The guitar ostensibly signed by Taylor Swift, before its new buyer smashed it in a viral video, is now up for sale on eBay.
The listing claims the instrument is the same one a Texas man purchased at a live auction for $4,000 only to immediately destroy it with a hammer — as seen in a video seen 23 million times since it was posted Sunday — TMZ reports.
The bidding starts at $100 and the listing is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity that assures the buyer the instrument “has been personally signed by Taylor Swift and is guaranteed to be authentic,” according to the image published by the outlet.
The assurance is a bit eyebrow-raising though as TMZ notes that the certificate lacks the seal usually found on similar verifying documents.
An insider close to the 34-year-old Grammy winner’s merchandise company told both TMZ and Variety that not only was the guitar not signed by Swift, but it’s not even an official merchandise item. The company added that the certificate didn’t come from them.
