Member "xxxtopmost" is a scammer

Hey,
no one purchase or deal with this member. They scammed me out of over 3000$ for a 69200 Jubilee bracelet.
said the bracelet was shipped, never sent a tracking number and refuses to, now claiming they need 200$ more so FedEx to deliver it tomorrow. Its bullshit, Im furious with myself for getting scammed.
dont fall into the same trap I did.

you live you learn i guess.

He tried to scam me also

Sorry to hear, but thank you for sharing. I was contacted by several scammers when I posted a WTB.

I believe I have a 69200 that I got quite a while ago, screw heads are all jacked up, and some are the wrong screws used (too short) but you’re welcome to it.

Also do you have any of this dudes details etc on how you paid or location?

I am bit tapped out on cash for the bracelet, so i will pass for now, but thank you.

I paid via paypal. He claimed he was in NJ, but then claimed the bracelet was coming from CA and his location on the forum stated London.

his email was "pbestec@yahoo.com" and he gave this as the PayPal address "ashywhale@yahoo.com"

Why would you pay $3000 for a 69200 bracelet? They can't be much more than $2000 from an RSC?

I wasn’t offering to sell it brother. If you need it, you can have it. It’s beat and could use a good polish and you’re gonna need new screws. Previous owner must have been blind lol. It’s sitting in my safe not being used.

Let me know how many screws you need. If I have them in the back, they are yours. I'll check in the morning when our store opens up (former AD) and figure out how many I have.

I’m a new member here, just bought a 16622 and I kid you not, Cory is the reason why I joined.

To hear of someone’s misfortune and to offer something for free that could have brought him some coin (regardless of condition of the bracelet) speaks volumes of this community.

Hope to be here for many years to come.
