    Can't imagine many on here will think you can buy that watch for £5k

    I would guess that the Facebook seller has copied the pictures from the eBay advert.

    The facebook ad clearly identifies the seller (although could be a false persona) - so on the basis that someone buys it, and does a face-to-face.........

    Is this a classic example of a super-counterfeit being sold on Facebook?

    I know some on here are happy to use eBay but as a newbie I just fear there are too many people after my hard earned .

    No thanks.

    I wouldn't be going anywhere near that even with the Ebay scheme. Also listed as New with Tags and then then 2nd line of the description 'Gently Used'

    I can see the red flag from here! The more BS the description contains, the more sceptical I’d be. And new account/zero feedback??!
