116710BLNR Too good to be true?
I came across this batman with an amazing price.
http://forums.watchnet.com/index.php...o=844076&rid=0 It is an amazing price and it all seems a bit too good to be true. I searched and found nothing at all on the seller. Absolutely zero internet history makes me a bit worried. |

Some friendly advice.
Buyers who are looking for a good deal but have not researched how scams work are the ideal target for scammers. |

If it looks too good to be true ,it is too good to be true and not good.
Buy from a trusted seller and stay away. |

Just because it may be a legit watch in the pics, doesnt mean you will receive what is in the pic

Why is the warranty card expired? Shouldn't it be 5 years with a green tag?

Asked the guy to send me a photo of the watch in front of a screenshot of my email and he said "its in my safe deposit box". Asked for a face-to-face transaction. Response is "sorry don't ever have time away from work". All total scam signs!
