UK Craigslist/Shetland scam?

[trevor]

I think I have come across this before either here or on another forum.

H4 mandola listed in London Craiglist but the owner is in the Shetlands.

Any info would be appreciated.

Trevor,
If its of any use I saw a H4 mandola in a small music shop in Clonmel Co. Tipperary, Ireland when I was travelling through there a few weeks ago. I think the shop was called premier music. I am sure a google search would bring up a list shops in Clonmel.

Thanks Noah, they have an H1, I'm looking for an H4.

This guy isn't a very good scammer. He refuses to supply a name address and phone number. Does anyone recognise these photos as their own?

Could this be the same one from 4 years ago Trevor? http://gretschpages.com/forum/vintage-gretsch-guitars/any-gdp-members-near-shetland-england/26682/page1/

Incidentally, the village beginning with a T, mentioned in post 6 is on Orkney, not Shetland. (Talk about going off-topic!!!)

It looks like its the same one Ray.

Can't someone post a listing in another city's CL to get more exposure? I wouldn't think there were that many prospective H4 mandola buyers in the Shetlands. I can't imagine someone sending him money blind without seeing the instrument in person first.
