Protecting your expensive watch, and flaunting your riches
Blink Blink.
His replies on Ebay, one of funniest thing I have read in a long time.He must be a chip of the old block.

I couldn't resist contacting this seller as follows -
"Hi - I am in UK and was thinking of putting in a bid of a couple of dollars for this amazing watch. On reflection I have decided not to do this, because I realise it would leave you out of pocket if I won the watch, and you had to ship it to UK at no cost to me.

I hope you understand why I will not be bidding for this interesting watch, but I do so only out of concern for your you and your pocket."

Here is his wonderful reply (sorry about caps - that is how he sent it!) -
