Re: Here is a Warning Received from a Reader

These two little beauties have made a cameo on the forum before, in January, following this link below.

2 Monacos sold for $5500 on the 'bay??? Someone here?? (views: 147) -- Stephen Greene -- 1/19/10 22:17 GMT

I don't know how to include the link properly so I just cut and pasted. I nearly bought the blue one last May but something was a little iffy about the seller.

I smell something odd and it's not just my new aftershave.

Beware

: Here is a message that one of our readers sent to me, regarding
: this watch. Prospective bidders might do well, to do some
: homework / due diligence on this one.

: Hi Jeff, I was concerned about the interest that the On The Dash
: Contributors have about the Bucherer Monaco as I remember months
: back a similar one went up for sale and this same seller was
: also selling a Heuer Monaco. In the discussion some of the
: different contributors to On The Dash talked about how this was
: an individual you should not deal with. So I included a link to
: this past posting, hopefully you can see the relationship I see
: with the Bucherer Monaco being sold now on ebay with this past
: one. I think it is the same person again trying to sell it. Also
: what struck me was how they do not accept paypal through ebay
: and want to do a wire transfer. Here's the link to the ebay
: listing and the past On The Dash Posting about the seller. I
: just don't want to see anyone get ripped off by this individual.
