I remember seeing this a while back. I thought the description was hilarious! " My friend Patel decided he would make himself a Columbia Crapophone. He gathered up the nicest pine board nailed it together and stained it purple! Which looks so much better than oak or mahogany like on genuine machines. It looks truly pretty from great distances away." :lol:

You would absoLUTEly win. I'm sure given the nature of the item, the seller would let you cancel the transaction. I won't be taking any chances, however...
