: Funnily enough it's been removed!

: I once found a Siffert on eBay, the seller had uploaded two bad and
: blurry pictures, starting price £500, collection only (from the
: UK) and he wouldn't send any more pictures because he couldn't
: be bothered to take any. He knew it was a Siffert and said in
: the listing it was worth at least £2,500. I arranged to meet
: him in London a couple of days later (I was going there anyway
: with a friend who was a Royal Marine so was ready, just in case
: it was a scam!). He then emailed to say he couldn't go to
: London, so I left it and decided it was all a scam. The next
: morning he emails to say he's at home and free to meet me, he
: lived 10 miles from me! I Googled everything about him and his
: address, and examined it on Google Earth. The watch still had no
: bids on eBay! I parked nearby and left my money etc hidden in
: the car just in case. It turned out it was genuine, unrestored,
: with correct GF bracelet, I think it was a Mk2, I paid him £400
: cash and drove home a very happy man.

: My point is that there are a lot of idiots out there who will do
: everything possible to not sell their watches for what they're
: worth!
