I'll agree with that one Michael!!!!

I have a feeling this one is going to be one tough nut to crack, Might have to have some seafood tomorrow to help work out the best plan :-)

Ps James safely arrived here today, can't wait for tomorrow

Hello my friend,
Thanks for the email but I think your very wrong about my watch, as case stamps vary to where the case was made, IE: USA Japan Europe Hong kong, or Mexico.

kind regards!

Well I've sent in four reports re this one.....

hopefully no one will BIN or make a best offer, as its not a straight auction it could be sold any tick of the clock and harder therefore to prevent the scam.

anyone??

OK I am watching. I don't care if a clown gets hustled by a clown; I know not to buy from clowns. eBay be clowns; not all but enough to be all clowns.

I have another trick up my sleeve on this one, give me 30 mins and see how this goes.

being still Easter there still may be a delay with lack of watching eyes on the reports.

Time to do some convincing

What about say a gold case that is very old and the number rubbed off. In some cases on these older cases the serials were etched back on to the case and in most cases it looks like crap.

Obviously I am now getting emails because I have not paid/contacted the seller, I'am giving it until tomorrow evening before responding and the first response will be to e b a y with a copy to the vendor.

I am just hoping that I will still have the option to leave some feedback and hopefully warn others of these scams because let me tell you it won't be pretty..........

The case here appears new, like it has never been worn, plus the stampings/fonts are incorrect. It is a counterfeit.
