    Default Suspected Fraud Section

    Since it is such a popular pastime of many RGers to spot suspicious sales listings, especially on ebay, and post them here... why not make a sub-forum for it? Or even better, ONE thread for suspected cases of reps being sold as gen where members can post their links to suspicious sales ads. Really, how many different "FAKE PAM ON THE BAY?!" threads do we need? I think one will do.

    It would also be very helpful if posting a screen shot of such sales ads were to become common practice, since ebay listings get removed and links broken so quickly that anyone late to the party has no idea what slightly too-thick crown and wrong date fonts are being discussed.

    Whadayathink?

    Yeah, why not. Plenty of those "fake watch spotted on Ebay" threads all the time.

    It would be good for the hobby. Gen owners that stop by would see that the those most capable of spotting a rep are rep collectors.

    ...and that we rep collectors, in general, are good natured and have no intention of defrauding anyone; that we actually ridicule those who try to sell reps as gens.

    They have sold 5 allegedly genuine case backs and dials and ceramic inserts all claiming to be from a genuine 2015 116610Ln for way less than market value. Curious how they obtained so many of these things to sell

    If you check their feedback you will see they have sold other "gen" Rolex parts such as dials.

    They have 112 positive feedbacks of which many are from the EBay seller of "gen" EBay parts buying from other EBay members.

    I think you set a record for reviving the oldest thread on the internet. Not all heroes wear capes.
