This is a little scary

Just be careful when buying from someone you don’t know. Blank certificate of origin on eBay.

you can find blank Rolex warranty cards out there too. I posted some i saw for sale on IG a while back.

You order it and they type whatever serial and reference number on the front you want. and stamp the back

IMO, EBay should NEVER sell items that could be used to deceive or misrepresent an item. Blank warranty cards, certificate of origin, sales receipts, etc., should be included in the list of banned items for sale. These items serve no purpose other than fraud.

i have seen them advertised as "substitute cards if you lost your original" implying its for legitimate owners who want a card with the watches details of their authentic watch.

But yes i agree 99.9% of people who would buy such a product is going to use it to misrepresent something as real that isn't
