Buyer beware! There's currently a listing on eBay auction listing a Korg PA4X 61-Key for bidding. stop

After carefully examination of the pictures in the listing you can clearly see that the item is NOT a Korg PA4X but actually a
Korg PA3X !. stop

I'd say that the pictures show is quite bluntly. I often notice similar inconsistencies when I read similar ads on Russian resources. We now that there're quite a number of scams out there, usually it's not about selling a wrong product but about getting your money somehow with nothing in return. As I picture it, people who do that are not really into keyboards and for this reason they are not so accurate with photos (which they can get elsewhere). But sometimes it's just a fair mistake.

Misleading Korg PA4X eBay listing


P.S.
I don't think that the Seller is intentionally trying to
deceive and that they just mislabeled the heading.
In the past when I tried "Being a nice guy" and informed
a Seller of their "mislabeling" instead of the Seller
being appreciative that I was just trying to save them some
grief once the buyer discovers that the wrong item was
listed. Instead the Sellers have responded to me with a
nasty response of "Mind you own business!!!"

So that is why I submitted this post on SZ to warn all
my friends. singer
