Be aware that Yamaha Tyros and Korg Motif are heavily scammed items on Ebay. Several of us have taken to reporting fraudulent ads and often we bid the price to the moon to discourage others. So if you see a price of $4000 or more often it is a scam. Usually the scam ads will solicit direct contact as they are posted on hijacked Ebay accounts.
The scammers want electronic funds transfer by any of several UNSECURE means and you will never see a product from them. They are hacking passwords by sending spoof emails that ask a question and look like they come from the Ebay message system. They are not and when one types their password to access the message, they got you!
Send any message to spoof@ebay.com for verification.
