Title: A Sucker Born Every Minute

Check out this one.  Looks like vintage chipboard to me.  Ah yes, nothing beats the protection of aged cardboard!  And only $565!  Such a deal!

The tragic thing is that this price may not be too far off.   I have a friend that deals in vintage guitars.   He was telling me how shocked he has been recently to see some of these original chipboard cases go for up to $800.00

Read the listing carefully.  What makes this a Martin case?  The guy got it with a Martin that was too small for the case.  So now it's a Martin case?
