Hmm...does this look right?

I dunno. This price ends up being US$2,450 (roughly).

What's the US retail of an American C1 Classic? Do they make them, or only the imported ones?

Re: Hmm...does this look right?

My C1+ was around $550 US. I think the Classics are around $650-700 US.

Schecter doesn't have a line of "American" guitars, they have a UScustom shop, and the Korean made, US assembled Diamond Series. The C-1 Classic is a killer guitar, and should fetch no more than 600-650 used, and you can get them for 700 new.

So the person selling this said they bought it in the USA. I guess they're trying to make a large amount selling it in NZ to someone who doesn't know what they go for then...

yup, sounds like some one is trying to rip somebody off. the real us made schecters are killer but that sure doesnt look like one ive ever seen and the diamond series is made over seas

OMG, Guitar Center has those brand new for $700!!

Is there any way we can expose this con artist?

My favorite part: no bids have been placed on this auction

Sometimes, for fun, I like to Email guys like this and ask questions like "is that a real "vintage" Korean made Diamond Series? For $3500, does your hottest daughter come with it?
