Is it real or is it memorex? This is a second chance offer...I'm having doubts..what do you guys think about this? Something is just not right.

I think the seller forgot a digit 2, in the BIN price. He says, if the auction goes over $1,500.= the buyer gets all 3 pickups.
With a BIN of $499,99 the auction is over at $499.99 and the normal price of a second hand LP Custom is surely higher than $1,500.= (Standards go from €1500.= and up in Holland).

Making such mistakes a second time with such an expensive guitar is indeed strange...
If you don't trust it, trust your gut feeling.

Pitviper,

This is the third of its kind I've seen. Both previous auctions were the result of the eBay account being hijacked along with the contact e-mail address. The hijacker would place an item for auction with a very low BIN and will take the payment and run.

How do I know? It happened to me this May and I had to change my email address. My eBay account is still in dorment.

You nailed it..

From the seller...

"I am not giving you a second chance offer. the guitar has already been sold. I wanted to make sure you knew that it was already SOLD and shipped off. Someone is emailing the bidders from my auction pretending to be me."
