Not familiar with Ricks, never had one, but somehow this one looks interesting. Looks old, and neck logo seems to be upside down, which I believe was the case with the early Ricks...

Hmmmmmmmm.........

NOT a Rickenbacker. Seems like a Chinese knock off that someone took the trouble to put some actual Ric parts on. (Tuners, maybe the bridge....)

Yikes.

Someone should report it since there are 4 watchers.
It would suck for someone to scoop up all of that money and put it on a fake bass... :(

Obviously from that brief production run window when Fender acquired Rickenbacker. :lol:

I sent a message to the seller. He/she doesn't appear to be in the business of ripping people off, but doesn't seem to sell a lot of instruments either. If it's still up tomorrow then yeah, report it.
