I saw this ad on Gumtree today from someone looking for a guitar for his kid. I couldn't help chuckling ...
"Looking for a used guitar, with vinyl strings for new child learner. Must be pre-tuned."

There was one that ran in The Star for ages that read
Electric Guitar with strings and Amplifier with built in speaker
Martyr

Someone should write a translation guide for some of these adverts. You know, something like:
Needs care - completely f****d up
Vintage - Old, f****d up and overpriced
New - Only slightly f****d up by some kid who never learned to play it
Just serviced - ...and the tech said I'd better replace it before it completely disintegrates
Unique - Weird
Custom built - Badly built
Customised - I f****d it up myself
Professionally setup - Someone else f****d it up
Rare - No-one else bought any of these lemons
Price reduced - Unsellable
Professional model - I paid too much for it and want to get some of it back
Pristine - it's so cr*p, I never used it.
Ovation - Ovation
...and don't you love it when someone describes it as "the bestest in the whole wide world" (or words to that effect). Then why are you selling it?

Very Good Alan
Similar to how estate agents make property sound so attractive.
Lethe

Now now Alan we don't use the term F****d up, its pre reliced or genuine reliced or professionally reliced depending on who f****d it up. as in "I have a pre reliced 1977 Mercedes Benz"
