I gotta agree with that. Keep in mind that, even if the pics are of a legit OMEGA, you have no guarantee that what you receive after you've paid for the auction is even the exact same wacth shown. There have been cases where fakes have been sold using photos of a real watch swiped from someone else's auction or from a website.

As I find myself telling people more and more... don't be so damn cheap that you take a risk of losing all your money buying from questionable sources just to save a few bucks. Especially on new and recent model used watches, the deals on eBay and other auction sites seldom are that great anyway. There are just too many people bidding for anyone to get a real steal of a deal.
