Hello guys, I've been away for a while! I'm back to report something I've been watching.
There's a mexican auction site called MercadoLibre, considered as the Mexican eBay. Once in a while I search for Rickenbackers, finding many interesting, mostly vintage models, but also many cheap Chinese replicas like this:

Sometimes they take the advice and cancel the auction, but sadly, some other times they don't understand the nature of the infringement.
Maybe RIC can take some legal actions about this.
Greetings from Guadalajara, México!
