Dodgy seller?

I'm new to the forum, first post.

Does anyone recognise any of the photos on eBay posted by seller:vilna2011?
The Explorer II photos are very much in the style of Mark Lerman (comexfan). The 3 watches he has listed are all photographed very differently.

Any thoughts? I'd be interested in one of these but it looks a little fishy at the moment.

Don't take my word for it but - It don't look right.

Some other people will be along soon I'm sure.

You're going to love it here.

All good chaps and chapesses with VERY sharp eyes for a scam.

Ask for a photo of the one you like set to a certain time and date on a piece of paper with your name written on it. If he has the watch he will do it.

could be wrong but it looks like a set up, maybe someones trying to make it appear like a Comexfan listing, the photos certainly look a similar style, as too the phrases used in the description but, that said i smell a rat (maybe a Beever)....this whole thing has become a witch hunt

After Five days...

I've received no response from the seller to multiple questions on all items. Buyer Beware.
