I am shocked at the accusation of bait and switch provided their quotes including the one you had provided says "up to" right before the offer. the up to means what bob has offered is not a bait and switch. I would expect every non complete watch to be about $500 less than their maximum.

They aren't backing off a bid. They are giving you a hard offer upon inspection of the watch. I would sell it and move on and know they are going to put the cash in you account asap. i would guess on the watches I own I would get 1000-2000 more than bobs pays on ebay. But there is more risk imo and ebay and perhaps paypal fees.

How about we ask for someone who has sold to Bobs Watches where they paid every last cent of their "up to" offer to chime in here

Anyone
