I want this particular guitar. I'm dead. I'm gonna order this thing.
Can I order from Ishibashi to Germany with no hesitation?

Never buy a guitar from Japan on ebay. They're just random people flipping guitar stock they don't even own -- you always find it a good 15-30% cheaper on the actual dealer pages and there's very few that won't deal internationally these days.
I do it all the time with no issues. I think that as long as the seller has good feedback, it's fine. All about doing your homework in my opinion. As with anything else.
Oh, I'm sure you'll get your guitar and everything. You'll just pay way more than necessary.
Not in my experience. In the listing, it says tax and shipping are not included. I'd be curious to know what the price is after all of that. I've inquired directly to dealers before and a guitar that was listed as $1800 quickly got up to $2500 with taxes + shipping + customs. So, all in all maybe a $100 - $200 difference from an eBay price, which, to me, is not that much of a headache.
But like I said, just my experiences, which have overall been very positive for me and my wallet. Maybe I'm just lucky though. My only point was to do your research first and then make the decision you're most comfortable with. It also helps that the language barrier is not as much of an issue for me though.
You pay customs either way. I mean, when you buy from these ebay middle men, you're paying a guy to go to the guitar store, buy the guitar, go home, pack the guitar, ship it to you, and make a profit that's entirely in addition to the profit the guitar store makes.
I'm just personally very annoyed at these guys as they ruin the great used deals on guitars that you can get in Japan, and there's so many of them that my ebay saved search is always half over-priced guitars from Japan. So the number of listings that are guys doing this vs. the number of listings of actually dealers selling their own wares is overwhelming.
Do pix of their NAMM show guitars ever leak in advance?
Video went up today of the 2017 Exhibition Limited stuff.
Speaking of which, I'm really rooting for the USA stuff and it's direction. Just posted this in the GAS thread, but hot damn, looking fly.

So did anyone else notice there are no E-LPs in that Edwards catalog? I can't believe they would have dropped that line...
Will you buy one for the good of all of us in the ESP Owners Club?
