Not sure where else to put this thread, so hope this is good.
I've been in contact with MGM about preordering a Kala Acacia Tenor. I know he has a superb reputation and he's been very helpful so far.
Apparently he does not have any in stock currently so he's taking preorders and requested $320 through Paypal, though not through an actual ebay transaction. I'm pretty confident in foregoing all my buyer protection/insurance and sending it to him, but I want to verify that this is standard practice.
Has anyone done this before? The e-mail I've been receiving communication from him is musicguymic@aol.com.
