And now the rest of the story.....

Turns out the auction that I bought was the scam! The seller had even told me he shipped the watch last Friday but when I informed him of the other auction, he cancelled our auction quickly and sent a PayPal refund shortly after that. He had a really lame explanation that was most likely not true and he did not address the other auction at all. The other seller confirmed to me this morning that it was his watch and pictures and that they had obviously been stolen. I want to thank LouS for bringing this to my attention as I doubt I would have spotted it as it was an Italian Ebay auction and I normally do not search other countries. No money lost but it sure has wasted a lot of my time. Just try contacting anyone on ebay to report something like this. After several tries, I gave up. I normally do not leave negative feedback for any auction but I did for this one and it is not pretty! Craig
