Is this Les Paul goldtop legit?

[Briman24]

Is this 2003 les paul gold top legit? I am not a les paul guy and not experienced at spotting the fakes. The guy or gal is selling this locally for on $1500 canadian. They usually go for $2100 and more!
Here's the link.

Need better pics

As stated, need better pics. The early 2000s were a good time for Gibson.

Need way better pictures.

I messaged the seller for better pics and also asked him or her if the headstock was ever repaired but they haven't answered me yet.
Wondering if it's stolen or some sort of scam. Heard there has been alot of that around Montreal lately. People offer something really cheap like an iphone for 500 then arrange to meet you somewhere and then they pull a gun or knife on you and take the cash.
$1500 canadian is dirt cheap which makes me suspicious. That's like $1250 US or so

Then take your own gun and when they pull that shit, jack em for the guitar. Only way these cocksuckers will learn...

It appears to be real in my opinion but I'd definitely want to see more pics

They probably don't even have the guitar. Just use pic to lure someone in.

Then you shoot them and take their money/drugs/ass, whatever they got.

In Montreal?
The worse that could happen is they will want you to share your Poutine with them.

Back of the headstock looks legit but you can't really tell what shape the rest of the body is . If it's legit and not in dire shape it should sell fast at $1,500 .00

I bought a brand new 1990 Les Paul standard for $800.00 from a Sam Ash store but I'm not sure how much a gold top would cost new in 2003 . At least what he's asking for I would think . Some people don't mind selling something for below what others will pay for it IF they could get what they originally paid for it back.
