Buyer was scammed on this auction
We try hard in this section to alert ebay, and it is their decision to remove an item. Which, as a result of bringing it to their attention, it was removed the first time.
UNFORTUNATELY, the seller relisted and the buyer received the fake watch! See post below. To all the folks in the Watchout section, great job in pointing these out!! Let's keep doing this to keep sellers from getting scammed! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...lenotsupported |

Of course I am still newcomer here but should the buyer be advised that they have just bought a fake watch for $1500? Or, let them find out on their own?

Look at the feedback of the seller. The buyer is reporting it!
Hopefully he used Ebay! If he did a deal outside of Ebay, he will be in trouble, specially if he paid over $1,500. If he did not use paypal, he will have a tough time recovering his funds! |

Thank god the buyer has enough knowledge to know its a fake. now this seller is probably going to start another account and off he goes again.
This is the sort of heartache I hate seeing, this is where eBay needs to put a black mark next to this sellers name for all to see, I certainly hope this poor buyer kicks up enough of a stink and the folks at eBay go through their records and see this was previously reported and removed and start to take a bit more care in allowing these scammers to relist. Sorry thats my Sunday morning rant for now just yanks my chain seeing this.

IMHO, buyer should be refunded by eBay. What are the chance of that?
