The seller has a score of 2 and the other tag he sold recently if you read the details are very suspect and he states quite often that (he) paid, (he) had it serviced etc...

Id be suspect and not bother with it, I cant say for certain if its the real deal its hard to tell.


I do know one thing that has been tried and true---  YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR

In this case you won't even get what you pay for, that is not just a fake but a bad canal street fake...

the decent tag reps you would be hard pressed to tell from the real ones... not really because the reps are so good but because the tags are such crap that the reps are often better quality... subtlelaugh.gif

oh geeze did I type that .. I thought I was just thinking it... my bad...

It's over $400.00 did someone report this as a fake yet?

Funny the other watch they are selling looks just like the one they already sold.:shock:

What are the odds of this person having two of the exact same watch? The description sonds like a private seller and not a dealer.

just my 2 cents.

I don't do buss. with anyone under at least 35-40 sales. You need some sort of feedback to even try to get a feel of the person or buss.

You can contact the buyer(assuming this was not a private auction). Go to the history of your bids and click on the winning buyers name at the bottom, it will send to his/her ebay email address.

I've did this once or twice myself, both buyers were very appreciative.

Congrats on dodging that bullet.
