Welcome aboard.
Seller states that it's "repro", but reported anyway.

Gone ? Like in "listing removed" ?
I make it a habit of reporting 2 per week (that is ONLY the dresswatches and i don't even bother to report any south americans, i have a dayjob too)
Until now, NEVER was an auction removed because of that...
I think it was Roff who mentioned that you need to report several times before EBay takes notice of you. Is that true or is there any other reason why they "listen" to you and not me ?

The more you report, the higher your 'score' with eBay and the more weight is given to the report.

Correct.
Reports from "Enhanced member reporting" member are viewed first and have higher credibility.
They even send me a nice water bottle for Christmas with a letter of gratitude.

bnewbie, you're kidding me...right ?

Anyways, hearing this motivates me to go on because it's seriously annoying. I haven't been able to spot 1 doubt free dresswatch for the last 3 weeks on ebay. I gave up the fight against the south americans but anything european that i'm sure is a fake, i'll keep trying.

Thanks for the info....going for a waterbottle now !
