Feedback help needed on wristking11

Hi folks,
I am about to close on a deal with wristking11 and wondering if you can help. I see that 'eugeinus' posted the same question in the Who's Who selling section two days ago, but nobody responded except for himself to say he thought it might be a scam because his two references, one was listed as a scam.

Do the moderators look at things like this and then remove people if they are found not to be legitimate, I'm just hesitant about proceeding. I obviously will not send money until it resolved, but could use some guidance please. As always, thanks.

If you have any doubts then move on to a seller with feedback.

I settled on a price but backed out because I could not verify him, and when he gave me name and address and I googled him nothing came up. Then nothing on Linked In or FB. I passed on the deal.

Smart.
The price of his listing sure is attractive, however you are buying a Rolex.
Go with a trusted seller

There are many well known sellers here on TRF with great references who can typically source any watch you want at competitive prices. Aside from buying at the AD, why look to unknown sources to make high dollar purchases like a Rolex

He accepted my offer for his Rolex Submariner Hulk but he didn't follow through with his part when I ask for photo of the watch and warranty card. I even email him my personal cell phone but he didn't reply back to email or phone. May be I dodge a bullet?

A reply like this really doesn't increase your credentials as a seller!

Nothing is weird about my post, I am a buyer doing my due diligence on big item purchase. Wristking11 finally replied to my email after I posted this comment with some harsh words but I am being respectful and give him benefit of doubt for now. I re-sent him an email with personal cell phone number waiting for his respond. I am a serious buyer not a faker, I just want the community to aware of the situation.

You're still considering dealing with him?

Actually at this point I am no longer interested, again he disappeared when I ask him text the pictures I requested to my cell phone. He sent me an email sound very mad about what I posted here yesterday, I was being apologetic because I thought he could be busy with work and personal matters, I even came back to this forum and openly apologize for my previous comment. He could make things right this morning by sending me the info I asked, he chose to ignore or disappear again. Oh well, I am over it.
