Here are two examples, which eventually will probably be removed from both my site and banjo-brands.com... but right now they both show identical information, except banjo-brands.com only steals 2 photos, and lowers the price:
http://www.banjohangout.org/classified/27669
http://www.banjo-brands.com/banjo-100888-1929-Vega-Tubaphone-Longneck-with-custom-wooden-case
http://www.banjohangout.org/classified/28917
http://www.banjo-brands.com/banjo-101210-Vintage-Granada
The owner of the website has been contacted by me via email and warned to remove the stolen content, but I have never had a response. Additionally, I've had numerous complaints from people who have attempted to purchase a banjo through banjo-brands.com, but never received the instrument. They then find the banjo on MY website, and somehow think I may be involved in the whole scam!
I assure you I am not. The Banjo Hangout classified ads system (http://www.banjohangout.org/classifieds/) is well-reputed, and many instruments are bought and sold there from real, reputable people every day.

POSTED: Sunday, August 26, 2012So, while I'm willing to believe that the owner isn't scamming people directly, I also believe he has the responsibility to provide a more regulated venue so people don't get ripped off through his site.
