    Dear all.

    Is there a helpful member on these boards in Italy? I have pressed "Buy it Now" on an eBay, not registering - until afterwards - that the seller didn't ship outside of Italy... I have written to him, but if he doesn't want to ship outside of the country, I could really use a domestic address :confused:

    Best,
    Troels.

    Never mind - seller has graciously accepted to ship to Denmark - I guess having someone pressing BIN without the least bit of haggling (a first for me...), was a sign that I was a willing buyer :D

    Looking forward to showing off this little gem. Even though it will mean that I have to sell of a few pieces now ::facepalm2::

    I saw (some of) your collection last week and have alway found it a bit odd that people collect a number of near indistinguable watches in numbers...

    Well... :whistling:

    The seller just refunded me... Says her father sold the watch elsewhere and is extremely sorry.


    It better not be one of you guys! :p / :mad:

    Rats. I was hoping for an Incoming Twenty Questions thread. We haven't had one in a while. :(

    I'm bloody livid right now... Didn't think I'd get hit by someone topping my bid after the purchase (which I'm guessing is what happened...).

    Would have loved to do a Twenty Questions, but unfortunately @Tony C. already called it - a Certina DS Diver. In very, very nice condition, too. I better not see someone flaunting it on IG one of these days. I'll hunt him down and go Taken on his sorry ass.

    Well, I'll probably grumble and whine a bit.

    Sorry, to hear that Troels. If I see one, i’ll let you know.
    On the positive side, I find that going “medieval” on someone in your imagination can be quite therapeutic from time to time. Unhealthy if it takes up every waking hour of course!

    How frustrating is that, to hear the seller sold it elsewhere ::facepalm1::

    Find’em ! :whipped:

    Damn – that really sucks. I wish that eBay would ban sellers who pull that crap.

    Probably the best I've seen for sale yet. At a very, very good price too.
