who elseout there is just a little bit disappointed when these get pulled before we get a chance to see them?

the important part is that it's pulled...

You know a couple of years ago I had a bid on an Ebay submariner...I'm embarrassed to say how high the bid was...but I was naiive and too trusting that ebay would weed out the fakes themselves...

anyway, I got an anonymous email warning me that I had bid on a fake...

I pulled out my bid and decided that I needed to learn more...and my watch passion was born...

I can't help but wonder if it was one of you guys....

you're doing a great service...keep it up guys

Remember the Fonz. I'm sssss; I'm sssoo; I'm sssooorrr; I'm sssooorrryyy. OK; there. I said it. I'm sorry.

I have this special relationship with E-Bay. I report....they pull. I am an Enhanced Member Reporter, which means they use me for free to do the dirty work of reporting watches and, my reports get special consideration and, the watches get pulled. In other words; I'm a chump.

I suppose I could hold out till the end of the day and let everyone slobber all over the fakes before I report them. I usually get up early and get my reports in before I get to work. Sometimes I look throughout the day depending on how busy I get at work and report a few others. I like to stay on top of them. Especially because the boys are hard at spotting them for me and I have to keep up or get overwhelmed with them. These guy's are so efficient.

You've got Stan (tudorman8276), John (Springer), Steve (Stevemulholland3), Orchi, Steve 2 (Pwrslider), (Frostie) Velitsko, ChrisTOPHer (toph), 2Careless (Kai), etc. Sorry if I missed someone.

These guy's are slave drivers. I gotta wonder if any of them sleep at night or they take turns in staying up all night looking up fakes. I get up in the morning and there are hundreds of them to report.

So at least we have done our good duty and helped our fellow man/woman from getting ripped off by one of the many scammers out there. My hats off and my most sincere thanks for the diligence of all of my partners without whom this important work would never be possible.

I salute my fellow decent human beings.
