell of it?
Thanks for the compliment.DeadSkinSlayer3 said:Humphrey Bear just happens to be a douche.
FretFire said:You don't want to take 5 minutes to pop the pickups out and take some pics of the back if no one will buy them... yet not many will buy them without shots of the back to prove authenticity... the choice is pretty clear if you ask me.
Word up!FretFire said:You know, it's not a lot of effort to take the pickups out of the guitar and take shots of the back if it will help insure a sale. You don't have to desolder them and everything, just unscrew the mounting rings and take a shot of the back. It's not that hard. Hell I'll SAY I want to buy them if that's all it takes. I think you jumped the gun and got a hasty attitude a little too easily.
Let's walk through the logic here...

Kylix, I am just trying to say, if you dont want to take more photos of them its your listing fees you are wasting not mine.
I am sold quite a many things on Ebay and I have a very good idea of what works and what dosent work!
