I came across this guitar Koiz selling on eBay:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/hand-made-LP-with-Burny-VH-1-build-by-Japanese-Lutheir-Guitar-/171187749998?

He described it having a one Pc solid Mahogany back. Since the bid was over and I subscribed to his Facebook group, I contacted him to buy this guitar. When the guitar arrived, yes it is the same guitar on eBay but it turned out having 2 pcs back which is of significant less value.

I confronted him about this and he claimed that I had never asked him and he never said that it had one pc back, and carrying on saying that a solid one pc back Les Paul would cost over $2000. When I asked why he posted such description on eBay he just avoided answering. I demanded a full refund including all shipping because he posted misguiding description and he declined. I did not ask him again about these details because they have all been laid out in his eBay description and now he is not honoring his words. And I thought all Japanese dealers are honest people, what a lesson.

Beware of this seller!

Sorry to hear that.
Hopefully eBay can refund your lost expense for this.
Another seller of "vintage japanese guitars" you may want to avoid as well is this one:

Known for shill bidding and other sketchy stuff...

From the item description on eBay:

"Body: Center 2 P Solid maple with One P solid Mahogany."

That sure sounds like a 1 piece back to me......

buyer should not start such nega campaign in this forum.
it is out of rules it is.
The first place, this deal is not done on ebay.
nobody win at this auction???.

This link is one of those things when you auction long before the sale of completely irrelevant is satisfied with this trade. But was no one bidder. but I do not sell to affirm never to "one P back maho" in direct transactions with this deal.
The buyer did not pay the money in the two months Sold Out of the instrument. I turned down all other offers. It is insane buyer.Buyer refused proposals for the return from me.Buyer ran this negative campaign to beat the deliberation rule buyer be despite pending in paypal. Ignore my advice

Sorry I am power seller ebay.

Just curious Sat..... from your ebay description, it says:

"Body: Center 2 P Solid maple with One P solid Mahogany."

I read that as two piece solid maple top and one piece solid mahogany back. Is that not correct? And whether the sale was on ebay or not, that is the description of the guitar.
