Wonder if that's Nigeria, Michigan?

clew84 · 31 May 2009, 10:54 AM

I'm going to go out on a limb here and state that there's something a little off here. Either the watch is stolen/fake or it's a creative way for someone to sell a watch but the story is BS. And the reason I say that is that I have seen something like this before.

ippon20 · 31 May 2009, 10:59 AM

Funny, 0 feedback and is it me or does it seem weird that she describes the watch very little but one of the pics shows the use of the glidelock clasp? Also, the caseback looks a little off...the titanium doesn't look dark enough. I would stay away from that bad boy. If the story is true, I hope she realizes that since she owns it 50/50...her selling price would get split in court.

If it's too good to be true...

ijen0311 · 31 May 2009, 11:01 AM

hahaha

to her

she can't spell worth a lick, though

Mr. K · 31 May 2009, 11:26 AM

Uh yeah......no.

I'd stay very far away from this one.

Bisquitlips · 31 May 2009, 11:35 AM

Wouldn't touch it.

Z-Sub · 31 May 2009, 11:43 AM

Reading the description of this watch, it's very typical for a scammer to use a female alias and use divorce as a possible distractor.
The English used in the post reminds me of a scammer reported on WN and TRF. Stay away.

Watchdog · 31 May 2009, 11:50 AM

NO WAY would I go near this.

She might come after the buyer for a paternity test.

Bulltrapper · 31 May 2009, 12:20 PM

here's what happens, you're the high bidder, you send the watch and all of a sudden she sends you an email that the husband came home and took the watch and locked her out of their checking account. SCAM, SCAM, SCAM

Bulltrapper · 31 May 2009, 12:22 PM

sorry, meant to say you send the money, lol.

dcvelo · 31 May 2009, 12:22 PM

Stay away< definitely a scam!!!!!!

If you want to buy this watch from the Zero rated seller on Ebay, it far far better to give the money to a charity.

At least they will pray for you.

Did anyone read "her" Q & A section? Even if I thought the auction was legit, which I don't, this would most certainly have turned me off from bidding on this item:

"No what’s funny that you are emailing me for an item that you are not interested in! no money ten feedbacks like you are somebody your feedbacks indicate you have not spent over a thousand dollars on one item on eBay! Anybody with money would not waste there time emailing someone on an item that they are not interested in just to say they are not interested get a life better yet get some money!"

is it really?

I passed up on a brand new one (without papers) for $6400 last week. The guy got it, lost the papers and thought it was too big...

I blew that deal...ouch.

but still don't think this is such a crazy good deal even if true.

I would say this is not a happy marriage.

I have heard of similar things in the past. DO NOT go near this one. But hey, it's your money....

FreeView4You · 31 May 2009, 12:53 PM

anyone stupid enough to get scammed on that auction, deserves it.
