Hi all. Today, I received an alert for a FV1 made by Pitbull Guitars. It's currently sitting at $35, and to those unfamiliar with Ebay buying, looks legit. The warning signs are pretty obvious.
I have a couple of screenshots, for your perusal.

Pit Bull Guitars are only sold on eBay through their Australian eBay site. Unfortunately they still have their old company title, builkdyourownguitar, as the user name (presumably to keep the feedback stars), but the shop name is Pit Bull Guitars.
Anything else is just wrong.
