Imho...

Since many of these guys are a looong way from where most of us live while using fake names etc, they can screw with us at their leisure if it is in their nature and we can not retaliate.

Besides that, my guess is many of them do not even have what they advertise for sale and do not start hunting for the item until after they get the $$.  Anyone can set up a website with a few pictures of cases, dials etc and sell from the site with zero stock.

I knew a guy that 'knew a guy' that could find anything you wanted in replicas and he did not know anything about replicas.  He just 'knew a guy'.  I suspect many of the replica watches/parts vendors are like this.

Otoh, a few are probably skilled 'detailers' or 'know a guy' who is and they buy $35 cases and turn them into $650 cases.  In their spare time they look through a few dozen $20 dials to pick out two or three '$250' dials. 

 

Example...

In 2005 or 2006 I asked 'a guy' to get some submariner dials for Eta movements.  He wrote back in a few days and asked  "How many?  They are $10USD each."  Probably $20 by now.
