Ebay Scam Warning
Just a heads up but there have been a run of recent eBay scam listings where the seller asks you to contact them offline via an email address for a low Buy It Now price. Don't fall for it. If you buy on eBay, buy on eBay only. If you do not go through the eBay system you will not be eligible for their buyer protection should you get scammed. I don't want to become the eBay police, but this particular scammer appears to be posting daily, targeting synths, with what appears to be hijacked accounts with tons of positive feedback. If you look on the right of the site here on MATRIXSYNTH you will find a MORE STUFF section just under the Artists & More banner with links for eBay US, UK and DE. I do my best to filter out scammers and these links are tailored for synths, so use them, but of course I can't promise to filter all scammers as I can only filter them after I catch them. As always be smart and trust no one. If you buy off of eBay go through their system for the purchase and all communication (eBay will review all communication in the case of a dispute). If something goes south you should have eBay buyer protection on your side.
