Scam/Fake? Fake removed immediately by Facebook Marketplace

[DavidUK]

It had been on for 6 days. Poor copy with Yamaha branding. Seller advertised it as a "Replica Yamaha EX875."
I reported it as counterfeit to Facebook and it was removed within 30 seconds!

Previously, reporting seemed to have no effect. Maybe they got their act together?

Good for you David, I’ve spent to many hours looking at items that prove false.
One for the good guys.

One other thing I noticed in recent days is the number of YAS-280s in FBMP for £38, £70, £80.

Reminds me of the decorator joke:

Posh bloke asks the decorator to paint his porch. Does a lovely job with a couple of coats of Wickes trade gloss. Rings the client and tells him it’s done and looks lovely. Then adds “by the way it wasn’t a Porch, it was a Lamborghini.”

And a true story.
Years ago I said to my sister I'm thinking of getting a Porsche and she said 'Chris, (her husband), will build one for you like he did on his parents' house'.

Here in Los Angeles we’ve had a boatload of YAS 200ADii . New in the factory carton. Made in Indonesia. Listings in May @ $1200. Now $700. Practically none are selling.
