That being said, I have been a kind of a middle-man more or less from the get go on this whole mess, and have talked to William as well as ronnanol from the time William sent the money (as I found out he is a member of the same Norwegian forum as me) And William is right, ronnanol wasn`t super quick to reply to his e-mails, but he did reply quite quickly to my PM´s. And from what I can remember, it was aprox three days from the money was sent by William until he replied back, and then two more days before the package was shipped. There is a 6h time difference between Norway and the states, but I for one would make it my number one priority to send the watch as soon as I possibly could, at least when there is this amount of $$ involved. And also kept the correspondence the whole time.

With this being said, from what I can tell from the PM´s sent to me from ronnanol, I for one don´t think he has tried to scam William. Rather I think, as several others here suggests, that there is a A-hole somewhere in the postal service wearing a PAM instead of the crappy watch William received. Hammerfjord/William makes a good point imo regarding the fact that there is a difference with the package ronnanol sent, and the package William received. Why would a scam artist even send anything? And not just collect the money, and go underground?
And, for what it´s worth William, what´s in your best interest here is to try to solve this whole ordeal with ronnanol, and maybe even get your money back, at least some of it (fingers crossed that the claim ronnanol is making is approved) And I´m just trying to look out for you here brotha, hope you know that.
But again, I don´t think he´s scamming you, rather than both of you have been had here.
I will do whatever you want IOT help here buddy, and I´m continuing to PM ronnanol (and he´s replying) And last I asked if he would consider calling you so that you could talk this over, and see what can be done. But I think this may be a bit counterproductive continuing to call him a scam artist until things are in the open. Just my 2 cents ...

But I feel for you BIG time here buddy, and hope there is some light in the end of the tunnel somewhere.

Thank you Rolf &William for all the help so-far.

For now I will stop replying to the thread @ WUS & here until he gives me some proof/or acts like he cares.

If this becomes my fault @ all, I WILL post an apology publicly.& ask for the threads to be erased entirely.

I'm sick w/ this entire experience & I'm shutn my eyes for a few, not alot of sleep last night.

Oh man William...this has become quite serious indeed...I would contact the "second" purchaser of the 312, and then make your case. If this is indeed as it appears, then this is definitely a criminal case and should be taken to the next level.

....period....

He also tried a reversed fraud pretending to been scammed... (funny and sad at the same time...)

Hope it works out. I know who I would believe in this mess.

Good luck William

William, unfortunately this is looking more and more like you were right from the start. And that Ronny Olsen aka ronnanol is in fact a lying piece of scamming s..t! Really, how much "proof" do we need here? I have made conclusions based on much less before ...That turned out to be right.

I feel extra bad that I actually believed him in his PM´s and that he kept me believing that he in fact was trying to find a solution to this.
Now there are WAY to many coincidences her to look away from. And in addition to you links I have learnt that he has sold the same Breitling mentioned on Breitlingsource also on a Norwegian equivalent of ebay. He really is a big A-hole!!!

He is a member on an Norwegian watch forum also (the one we have) and this is also a BIG thread over here in our forum. The consencus have been more or less exactly the same as here on 3T, until now. Two Norwegian forum members have their watches in the mail to Ronny Olsen as we speak, and have made arrangements to trade watches. And we are talking yet another PAM and an IWC here, so not small sums here.

Sorry to say William ,but you were right. This is a scam, and you are probably out all your money. I for one will do what I can to make his life as hard as possible, because this will not just fly in my book. And that is the feeling most others have on the Norwegian forum also. So he is burned now, only to late.

And here is the culprit ...
http://nb-no.facebook.com/people/Ronny-Olsen/570696352

I am completely agreeing that we should not hang people out to dry before guilt has been confirmed. But in this case I really feel that there is more than enough evidence, and also he has not replied to any of my PM´s since this whole thing took a turn for the bad for him. Neither has he made ANY comments on the thread about this and him on the Norwegian forum, and I can see that he has been active there several times since last night. As it looks he has now stolen Williams hard earned $5700, gotten another $1500 from a Norwegian forum member as long as his PAM in a trade, AND he has an IWC Aquatimer incoming, also in a trade with a Norwegian forum member (And just a wild guess, but don´t think the watches he has promised to send in return for the trades are gonna show up.
Norway is a small country, and the watch enthusiast community minimal, so he will not be able to get away with this. Can´t really believe that he thought it would work in the first place???

Hers some more info on thid dude, it's him running a scam w/ a brietling & now Will said he sold the watch he supposedly didnt have 6 months ago on the Norweigon forum

Hello William,

Just to add some info. Here is the initial thread on TZ

[font="Arial, Helvetica" _yuid="yui_3_1_1_2_1326549565998118"][font=""]http://www.tz-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=139397&st=0&sk=t&sd=a

I am not involved in any of it. Just remembered the thread. He basicly cut a hole in the box and took out the watch. Recorded a video where he opens it and pretends to be scammed. My guess is that he tried to keep the watch and then claim the money back from Paypal. I have no clue if he was successful but that was probably the plan. Check the video at 0.31min in and you will see the white paper he put over the hole in the package where he sneaked out the content before recording..

I do hope everything works out for you. These kind of people are the scum on earth :(

Take care

Best,
Per
