I've had 2 different occasions to look at watchnet, due to a good price. Both times I found out, the acct. was hijacked.

its missing a few links ($250 - $500 a piece), seems rough even after polish and may need a $1300 service too.

price isn't that off the mark.

needs more info from seller.

Agree, I sold one last month in much nicer condition with all links for $10,500.

true.

but this thread (here) was based on an asking price being the reason for fishyness. the asking price isn't the alarm imop.

your link is based on a much too low blnr price being a possible red flag -- which i agree with.

same seller, yes, but different issues... along with fake/stolen images.

this hobby is getting sketchy.

PM, especially yg models have a lot of wiggle room.

Going for and sold for are a big spread.

No I'm not, they go for more and they go for less.
