Fake as fake can get.

I must say, all these knockoffs are really starting to make me dislike the real thing (7vwh) because they are EVERYWHERE.

Re: Real or fake Jem auction on e-vil-bay?


Can I just point something out...

Do a search on **** for "C02060876" (without quotation marks) and make sure you have it to search worldwide and tick the little box for item description.

There is only 2 on the UK site at the moment, but I'm sure there'll be a LOT more worldwide.

How can so many guitars have the same serial number?

Yeah, I've seen C02060876, C02060825, C02060834... but generally they are C02060??? except one I saw was S05050396 (which was odd).

I've been reporting fakes to the counterfeit link on e-bay. At times it seems like I'm pissing in the wind... but it seems like the best thing to do (besides also sending the seller and buyer's messages).

Not sure if this would help, but maybe if you guys spot a fake, shoot it to e-bay using the link below. I guess it can't hurt.

The funny thing on that auction is they link them to Jemsite. Hopefully a potential buyer will come across this thread.
