Ebay seller "Estate Finds"

Do you all think this is legit? I'm very apprehensive. Seller says he "just came across these 7 Rolex with boxes and papers."

I thought about reporting, but wanted it reviewed by the more knowledgeable members here first.

PLEASE report the guy. I noticed he says in the fine print that there's no guarantee they are real. What a POS. Who 'comes across' 7 rolexes in their boxes and doesn't check them out so he can sell for top dollar? He knows they are fake and has his fat fingers crossed.

Edit: I reported him on all of his listings for no other reason than he broke ebay's rules by providing disclaimers that he's not guaranteeing they are real. If I knew more how to ID fakes I would have flagged him for counterfeits but it's all the same...those listings will almost certainly be taken down. Thanks for helping the community.

Won't hurt to get some pics. I for one would love to see these 7 watches with box and papers he came across.

I didn’t look at all of the ... maybe 3, and from the ones I saw they were clearly fake by a long mile

The OysterDate looks like it could be genuine.

The rest are pure junk.

I opened 4 at random, and they're low end fakes. If 4 are fake.......you can guess the rest.

I told him yesterday to take those listings down because they were replicas, here was his response, after I read it we reported them this morning,

“How can you tell they are replicas ? We bought them from a 16k sqft house yesterday all of them had boxes and some paperwork I have a Rolex I bought from a dealer where I live and they are identical. I will tell you what I put in the description I’m not a jeweler and can not authenticate anything. They were sold to us as the real deal along with the house and a lot of other lots they had it broken up into shotguns,cars and so on.”

I went ahead and reported a bunch of these items.

These weren't even hard to spot as fakes, especially with those cyclops that don't actually magnify anything haha.

What a joke, these aren't even good replicas, this is mostly just canal street type crap.

All of them have bids against them. This needs to be corrected before innocents get scammed. How does one "report" this to eBay?

Good job, guys. The listings are still up, though! https://www.ebay.com/sch/scotgilchri...p2047675.l2562

Edit: Just above the description on the far right there's a little "report item" button. Click on that and then follow through with copyright infringement and follow from there the obvious choices. Takes 30 seconds.
