I saw an ad on Craigslist for a Red Diamond mandolin at an amazing price. The seller says it is #66, which I have seen discussed elsewhere in the forums (broken peghead which has been repaired). Anyhow, I am not so worried about a broken peghead if is simply a cosmetic issue. I am a little uncertain, as the ad for the mandolin was in Craiglsist in New York City, the person selling claims to be in Florida, and the phone he gave me has an Atlanta area code.
Also a lot of the pictures seemed like stock photos, though he did send one with a view of the crack in the peghead, after I requested it.
Does anyone have any insight into this mandolin? Is it in good condition, etc? Is this a fraud, or is this the real deal, but for some reason a person with an Atlanta phone number who is in (or at least shipping from) Florida, decided to put the ad in the NYC craigslist -- but not in the Tampa Craigslist (I checked).
any insights would be most appreciated. Thanks a lot.
