Ok guys, I purchased a gen Rolex oyster on the bay. The seller had a "make offer" option on his ad, i made him an offer and he accepted. He claims that the watch has shipped and sent me a picture of the receipt that is totally unlegible. I asked him for a legible copy or the tracking number. He said there was no tracking number provided and not to worry....now won't respond at all. The seller does have over 200 positive feedback a and zero negative.

here is my question for fun.....will I receive the watch this week?

Ya, and if you don't, take it up with PayPal. . You should be fine.

You've been trolling the Bay for a GEN for a while...no?

And who in the hell ships a GEN Rolex without tracking?


:bless: Good luck my son...

200 positive feedback for what? If all for buying $2 items you are screwed, if for selling decent stuff then he's just an idiot and you will be fine.

Boss,
i tried to check and see what he had bought or sold but nothing recent. Also he has no other items for sale.

The sad thing is, I feel safer buying on a replica site than eBay.

Paypal will intervene if the unthinkable happens. Don't worry...

Just with particulars mentioned this deal is registering high on the Scam-O-Meter...Obviously not a very diligent seller but I sure hope it works out. Fingers crossed SJ.

I know some places either forget tracking, or don't give it...

This however sounds slightly sketchy. Only time will tell.
Chargeback if something goes wrong.
