Pls click the link. Bargain or scam? Seller has Zero feedback. Is it worth the risk?

The auction still has over a day to go, far from being a bargain yet.

I have no idea whether or not it's a scam but I'd have two reservations about bidding. First, why would a seller list Rolex Daytonas in a lot of three? It seems to me that they would probably make out better listing them individually. Second, and more significantly, I can't imagine the circumstances under which I'd buy a big ticket item from a seller with zero feedback.

One more thing, if the item is in Florida, why is the current bid amount being converted to another currency? When it comes to online buying, I am VERY cautious, perhaps too much, so it's possible that none of these concerns mean anything but I wouldn't risk my money.

I wouldn't touch it unless I could pick it up in person.

Because the OP provided a link to the item on eBay Singapore.

On eBay.com it won't convert the currency - http://www.ebay.com/itm/110883359257?ru ... 26_rdc%3D1

Probably didn't look right to the Rolex pros, just like how we get fakes removed.

No kidding! When it's too good to be true, it probably is!
