Has anyone tried to sell a Rolex on Ebay? If so what has been your experience?

Great to know. I have a very nice watch purchased new in February that I may be looking to sell, so I am weighing all options.

eBay kills you on listing fees, final sales fees, and especially paypal fees

Sorry, internet slang. I thought everyone used it now. Pwns, Owns, Pees on, is vastly superiour to. I think sums it up.

I will remind you guys only once the Rolex watch forum is not to used as a for-sale forum or offering watches for sale etc.

I would recommend a sale here as well, there are a lot of scammer buyers on ebay.

Thanks you so much for your input. I have never attempted to sell such a valuable item before, and the process is a bit daunting. I am glad to have found this forum:)
