Ladies Rolex - Bored and entertaining

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...#ht_500wt_1182

Decided to ask some questions:
Do you have the original accessories (papers, box, etc.)
What is serial number?
Thank You
Do you accept wire transfer?

Response:
Yes I have the receipt, certificate, box (from
Tourneau) and serial number is VRX18850. I accept
Western Union but am not willing to do any bank
transfers due to the fact that I am not willing to
give out any personal banking information for my
safety.

More questions:
Would you accept Paypal?
Accept half up front and the remaining half in cash at AD

Awaiting response - first set of questions were responded to in just a few minutes.

Minutes later:
No offense but I don't want to get involved in any
sort of waiting game or half offers etc. and am
avoiding all sorts of frauds hence Western Union.
You can verify the serial number and purchase by
calling Tourneau in Natick, MA (508)653-8463
Sales slip # is 526854. I don't purchase/sell/own
any fake items. I don't believe in buying
bootlegs, my motto is if you can't afford it,
don't front and act like you can. I'm not offended
by your concerns but I'm also cautious myself due
to the potential fraud of this valuable item. If
you'd like different angles/pictures of the watch,
you can reply with your email.

Best Regards

Even from the poor quality picture the end pieces and date mag do NOT seem to be correct to me.

Avoiding all sorts of frauds etc, therefore only Western union.

OK.

Ad says he accepts PayPal so there's a violation right there. Report him for attempting to avoid PayPal fees.

Prodded. Who's next?

Pictures changed as I questioned the item:

Last response:
Don't worry I'm not arguing, I'm just a little bit
irritated because there aren't any more numbers to
give you. Perhaps you overlooked my initial reply:

"Yes I have the receipt, certificate, box (from
Tourneau) and serial number is VRX18850. I accept
Western Union but am not willing to do any bank
transfers due to the fact that I am not willing to
give out any personal banking information for my
safety."

If that's not the serial number, then it magically
must've disappeared from the certificate. It was
purchased on 12.15.2007.

I have no patience to answer any more certificate
questions. You can collect all of the data and
call up the store, mentioned in the previous
messages, trace the serial, case, every number. I
can't help you any more than buy telling you it's
authentic and will ship it out once the full
payment is cleared. Plain and simple.

I'm sorry but I won't be replying for another 8hrs
because I am literally going to bed now.

Best Regards

PS. (I am on Thai time because I've been revolving
my schedule around my boyfriend who just recently
moved there as a professional boxer and I will be
making the move in 2 weeks myself.)

I will respond to any more messages after I've
slept for 8hrs and I'm just letting you know ahead
of time so that you don't think I'm ignoring you.

Maybe I'm wrong but I do not believe that to be the Serial Number as I was questioning the authenticity. For a 2007 watch should it be possibly a "M"

I know that the tu-tone and the president my squaw own just have one (1) letter in the serial number. Three sounds way odd, besides the last time I bought a Tudor in Thailand it got caught up in customs for a month and cost me about $100 more in fees. The only thing the lady at customs said was "Thank goodness it wasn't a Rolex".

Seems a little suspect to me. That is not a serial number, funny how all these people have some sort of stupid reason why they can't do something "I'm on Thailand time", "moving house", "I work for 24 hours a day 7 days a week so meeting in person is not an option", "an AD might not authenticate it because I live in space and the warranty card is not filled out to my address because the post takes ages to get here".

Too eager to move the product without any flexibility. She's scared of getting caught out
