rolex daytona scam

watchout guys, i have been watching these so called white gold daytona's over the last year. They are listed on australian ebay every few months, not constantly, i saved the photos to my computer last time he got 10K+, the same photos as a few months earlier but i was not sure so last time i saved them, this is three times now and always a new zero feedback seller, same scammer running this every few months and pocketing 10k or so, watch out lots of reports to ebay please, attached are the photos i have on computer saved from 3 months ago approx, compare them with ebay listing

Also there seems to 0 feed backs listing rare complicates pieces from Ulysses nardin, hublot and the like. Wonder why so many?

eBay are irresponsible in letting new sellers with no feedback list high value items. I understand why it would be hard for them to do otherwise: the nature of an auction is that you don't know the price it will achieve. They could contact any new seller that has a first item over xthousand to check they ate legitimate...

sorry, for my education... how did you detect this is a fake daytona, or are you saying that the guy collects $ but doesn't send the watch?

Great work. I think eBay should find ways to gatekeep certain categories. And flag PayPal banking.
