Email conversation to the seller of "Mint* Stainless Steel Rolex Daytona Cosmograph "

I think he is stump on deciding series of the watch, clearly it is a late Z or M with fat hands.

I like the part he saying that I will be covered by Paypal protection plan. $200 was stated on Ebay, he wants $2000.00

Here it is enjoy...

************************************************** ***
20% deposit is reasonable...

After looking at the watch again...I think it is a F series. Could you confirmed?

Ya that would be fine, but I was wondering if you could make a down payment on paypal or somthing first if thats alright with you. I need some money in my paypal to pay for some stuff I want to purchase and also I don't want to get back from my trip after taking my auction down and hereing that you found a different one, you know what I mean. I just want some kind of garantee, like $2000 in paypal, that way your fully covered by paypals protection plan also. Just seeing what you think about that. Also I live in the Worcester area. Where abouts half way would you want to meet.

Sorry I can't do that unfortunately. As I said in my auction I left on my business trip this morning and won't be back for 10 days.

Thank Chris...appreciated your effort ending the auction early.

I will be paying cash, my brother in-law live in Boston, how about we have him setup a time with you tomorrow to meet at a local jeweler store for the transaction. Of course the watch will be look over, not taking apart or anything like that, just visual inspection.

Get back with me.

Thanks,

Tim

Ya I would deffinately end it early for 9K. I didn't think I would even be able to sell it without the box and papers on ebay. Would you be paying through bank transfer or paypal.

Hi Chris,

That is a beautiful watch, I have been looking for one for a year now...box and paper don't matter because I am not planing having it resell.

Anyway, would you end the auction early for $9K?

Let me know asap so this one doesn't slip away...

Oh, watch look like either a Z or M series, right?

Thanks.

I love the comment that it does not fit his lifestyle. Yup; it's kind of hard hanging around all of the other skid row winos in winoville with a $12,000 Rolex on your wrist.

The stories keep getting better and better.

Wait don't make a payment as an ebay item because then i have to pay for the ebay fees as well as paypal fees. Mark it as a cash advance or a good.

I know how paypal can be sometimes. You just got to work around all of it haha.

Great.

Paypal, they are being a "di*k" in order to qualify for the protection plan they want the serial number of the watch...

Could you send that to me please.

Thanks,

Tim

Chris - you don't have the watch. You don't know about the watch. All you think you know about is ripping off people. You have been documented and reported. Worst of all, you are sloppy. Have a nice trip.

here is his latest explanation.

"Ok Tim you want to know the 100% truth, no lies. Its called dropshipping. The watch is real not one of those shit japanese movements from china, or one of those scams from one of those 1000 replica scam sites. What I do is you pay me for the watch, and then I buy the watch with that money and send it to you. Thats the 10 day business trip. Its a real watch and I garantee it. I'm not one of those scum bag ebayers who rips people off. I am more than happy to give you a 100% refund if its not real. I'm not stupid enough to sell fake watches that any jeweler can tell so I can get my ass sued by some company. I respect what your doing getting rid of the pretty much 75% of fake products on ebay, but I don't appreciate the emails on the forum."

WOW. Won't he be surprised when I report him to my E-Bay contact for the harassing E-Mails and he finds his account closed. Don't appreciate the e-mails huh. But we can string people along with the; "It doesn't fit my lifestyle any more" routine.
