...as an auction

See where it ends, and yes, that is a sign of where the market is heading

Serious bidders won't get involved until the last minute (or seconds) before the auction ends - the winning bid will be substantially more than $8k.

But the seller will have to pay $750 ebay final value fee + another 2.9% to PayPal.

Although only one data point, this particularly watch's selling price will be very interesting.

I put in a bid, it already went above my bid and is at 10k

Those Ebay and PP fees are killers when it comes to high ticket purchases- normally around 13% for non auction items

Most of the people selling Rolex on ebay are likely going to have anchor store subscriptions. This caps the final value fee (FVF) at $300. So their fees will come out much much lower than 13%.

piratepress · 7 April 2020, 02:31 AM

Well, that escalated quickly! From no bids to $9,300 in one hour.

MillyS · 7 April 2020, 02:33 AM

its at $10k with 22 hours to go - curious to see where it ends.

johnorpheus · 7 April 2020, 02:34 AM

Are we gonna get a separate thread for every piece listed anywhere now?

piratepress · 7 April 2020, 02:37 AM

Maybe I should buy it so I can earn $100 in EBay Bucks!!!

RHIII · 7 April 2020, 02:37 AM

Why even post this? eBay is a complete game. They know what they ‘want’ and when it doesn’t get there. They cancel the listing. Period.

Yeah, ebay fee is 10% of final value, capped at $750 or $250 if you have a "store".

You're only supposed to be able to end one auction early per year and receive forgiveness. At more than once per year doing this, the seller is responsible for paying the final value fee based on the max bid for the item at the time the auction was pulled.

Interesting, I didn’t know that. Is this a new rule or has it been in place for awhile now?

And all you have to do is have someone else (or a few people) raise the price continually - if it got too close to the edge. There are ALL kinds of ways people get around this. Which is why I don’t use eBay.

Yay!!! Just what the forum needs, another pricing speculation thread. Next please.

Podmornica · 7 April 2020, 02:51 AM

That's the exact same watch sold for $15,500 plus shipping at watchuseek ..

https://forums.watchuseek.com/f29/fs...o-5156781.html

Always nervous with those short closing eBay auctions lasting no more than a day in total .. Could be that the seller is really in hurry for money or just a hacked profile and a hassle to get your money back for the next 20 days ..

Meant selling .. It's the same watch both on ebay and watchuseek ..

fooey · 7 April 2020, 03:15 AM

in the UK we get a lot of offers from Ebay,
£1 final valuation fee!
comes around about once every 2-3 months

Hollie_Rollie · 7 April 2020, 03:48 AM

I haven’t seen these for sale in awhile... definitely produced in limited quantity and surely are rare

faimag · 7 April 2020, 04:28 AM

it's 12.5K now with 20 hours to go...

kneedeep · 7 April 2020, 04:41 AM

and do we think that 1 random ebay listing even if it completes, 1 data point, is going to set a market price for one of the most popular watches in the world?

tkc324 · 7 April 2020, 04:45 AM

12.5k now

IAN1 · 7 April 2020, 04:46 AM

Don't worry, the seller will salt the hat and make sure he doesn't lose it for anything under market value.
