Lange 1 for $103.50 Anyone?

Yeah, sure buddy, its real.....no, no.... I believe you.....

I think not.
In case anyone's browsing ebay, there's a RG Lange 1, complete with box and papers!!!!!!!! that's sitting at $105.30 at the moment.

Funnily enough, I would think that the average person wouldn't even know what a Lange 1 is, so it really makes me wonder what type of person is bidding on this POS.

But, what really cracks me up, the sellers name. Would you buy a watch from a guy who calls himself .....thug life ?

Nice one.
My favorite at the moment is this:

"You are bidding for Brand New Panerai Luminor Marina automatic wrist watch.

Stainless steel body.
Clear glass back.
Luminous numbers and hands.
Saphire glass.
Night / day window .
Additional small 24 hours face.
The movement of the pendulum is visable through the glass of the watch.
Yellow rubber wrist band.

High quality automatic asian movement"

And here's the best bit, the price $199

Yeah I've seen them too. I notified ebay for a couple of em, but they kept reappearing. Dunces.

On one hand, I'm dead against this practice & despise fakes...BUT.... if people knowingly buy them, well... a fool and his money are soon parted, as they say, and the fool deserves it IMO.

Yes but then you've got the high quality Swiss movement (and a real watch).
