Looking to buy a Rolex…why do sellers on here feel like scammers?

My question is more involving the frequency of scam ads.

I enjoy looking over the for sale ads…but are they mostly from scammers?

I realize there are trusted sellers, they are not hard to identify.

I’m obviously going to look at things a bit different moving forward.

When searching for a bargain, you get what you get. I’ve bought and sold as a hobbyist here for almost a decade and never had an issue. It’s your picker bud.

Hang on… what?

It seems more the case that you don’t really understand how to pick a trustworthy seller. Hint: It’s best not to prioritise your search based on watches being offered at “seems too good to be true” low prices.

Fingers crossed you’ve had enough advice now to make better choices in the future.
