Yes, Just saw that. You would think that for an asking price of >17,000$ he would have bothered to take decent pictures......

 

Excuse the quality of pics, taken with his worst vintage camera/lens...

 

At least its come down...

I don't understand sellers like this. Don't make the effort to see what their item is worth. Make no effort listing it for sale. I guess, as they say, you can't argue with crazy.

 

I find it ironic that he watermarks his photos. As if anyone would want to use them!

Anyway, I've sent him an email to ask for better pics. Maybe there IS a $17000 watch hiding in those photos after all... A very special watch that distorts space and time, making it inordinately difficult to photograph, perhaps? Like the one in "The Girl, The Gold Watch, and Everything"?

 

Maybe owned by Winston Churchill? Can't think of many other reasons to ask that price

 

Please post his response when you get it

 

There's a blast from the past, I enjoyed reading that as a 16 year old.

 

FAIL, on so many levels.

 

I think you guys are being too harsh on the seller. Clearly he only has a milk bottle available to take photos with. In the circumstances I think he's done quite well, I can actually make out that it is a watch.

 

Jeez, this watch might be a bargain at that price. It could contain a world war II treasure map.......That's why he had to distort the picture so only the buyer could get the clear map.

 

He might be half blind and his pics are clear to him.

 

It looks over polished to me...

 

Snapping photo,s whilst shivering, -17 in Winnipeg. needs to sell to pay for heater

 

I liked the movie, but then again I was biased as I had a crush on Pam Dawber then...
