Last Thursday I won an Ebay auction for a NOS Autavia bezel at 357 euro, which I paid on Friday. Today I sent the seller ( a well known European OTD member behind an obscure alias) a short note thru ebay asking him about shipment and tracking.
He replied "I dont want the hassle" i'll cancel the sale. A few minutes later I received the ebay cancellation request in which he claimed the (NOS!) bezel to be "broken/fehlerhaft".
I refused his cancellation request, but he persisted. Money is now back in my paypal account.
What is strange that 1 week earlier he listed 2 of the same bezels for €550. He refused my "best buy" offer for the two items at a price well above the €357 for which I won the auction on thursday.
I've been absent from the site and the market for 2 years, but is this today's Heuer world?
