      That looks like it's in really good shape. Yeah you might have overpayed a little, but you're certainly not an idiot. Just be aware that if you turn around and sell it, you're unlikely to get even close to $999 for it. If I were you, I'd change those ugly-ass knobs to the proper ones when you get it.

      Black RRs are fucking metal!!

        Seller is a member here. If I were serious about buying it, I would have shot him a pm and asked if there was any wiggle room.

        They are great guitars though. I hope you enjoy it.

              That's a well made guitar. Worth every cent you paid.

              Lately I've seen those go for well over 1K on Ebay. People seem to be willing to pay that for them lately.

                      Value is subjective. That guitar might be worth $1,500 to someone who just has to have it, whereas, to someone who likes Strats, not so much.

                      Plus, market values fluctuate enormously. A couple of years back, I picked up an electric blue USA RR for $950. At the time, even that was only considered an OK deal. At the time, RR Pros were going for $500-600.

                          I don't really see any reason to pay less for a real Pro like this than a USA model.

                              And don't forget, Daniel, you buy the seller, not the guitar. With me, there's no bs, this one is a straight up tone monster and I described it completely accurately. Plus, I worked you out a cool payment option that most sellers would have held their nose up to. So it'll be cool in the end. For what it's worth, I listed this same exact guitar a month ago and got a buyer for $1300, but he flaked on me after the auction. So yes, some people are willing to go over the G mark on these...
