Here are the masterpieces, complete with their ziplock bag.
Those 2 watches deserve to be thrown in together as well as stuffing the bag with sharp rocks!
Yeah I’d be annoyed too if I got that rubbish instead of what I paid for, but as has been said, it’s most likely a simple mistake, quite forgivable if rectified in a timely manner. Wait out the 3 days and then kick up a stink if nothing happens.

My solution to the gift conundrum…complete with the tan, red, and black straps. Now she will have a Dan Henry as well. 😀 (still no word from the seller from eBay.)

I sent the other person their part. I hope they send mine in return. Seller refunded me the postage. So far so good. If I do not get the part within reasonable time, I will have to submit a claim. Then continue waiting...

I learned a new word 'mooreffoc.' It comes from Dickens and it means to see something from a different perspective.

I submitted a claim and got the process started to get the seller to send me a return label to send the watches back and get my full refund. eBay was very helpful today.

This reminds me of the importance of videoing the opening of your packages.

Who would even buy those things?
You wear them when shooting your Tik Tok influencer videos...

Think you are missing an 'e' as in mooreeffoc....I.e. "coffee room" backwards

Of course you spoiled the fun.

Oh we really have fun with our day in the sun with the onomatopoetic palindrome toot tat tattarrattat tat toot.

Why else would I like enicar watches? Even if i do not have a race car, rob or bob?

edit: and I searche the site for onomatopoetia and found:

This is one of the reason why I always recorded myself unboxing the package when buying from eBay, it has saved me so many times.

Update: After the seller ghosted me for 5 days, eBay intervened and contacted the seller directly. I received an emailed return label for the two watches. Seller still hasn’t messaged me. eBay is going to refund if the seller doesn’t. Worked out this time.

The lack of response from the seller is troubling, was this 'error' on purpose?

Perhaps, perhaps not. He/she has been on eBay for 21 years and has 80 plus feedbacks this year. Maybe it was an honest mistake that they are ashamed to own, maybe something more nefarious. I’ll never know.

And my part is finally here. Looks like the right one. The other buyer forwarded on. I had already forwarded their part on. Had to wait an extra two weeks for this fiasco. At least I did not have to involve eBay. It was actually easy to do the swap as the package was addressed to me. Only the barcode labels were swapped which had the other recipiants address.

Of course I have enicars smeared all over the bench. I need to take down the Val-22 again. When it looked like it was going to be a long wait I assembled what I could.

hopefull @CBM1590 has a similar resolution.

I’ve got a return label sent. I’ll send the watches back and get a refund. So far, so good…

Similar experience.

I purchased a vintage Rolex 7206 bracelet for $3500 USD. Vendor sent me a $300 Omega bracelet.

Ghosted me for a few days so I opened up an EBay complaint.

The matter took weeks to resolve.

Put me off EBay forever.
