Sold many times over the course of a couple week?..... Once in the UK now US... something is fishy

 

I wonder if the seller name is a bit of a warning... "hooklinensinker"

 

The same watch? Hopefully someone here has seen it as well ...

 

Strange ...

 

I've seen this on a UK listing too, I just can't find the link!

 

looks, feels like a scam
using inactive accounts
with rube description

 

I think so, I got stung by a new seller in S. America recently... Luckily, even though it was outside of eBay, paypal got me my money back after maybe 10 days... It was a bit of a sweat though...

 

Hi

This was listed for sale on here earlier on today....funnily enough gone now

Best - Neil

 

listed on where Neil?
our forum?

 

Hi

Yes , over in the ' Watches for Sale ' section....

Best - Neil

 

At least I can now let go of my regret for having missed that original BIN listing

I wonder if it was the same first time poster who was announcing in Watches for Sale they'll be "getting rid of their '62 Seamaster on eBay tomorrow". Also gone now.

Be careful out there!

 

I hope Dennis is keeping out a good eye on the "FS" section and not playing too much Candy Crush!

 

No, been busy with real world things after the brouhaha this morning. A few good games of Candy Crush sound nice right about now though. Thanks for the suggestion!

 

I contacted the seller to see if I can inspect the watch in person and if he is up for a FTF deal - the answer was no.
I then asked for pictures of the movement and he told me he was concerned about opening the watch, so no pictures.
So basically, no way to verify if the seller has the watch in his possession.....

 

Would he email you photo of the watch & current newspaper?

 

Although as someone else on this forum once said, another bus will be along in a minute...

 

Seems so. We've likely spent more time on this one ...

 

yea try that see what he says
out of curiosity. Bet he doesn't answer you.
Be very polite about it.

 

I asked for a picture of the watch next to something with today's date.
