RSC purchased bracelet from me on ebay!

I had to do a double take but I guess even RSC uses ebay as a source for parts. Who knew?

It's pretty self explanatory.

I recognize the address as well. It's my local RSC.

It's not that surprising if you think about it. They purchased 14K oval Jubilee links. I estimate the bracelet to be from the 50s- 60s. I'm sure it's slim pickings when you're in a bind and need some ASAP.

and the charge to the consumer whose watch is being serviced will be triple the price.

Obviously Rolex trusts fleabay..... even if TRF does not generally. Funny many people mock ebay, but I have sold many of my watches there, even bought one once (and it was genuine, even it was not keeping good time).

Interesting, I wonder if Rolex is buying up bands etc. They do not want parts on the market

That would suck to get a PayPal charge back on that one.

Yes, amusing..

That's what they did with a well known Rolex Internet seller (that rhymes with Bellnose) who used counterfeit parts claiming they were authentic, building up a case to shut them down..
