This A 385 (case 516Dx61 for posterity), which SOLD by friendly-aaabayer in straight auction for USD 3800 in July 2013, appears for sale again....from friendly-aaabayer. http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-197...868568278?pt=Wristwatches&hash=item51b16578d6Purchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network It now has a wanker's reserve of USD 4824, USD 400 (about the price of bracelet + endpieces) above the record price of USD 4424 established by the one discussed here two weeks ago http://omegaforums.net/threads/zenith-a385.6976/#post-84595. What luck that the bidder in July decided not to take it! ....just outing another shill-using seller.
I guess we know why he uses private bidding and private feedback. $3800 was pretty stiff (I think you were right not to go that high, even before the shill part became clear), but not mad-hatter crazy. The price this time around is crazy.
I've bought it for a friend in July and wait 3 weeks the Bank account numbers for send money. No answer to my many emails and unpayed item in my account.... GREAT SELLER
That's a twist - don't like the sales price, don't give the buyer the means to pay. GIGI, you didn't consider using Paypal? He would not have had a choice then - it's all automated.
