MOAB,
Accusatory? maybe, but my take is different.
superlative said:
"Perhaps the buyer of a rep on eBay should inform himself of the watches authenticity. Also, eBay and PayPal have policies to protect the buyer. Why make it your modus operandi?"
I'm sorry? I'm all for "Caveat Emptor" and all,
but perhaps the OP overestimates the intellegence and expertese of many ebay buyers.(most have no conception of how good reps can be, and why should they,their supposed to be buying a gen)
The OP basically stated it's OK to sell reps on ebay as gens(if you can get away with it) and it is the buyers fault if he is screwed(despite PP/ebay hopefully riding to the rescue,but only if the buyer figures out it is a rep in time), and we should look the other way and do nothing despite knowing it is a rep?
You are OK with this view ?(I know you are not)
But it seems the OP is OK with it.( and he wonders about our ethics?)
I wonder about his.
