Aren't these always for sale on ebay? The one you tried to sell can be used the same way, it could be bought by someone with a fake watch.

But the warrenty cert would have a different serial # then the fake watch. The blank one allows you to insert the serial # of the fake watch

Because people who make replicas don't have the ability to enter whatever serial number they want on a watch, right?

I'll agree to disagree since I don't see it as any different. As bnewbie said in your sale post, your item can be used to scam someone just as much as this one you point out.

I see this one different, it can be filled with rep serial and ref (way easier scam).
