Scammed by stargurl2468 on clasp

Well, the seller's username stargurl2468 should have been enough for me to shy away...but I got sucked in by the attractive 'Buy It Now' price...

A DeepSea Sea-Dweller glide-lock clasp for $500.00 Too good to be true right? Correct...

But they assured me that it was 'authentic' and so I pulled the trigger.

Here are the pictures side by side with my watches...

Can anyone spot the difference?

Now the seller is claiming that the clasp is real and I'm trying to rip HIM off by wanting a refund while wanting to keep this worthless piece of junk...amazing...and what an A#$hole

Yep, I'm totally kicking myself...all the warnings were there, but I ignored them...

Yep, absolutely Rob...mea culpa on this one!

But wanted this seller immortalized on this site so that others might not likewise get burned...

Seller's details are:

Joshua Doria
Jlhockey97@aol.com
Marlboro, NJ

he also goes under a female name of:

Krystina Farraye

Must be under the impression that people think a female is less likely to rip them off or something...

I hear you Ian, and sorry to hear of your plight into the world of false Rolex. (Ebay is ripe with it)

I thank you for notifying the membership however!

Can't find that seller on Ebay.com or Ebay.co.uk.
Which Ebay did you find the listing?

Edit: Holy necro-thread resurrection. I'm confused now.

Just file a claim to ebay and state its fake and not as described.
Ebay will insist you get a refund as soon as you return item.

You will get your money back and postage
