llsteve80 Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 I was doing my usual searching today and noticed that there just isn't sh** on there lately. Whats going on with that? Search 6263 and all you come up with is a bunch of t-shirts and books. Same with 1665, etc. It looks like some stuff I was watching disappeared too.... I'm pretty sure that a search for just "rolex" would show about 12k listings, but now 4700? What gives? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
llsteve80 Posted January 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 Oh, and all the scams are still there.... 220188365971 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jb Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 I use alternate methods to sell my stuff now that they have added the end value fees. Not only do they hit you for the listing, and Paypal in most cases, but I think it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victoria Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 I'm pretty sure that a search for just "rolex" would show about 12k listings, but now 4700? What gives? What I'd like to know, is how can people sell watches with photos like this? This Tiffany's watch ACTUALLY SOLD TOO. Mind-boggling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triplehd Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 What I'd like to know, is how can people sell watches with photos like this? This Tiffany's watch ACTUALLY SOLD TOO. Mind-boggling. That;s because they never signed up here and read Pug's Tutorials on Photography. Damn non-suporters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
llsteve80 Posted January 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 Hmm it appears as if a lot of aftermarket parts, etc are gone. Maybe GAF has been cracking down lately. @JB- I would also like to know where you sell your stuff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jb Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 First, I'm not talking about selling reps. I am referring to general goods that would typically be found on eBay. Mostly, I try to use Craig's List and sell locally 1st. Also, there are several free classified website available on the new, which can be found via Google. I have tried usfreeads.com twice, one sold and one didn't. Unfortunately, most of these sites are for US based transactions. I also belong to some other forums, which are not watch related, that allow sales of items that do not pertain to the topic of the forum. D4M and I go back and forth all the time about adding a section like this to RWC or even RWI (sorry if that is unacceptable). I am for it, he is not. If these options fail, I will then post my item on eBay, but I hate doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next time you go on Ebay, try searching for 1665 and click the "items and descriptions" button that way you search the title and the description for that term. Some might not put it in the title. this is what I got when I did that----------> 1665 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some might not put it in the title. this is what I got when I did that----------> 1665 I do that too, just in case. It just seems like there is about 1/2 of what used to be on there a month ago. However, anyone crazy enough not to put the most search able word in their title is an idiot and I don't know if I would trust them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
