A few years back I sold a vintage amplifier on Craigs. Quick sale good price, I was happy.
Sometime later I noticed a listing for the same model. I took a look because the model is not so common. Sure enough the ad had a picture showing my amp, on my rack, with my other stereo equipment and wall art in the background. I flagged the ad then posted my own warning would be buyers that something odd was going on. I suppose it could be the case the poster actually had such an amp but did not have a camera. Sure seemed fishy though.
