Greetings Bob and everyone, eBay has little tolerance for sellers whouse
others' photos and material verbatim.   You could email thatseller and get him
to change the wording .   If not, you have a legal rightto ask eBay to shut him down.

Here's the eBay listing listing :

"This is a tape-based analog replay keyboard that  first becamepoplular in the sixties.
These fascinating instruments, originally made famous by groups likeThe Moody Blues,
The Beatles, and Genesis, are enjoying a re-discovery forty years laterby a new
generation of musicians and listeners."

And here's Bob's Website text :

"Welcome to the original Web page devoted to Mellotrons and Chamberlins,
the tape-based analog replay keyboards that first became poplular inthe sixties.
These fascinating instruments, originally made famous by groups likeThe Moody Blues,
The Beatles, and Genesis, are enjoying a re-discovery forty years laterby a new
generation of musicians and listeners."

Notice the spelling error of  "popular."  That clinches it, Bob .  Go get 'im!
