asciwhite Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 There is always some that will try to scam to get money. With the quality of the reps these days. Scammers have dollar signs in their eyes! My guilt would kill me if I tried something like this, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend Posted January 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 I messaged the seller and requested him to remove the listing, but he insisted its real with papers and that it can be authenticated by AP lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend Posted January 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 What makes this a rep? I'm asking because I'm not a huge AP guy. note the larger base of the hands, position of the date window on the dial, the alignment of the crown and pushers, and the pinholes on the deployant clasp. The watch is also photographed in such a manner so that these details are not immediately visible, but must be scrutinised by zooming in. Whoever buys this would regret it.

LOL, maybe he got scammed and he had to pass the scam on to someone else. Lets say the buyer buys it, they are able to report that it is a rep and get their money back anyways right?

Its still not ethical to pass on a scam. Benefit of doubt has been given to seller based on his reply, but he has been cautioned that its a replica, and it has to be taken off eBay. The item is still listed there mate. So if you can spare a little time, help report it too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
