Hi guys,

I'm sticking with my hunch on this one that its a load of bogus and a trap, but I thought I'd ask to see if anyone has actually had a genuine deal with the seller / site.

He has feedback for sold items in the past, including the item I'm looking at. He is saying though he no longer sells via ebay or paypal, and will only sell via his website through card details. I cant see any legitimate reason why this is the case, but I don't understand how he has had positive feedback as it seems like a solid scam.

Any advice is appreciated!

It's Phong, and what he says is:

WE DO NOT ACCEPT PAYPAL


ONLY / VISA / MASTERCARD /


Meaning no PP on eBay, only bank/credit cards - he's not telling you to pay off eBay.

He has said here that if I was to pay (so with card) on eBay he would cancel it and I have to go to his site regardless. I have heard his name used, are him and his site safe to purchase from? I just want validation before I buy. [/

Thank you!

He's obviously had little shits raising PP disputes on eBay, so he won't accept that payment method anymore.

He can be trusted to send you the part you order.

Thanks again! Better news than I hoped to hear!

Last question as I was just googling away, I saw his site is jewelleryandwatch dot com? Would he have more than one site.

He has a son who also has a website, can't remember the name - but whatever site you order from you'll get the same products that he sells.

Jensen (Phong's son) got taken to court by Rolex and his site (Vintage Watchmaker LLC) got shut down.

And now he has another site and at least one account on eBay.
