Guys looks like scammers at it again, Craiglist ( Glasgow Scotland) has a D10 Franklin listed for £2200.I am 99.9% sure that it is scam, as far as I know there are no Franklins in Scotland, and I pretty much know all the Scottish Steelies. _________________ MSA Millenium SD10, GK MB200, Sica 12inch cab, Joyo American Sound Pedal/ Jay Ganz Straight Ahead amp, Telonics 15inch in Peavey cab, Digitech RP150, Peterson tuner.Hilton volume pedal.Scott Dixon seat and guitar flight case. |

Hi Malcolm
In the 0.1% chance that this is a bona fide sale, I have contacted the seller and am waiting for a response. Will let you know what happens.

Be VERY careful. I got scammed on an Emmons from overseas. It cost me $1,600 to learn my lesson.
I even got an e-mail from e-bay on how to make payment. The trouble was, it wasn't for e-bay. The notice I got had an extra period in the e-mail address and that's how the scammers got by with the scam. |

Erv, don't think Ken has had any reply from them yet, no one sells a Franklin for that price. _________________ MSA Millenium SD10, GK MB200, Sica 12inch cab, Joyo American Sound Pedal/ Jay Ganz Straight Ahead amp, Telonics 15inch in Peavey cab, Digitech RP150, Peterson tuner.Hilton volume pedal.Scott Dixon seat and guitar flight case. |

That is real money, been about a lot longer than your currency. _________________ MSA Millenium SD10, GK MB200, Sica 12inch cab, Joyo American Sound Pedal/ Jay Ganz Straight Ahead amp, Telonics 15inch in Peavey cab, Digitech RP150, Peterson tuner.Hilton volume pedal.Scott Dixon seat and guitar flight case. |

Even after living here in the USA for eighteen years I still find myself subconsciously 'converting' dollar amounts into 'real money'.
It keeps me grounded!
Of course, I buy my groceries with Monopoly money like everyone else here.  _________________ Roger Rettig: Emmons D10, B-bender Teles, Martins, and a Gibson Super 400!
