Hey WAKE UP FOLKS! These tuners are Stew Mac "Elites" not Waverlys. Bidding is already up to $97. + $5. shipping. You can get 'em from Stew Mac for 61 bucks.

Up to $137.50 last time I looked. The nerve of some people. This deal reeks of disception and dishonesty. http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif Lp

All the bidders are listed as the number of bidder, ie: bidder1, bidder2 etc. Is this something new on ebay or is this particular to this seller? Seems to indicate a scam from the get go.

eBay just made that change. I think this model just opened up a whole new line of fraud.

Where is the listing?

Well, somebody is trying it again...this time gold. That ought to fetch more!

If Dale was still around he'd start bidding them up to 3 or 4 grand like he used to do with the Indonesian scams.

Well, since it worked the first time around with the nickel set (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250074533453), he's trying it again with the gold set (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250076607458)... http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/rock.gif
Mmmm.

I tried to contact alpinart (the winning bidder and I think a cafe regular) and eBay won't even let members contact the winners (i.e., after they're known). This is going to be the end of me and eBay. . . .

I was able to send an email to the winner. Did you click on the winner's feedback and then click on the Contact Member button? I agree with you, eBay has really gone downhill.

The winner contacted me and realized what they had done. Maybe they can work something out with the seller.

I emailed the seller and asked if they were made by Waverly or did they fit Waverly hole spacing. No response, but the auction is gone.

Looks like someone pulled the gold set. Hope they're done with that game.
