Potential Ebay scam

Looks like a legitimate account may have been compromised.

Nice watches, for auction (but with an option to 'buy it now') by filling out a form... The 5513 is 3500 AUD, the rest seem to be about 5000 USD...

I was looking at a ratty 1680.

I didn't think eBay allowed external links?

Report the seller.
