Worst case scenario, it can be returned. Best case, you get a playable neck for less than the cost of a McDonald's meal.

14" radius, looks like some ok reviews

if it was 7.25, I'd get one.

Now it's back down to $8. Yo-yo pricing....

If this thing arrives and is usable, I have enough spare parts to throw something together.

Ordered a few at $8. Chances are they will never ship.

Well hell. For $8 each, it would have to be twisted to not be worth it. Maybe they need level and crowning and dressing and a nut swap and reaming for the right tuners, whatever. That's just an insanely good price if they arrive. I just ordered 2 and have no plan for what reverse-headstock mod they'd go into yet.

Back down to $8. I got a tracking number but i believe it's fake. Doesn't matter one way or another as Amazon will refund if it never gets here.

I'm getting $8 but have no need for a right-handed neck (or a left-handed one either but for $8...). FWIW, all their other necks seem to be priced around $40 and up. Closeout? Loss leader?

Saw this a week or 2 ago. Didnt order any. I've been down that road before.

*edit... I see theres actual pics and reviews now. Maybe they actually exist? Tried ordering. We'll see what, if anything, shows up.

Down to $5. My money's on this being a scam. Seen it before on Ebay.

The price does make one wonder. I decided to look into the seller a bit more on Amazon, and see what else they have listed. One of these necks is not like the others.

Now I've never played a neck with a 14 foot radius, but I wouldn't think it would look like an umbrella.

Edit: Damnit, I was checking out the brand Fannor above instead of the seller. The seller (tanbi38) is new and has no feedback yet, so yeah, looks scammy. Or could be a loss leader to drive up feedback.

Tracking number looks fake, few minutes after I ordered it was delivered to carrier. I'd definitely say it's a scam the way the price continually changes.

I jumped in for three. I doubt they'll arrive, but what the hell.

If I were going to initiate a scam of this type, I might consider another item. Perhaps something with a wider appeal... Seems odd to pick a guitar neck for bait.

I have tracking info too, from roughly the same shipping origin. Even so, I'm not gonna drag out the fret tools just yet...

Well, i have 3 strat bodies here from Musicalily, probably basswood. Got them cheap from a guy near Allentown (everyone knows where that is) and am going to need 3 necks, so for the price i won't complain. Might do a all black guitar with black hardware since the necks are black.

That went about as sideways as I was expecting. Got a delivery notice but there's nothing at my home. Already contacted Amazon and got a refund processed.
