Those things sell for $3000-$5000

Prove it's real and you might sell it.


Here is a list of items needed:

- Better Front Picture (Turn on the light)
- Back Picture of the time piece
- Picture of the owner manual next to the watch
- Serial number  (Rolex can verify it)
- Receipt or reason to why there is none (A few friend of mine own there and they are real sticky about keeping all this info to "maintain resale value"

This is basic stuff for Rolexes.  Can't believe we have to ask 4 to 5 times.

I thought you were selling this for a friend? Does the friend also not have a phone? How unusual.
Therefor he lives right next door, right?  Not two hours away.

What kind of logic is that?  Everyone else has a camera, therefor you must have one too..?

I'm asking 142.0 BTC or best offer.  There's simply so much more to be done with those BTC than a watch could accomplish.

Yeah, I explained twice though how I lost my phone and do not have access to a camera.  When I obtain one, I'll add more pictures.

Considering that practically everyone in the west has a camera (whether it's part of a phone, laptop, tablet or whatever) your inability to post pictures suggests you want to keep this deal as hush-hush as possible....or else you'd have simply borrowed someone's phone, camera, tablet for 2 minutes.

I think everyone who buys a Rolex is aware of fakes out there, no need to spam somebodies thread when you have no actual reason to believe it's fake.

There's no actual reason to believe it's genuine.

Well I stepped up and posted about this:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/noteworthy-selling-rolex-oyster-perpetual-air-king-128041


I used the word "potential" at this point.   After reading all the responses and the brazen attitude, it is a red flag.


Note:
  Due diligence has been taken and the store who sold it verified Dank's receipt.

Could you guys kindly start your own thread in the scam accusations board regarding your reasoning to judge me based on your assumptions.

Why?  If you are trying to sell something, potential buyers should know that you are running a ponzi, and trying to STEAL as many coins as you can from as many people as you can.  No assumption here - the thread exists in Long-term offers.

Why not use some of that voodoo you were spewing and have :god: conjure you up a camera out of your asshole?


WALMART = cheap digital cam for $30... maybe a Webcam.. even cheaper.

I doubt it.  If you don't think it's real, don't buy it.  That simple.


Dank - This is not the line you should take when asking someone to fork over a thousand dollars.   It really lends more to something being off about this deal.   Talking a photo in the dark, taking only one photo, upside and berating interested buyers for asking for proof of authenticity.   Not a good sign.   Maybe you should re-think your approach.    If the Rolex is legit, it can be proven quite easy and any comment to the contrary shows some bad faith.   


P.S.  I think you mean, "Its that simple".

The watch is not fake, my friend received it as a graduation present and no longer desires it.  Make your own thread if you want to name call.

I do not steal things. I do not fraudulently label things. My friends and I are pooling together our goods to invest in BTC, it's that simple.

Bullshit! Look at the "Long Term Offers" thread where you are running a ponzi.  That makes you a thief wannabe.

dank's "I don't need to prove it's genuine" approach is just precious.

I find it more bizarre than precious, really.

The price he's asking is suspiciously low too.

I hope he doesn't find a sucker here. It's hard to tell though, there are no shortage of suckers on the forum.

Somehow, I doubt you have the intelligence to understand what a ponzi is.  Sad

I know full well what a ponzi is. I'm with... TEAM FAKERS. It was a parody. You were not the intended target. Smiley
It's a sad reflection of the state of debate on the forums that my completely inane comment was taken to be serious.

This is one of my favourite ever forum posts. I would fucking love it if the forum was split between people who think Dank's watch is genuine and people who think it's fake.

You make me blush.  Smiley

Just a quick note for anyone thinking of purchasing this watch -

Rolex watches ALWAYS come with a certificate of authenticity, and this certificate is guarded carefully by the owners. Lost certificates can be replaced. If the watch has no certificate then it is fake or stolen.

My understanding is that Rolex also keeps records of every service ever performed by them on a watch and maintains a list of genuine watches reported to them as stolen (and that this list can be accessed by the public to verify that a watch hasn't been reported to Rolex as stolen).

dank's "I don't need to prove it's genuine" approach is just precious.  If he's not willing to verify the authenticity and genuine ownership of the Rolex, then you have to wonder about how the coins he's been selling were acquired, too.

I was only looking to spend around $40 on the watch

Bargain hunter eh? I like your style. This is the kind of price where even if it was fake it would be a pretty good deal, assuming it does actually work.

I was going to say that no one should buy it, but I am revising that to say that no one should pay more than $40 for it.

Just read the replies in this thread.  The ignorance is really unnecessary.  Believe it or not, such a narrow perception of teenagers does not actually apply to everyone.

I do not steal things.  I do not fraudulently label things.  My friends and I are pooling together our goods to invest in BTC, it's that simple.

Asking 142.0 BTC.

So you're not willing to offer any evidence whatsoever that the watch is authentic.  You haven't even seen any proof yourself that it's authentic.  You want people to accept the word of your friend.  Hell, you're not even offering to take it to a local Rolex dealer and get them to give you something confirming its authenticity.  Does your friend not have a camera which can be used to take better photos of both the inside and the outside of the watch case to assist in selling this item?  Hell, you haven't even told us the serial number.

Get over yourself dank.  People are asking very reasonable questions given that you want over $1000 for the watch and you're throwing a tantrum like a petulant toddler.

The onus is on you and your friend to prove that the watch is authentic, not on potential buyers to prove that it's fake (which they obviously can't do pre-purchase because they can't take it along to a Rolex dealer until after they buy it).  Stop being such a tiresome wanker.

By the way.  From your awful photo it looks like that might be a vintage Rolex which means that service history is going to be important to potential buyers.  Your friend should be able to remember where and when he last had it serviced.  It also looks from the picture like it has some wear and tear so watch buffs are likely to take the cost of having it restored to excellent condition into account.

~1800$ for one of the most often faked items on the interwebs. Blind.

Didn't you previously mention you didn't have friends?

The watch is real, friend said it was bought for over $2100 new.

Again, I don't have a camera since my phone is missing.  Will post another pic whenever I can.

I don't mind waiting for the photo.

I was only looking to spend around $40 on the watch, though, and that's including the nice box. If it's real, it deserves a better owner than me.
