    Interesting. It looks like the item is shipping from Lima, Peru, but the shipping service is described as having an origin location of China/Hong Kong/ Taiwan?

    Definitely a scam - he also has (or did have) other Ebay accounts. He has the same crap photos and lame descriptions using the same font and colors. I messaged him on WhatsApp after I won a speedmaster he was selling on a different account - he stated his PayPal doesn’t work with Ebay.

    I figured it was just because he was new and/or he was just trying to avoid fees. I ended up paying for the watch on PayPal through my credit card and received an empty envelope (8 grams) the day after Christmas ::censored::

    Luckily I have PayPal and my credit cards protection, but still a royal pain in the... it is not the first time nor likely the last I will get scammed in this hobby. Sometimes the best deals are just on the edge of fishy - but unfortunately most anything remotely close to fishy — is.

    Hope no one here is doing and FandF with this guy.
