Suggest to take a trip over there to collect the watch in person. Definitely need to look at it in person before making payment. Again, too good to be true!!!

Sorry, even for that amount, I would have a hard time justifying purchasing it.

Was purchased by a zero FB buyer, hmmmm wonder what that could mean

The last time this account was used to sell was May last year.

The photos are stock photos in this listing, and the starting bid at $14k these are going for around $40k-$45k even more, this has to be a scam!

I would say you would not receive what is pictured and the Shill bid is certainly ringing the alarm bells.
