Nice, but WAY too high.  For that kind of money, there should be a TON of detailed photos, too.

Price wise this is about 300.00 low.  I see a ton of these move in retail circles at 5200-5300 for really nice 100% examples.  I'd blow mine out for 4500.00, it aint as nice (but its nice) and has a wrong case..

I don't know.  To me, this is not outrageous.  $1k to $2k less than any other Embassy out there.  Up front about a stress crack, which should knock it down a peg but not as bad as a repaired break.  And God love 'em, they mention that it was used by Fang. There is a seat in heaven for that alone.  I would have to do well on powerball, but not awful on the price.
