not a new concept at all...

Missing pickguard. Nice nut!

[Seter]

I'd be interested in it, but I'm afraid it might sound too tinny.

[Roger Moss]

I'm not sure it's a mandolin either.

'Repaired by a welder'.

I don't know about anyone else, but that's a first for me . . . . (and hopefully a last!)

But it was only $80. All it needed was a new nut - with a complete new mandolin attached to the nut.

That one's gone, but it redirects to this. The next-to-last sentence is an interesting way of describing the situation.

(laugh) Oh, that phrase just lends itself to endless jokes, puns and otherwise crude remarks . . . but I'm trying to be a good boy, so I will pass . . . .

Price Gouger? https://www.ebay.com/itm/323529517449?ul_noapp=true
I emailed him to say it has a value no greater than $150. He agreed but said he is trying to change the price but having difficulty. He did offer to sell it to me for $99. Scammer? I reported the item to ebay.

Wow. I need to spend more time on eBay looking at $100 mandolins. Look at ALL those glowing, positive reviews at the bottom of the page. There's some real sizzle to go with the steak. I'm sure all of those reviews have been validated and were placed there by people that truly care about the Rogue RM-100A.

Best drunk ebay purchase ever?
This is a blast to play. I've been playing guitar for years. This was easy to learn and fun to play. It has a nice tone to it. It stays in tune pretty well. I would buy it again and I would consider any other Rogue instruments based on my experience with this.

Amazing Mandolin For The Price
This is just simply an amazing mandolin for the price. If got there and it tuned perfectly! There were no broken E strings that I find with cheap Instruments. The paint job is fantastic. There's no badly painted or lacked places. It's all even. The pic guard was a loyal loose but I easily just tightened it up with some tweezers and a Phillips screwdriver. Most of all I live in Colorado Springs and up here most cheap instruments untune instantly for weeks, this bad boy not only had minimal i tuning but also sounds like a real mandolin. I was able to take it to two open mics and perform with it. So end of the day this is a fantastic mandolin with an amazing price. I would be more then happy spending double what it cost. So thank you guys or creating cheap quality work.

He only needs to sell one

Not bad for an instrument that musiciansfriend.com has on sale for $50.00 much of the time.

Dang! My thought, exactly. Beat me to it!

[Jeff Mando]

His shipping is certainly reasonable for a $1300 instrument........

This one is on the Charlotte, NC Craigslist. I love the description: "Great copy of expensive mando" $200

You could hurt yourself looking at that scroll...

I'm embarrassed that that thing lives so close to me

[HonketyHank]

Well, take a guess at what sort of mandolin attracts the most watchers on eBay. Then look here: http://www.watchcount.com/mw2.php?bcat=10179#serp .

It kind of tells you where the market is.

Frankly, I was pretty surprised to see how far I had to scroll to find something I might have on my watch list.

I had to put that arm rest on my list just to think about it.

[jim simpson]

This one! Priced cheap for an unmarked mandolin, lol! Perhaps the vintage leather strap is where the value is?

[George R. Lane]

This why I never look at ebay, except when you folks add to this thread.

[HonketyHank]

Shoooey, what a deal I bet I can get the neck reset and sell it for at least $4800.

[jim simpson]

Not a mandolin but had to share due to the seller's comments:

The minor issues are pictured. The pulling at the neck looks significant but does not influence sound or playing. It is simply cosmetic.

They need to go back to cosmetology school.

[Timbofood]

Cosmetic, like a compound fracture of the thumb!
