A low quality Motors T fake but Ebay Oz, 900+ rated seller and a dodgy valuation certificate.

Sorry, at work so can't post pics

seller is overdoing it with that starting bid of 8k, doubt anybody will be stupid enough to bid.

Yes, a high starting bid close to retail price is unlikely to tempt unsupsecting buyers but you never know.

It's possible the seller doesn't know so the smart thing to do is list high for the first run and see what happens. I have done that before, and gradually dropped week to week until I had a sale. Considering how cheap it is to list there's no reason to gamble on trying to hit the right price to start... and you really never know when someone will click the thing.

Agree it is definitely one of the more scary ones.... fairly decent fake (to the average joe), high feedback, and the paper.



If Ebay won't remove it I'd be interested to know what the guy on the paper would say if contacted.

I've already brought it to the attention of the appraiser but have yet to get a response. Given by the strange spelling ("Bentleigh") on both the valuation certificate and listing, I'm not sure if the certificate is a crude forgery or has been issued by somebody who is completely inept.

Bentleigh is a suburb near the seller (and they still got the spelling wrong) and the valuation is as fake as the watch. The seller is a low rent junk dealer.
