Hey guys,

I recently got scammed on eBay after buying what I thought was a real sub. As soon as I opened the package I knew it was fake. I filled a PayPal dispute and they need a unbiased third party to authenticate it. My AD won't do it. If there is anyone who can do this please PM me. I'll send images via PM as well. I'll be happy to compensate you for your time.

Regards
Zak

Seems to me you'll need to either go through an RSC or find an AD that will authenticate for paypal to take the findings seriously. Good luck...

Go to an AD and ask if it needs service. When they tell you it's fake ask for it in writing. Might work?

Go to a jeweler who works on Rolex watches. Tell them that you would like to have the watch authenticated (all parts including the inner movement). If it is NOT totally authentic have them write out a statement with details about what the issue is (totally fake, movement fake, bracelet...whatever).

Have that notarized and submit that to PayPal. Good luck with that!

I can't believe people are still crooking customers. I'm sorry to hear this

Sorry this happened the people here do a lot to get that crap off eBay. You could post the pictures here and in notice you'll have 100 people telling you what a pos it is. Do a screen cap of that and send to PayPal.

i think a good used rolex dealer would do this for you for a price, even a rolex qualified watchmaker may with a parts account

I'm surprised people are still buying Rolex on ebay. I'm sorry to hear about this.

Take it to the Rolex service center. When they refuse it, ask the nice lady at the quotation desk to write fake on the little green card and give you a copy of it. Of course, she may confiscate the watch.

If the watch is not authentic and enough people report it as a fake the listing will be removed and you will get a refund. You will get a message from eBay after the listing is removed telling you what to do.

As Stan (TudorMan8276) said, post the ebay link..
