Selling Rolex papers

These came up on my eBay feed. I am thinking something like this just opens the doors for scammers. Is this practice ok or frowned upon?

I'm not sure, but I think this used to be against the Ebay rules at one time. Selling papers, boxes, warranty cards, etc., used to be verboten. I guess the rules have changed in favor of the scammers.

Not a real card either. Same guy has a fake YG Sky Dweller for sale as well.

You don't want to buy from an ad in Australia. They don't have what you want. Also an ad will not have that sweet sweet Pepsi ;)

Why would someone buy a warranty document if it is not for a scam??

Not sure, but I'd think there's a legitimate market for such items including boxes, papers, hang tags, and all the various and often discarded accouterments you can think of. I suspect it attracts the OCD afflicted collector crowd looking to complete their own "set" and not just for scammers. It's even been joked that you could sell the peeled stickers at the right price to the right buyer on eBay!
