I didn't check it out completely, did I miss a $775 shipping charge?

I clicked on it. My software said "THREAT SECURED"....

When I clicked on it I got "site cannot be reached".

There's a TON of these fly-by-night "music stores" selling higher end guitars at unrealistic prices and many show up in Google's own shopping results. Most are scams to get your money, personal details and/or credit card info.

If it sounds too good to be true...

My anti-virus software kicked in just by opening this thread. I didn't even click on the link.
