http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Patek-Phi...item2ebb297d51

40K watch gone for 7K.

Seller feedback 14.

This has to be a joke.. It even has a PP certificate!

Maybe because 2012 is when it will all end and he's getting out of the market ASAP?, lol;)

Horrible pictures. I'd never send money to someone who posts horrible pictures and sadly, I won't be able to make it to Australia for at least another decade.

Those pics are horrible for a 40k watch.

Also the seller has feedback as buyer, but non as seller.

This is a scam for sure, look at what the "seller" has bought. A stylus for 6 cents among others....

He's been a member on Ebay for 2 weeks! n:

His feedback is from China and Hong Kong (most likely all cheap goods; almost all items were "private" another worrisome sign) and it's dated 31 Jan, 1 Feb, and 2 Feb and he still manages to sell a fake watch to some fool with only 7 feedbacks. This unfortunate "winner" is apparently not a shill as most of his recent bid activity has consisted of trying to snipe items at the last moment, as he did with this POS.

16 great feedbacks in 3 days. Yeah right. The pictures may be of a real watch but send your money and you will never hear from him again.
