what's up with this TRF listing?

panerai pics seem to be taken from an ebay listing

can just anyone post sales here on TRF, or is there a vetting process (post threshold, sponsorship, etc.) in order to sell a watch?

As soon as you have enough posts anyone can start selling on TRF.

A seller can of course advertise his watch both here and on e-bay but in this case it doesn't seem to be the same seller.

This should be brought to mods attention!!

Post threshold - yes. That's what the 16/16 rule is for.

Sponsorship - No.

There is a moderator on the case in relation to this member as can be clearly seen in the thread.

There is relatively little concern that the watch offering is a fraudulent one though there are other issues to be dealt with in relation to this person.

noticed this yesterday as well, there was a previous member who appears to be gone now that was posting the same pics, hope the mods figure it out.
