I know Michigan is pretty impoverished these days so I can understand the desperation to steal, but since nobody in the area has any money, who would they find to buy it? I guess you don't have to be too smart to be a criminal.

Maybe not, but I imagine someone might sell a '78 Paul to someone privately over ye olde 'net.
