    Maybe someone here could use some parts. I think this watch covers half a dozen refs.

    Now I see he has a 2998-2 for sale. With a link to some other direct ebay looking page. Does anyone know anything about this seller or the sale? I'm getting a really bad feeling about that item, but it looks a little too good.
    Ah, so it could be a hacked account. Whatever it is, probably best to stay far, far from sending any money for any of his watches.

    That ebay account is hacked I would say. Leads you to an outside link to "pay them". It's on all their listings.

    It's a pretty well done scam if you ask me. I have blurred out the full link and it isn't clickable, just an image. The link actually looks like an ebay link, but it adds an extra string on the domain. I hope people don't fall for it, but the old saying of "If it's too good to be true" applies here.

    Ya! :thumbsup:

    I think I heard at least part of it in 1977 [or 1978] during a K-tel TV commercial offering country [and western] compilations on albums, 8-tracks and cassettes. :thumbsup:
