1978 Conde 2200$ in Spain

Edit : The ad had been removed (one day after) so I guess it was really a deal...

Hey, for conde amateurs, I've perhaps came across some "deal" (and it pleases me to show that there are still people not going right to the sky with conde's prices) :

Here is the link :
http://www.segundamano.es/fichaI.cfm?id=58455522&total_anuncios=19&categoria_id=12&subcategoria_id=21&seccion_id=2130&palabra=flamenca&precio_min=0&precio_max=0&provincia=0

It's a "small" spanish second-hand website, and i've seen very good offers here - for exemple a 59' Manuel Reyes for 3800$ this summer.
I don't know at all the seller, so be as aware as if you'd came across by yourself.

Anyway, it seems to be a genuine media luna and a rare find probably, as a negra from this era and at the given price !!! (hey, from what year is the famous PDL negra ? close to this one ?)

The problem for non-spanish speaking people is that the only contact left is a phone number...I'm enought spanish-litterate to exchange mails (and help to do the link if someone is interested) but to speak on phone is another question...

Un saludo-

Hey, the reyes had been sold just a few days after the release of the ad, this summer ! I was watching at it but a french guy took the deal before me... For the conde, as the ad is just from today, i think it's still available. The only way to go is to contact the seller by phone...I don't know him...

You want to say that you didn't find the ad on the website ? I thought my link was pointing directly on it...let me know if it's what you wanted to say or if I misunderstood.

OK, so now it's like any private sale : you must speak and speak with the seller, and ask for infos and pictures. Perhaps this guitar had been restored or has some cracks.
But it can also be the "real deal". In some years i've managed to find a handfull of really good offers. But it's still "on the paper". Because for sure you can't try it before.
I don't think at all this one is a scam. Because he would never had put such a low price...
The question now for me is : is the price low because of some poor condition or the guitar being a "bad one" or the seller really don't care about, owns it since a long time (first hand buyer) and now wants to sell it at a low price. (there are lot of old people in spain with treasures in their houses, and one day they are willing to sell it. Sometimes they are not really informed about the market's prices).

You don't have to register on this website, it's private ads, like "craigslist" in the USA. The "only" thing you have to do first is to find a spanish talking guy and give a call to the seller...

Then, If you make the deal with the seller, personally i would ask before payment a picture of the man with the guitar, and a picture of his identity card. That's the best warranty i suppose if you can't pick up the guitar yourself.

Un saludo
