It takes a big man to admit he got ripped off big time. Thanks to you making this brave video a lot of us will be saved from making the same mistake. Many thanks.
I think as long as you know this can happen, it helps you prepare for next time! Always a learning experience, but this one hurt haha thanks for watching :)
@@LifeontheWrist Yeah, he looked at that watch and with that money he bought a bunch of Replicas and sold those replicas for the price of a real Rolex. This is what they do is venders from Africa that do some kind of scam on you and they get your watch or the legit Rolex an individual sells buys a bunch of replicas, and then they keep selling the replicas for 10,000 dollars.
Hey man, sorry for your loss. As someone who would love to buy a rolex (but will probably never) felt gutted to hear about this, onwards and upwards dude!
Dont think like that brotha, you can do anything you set your mind too. Tell yourself you WILL have that Rolex one day, and I promise you you will have it. You just need to have the mindset, the law of attraction is real, and it works for me everyday. Watch the movie “The Secret” if you havent already.
I'm Getting ready to sell my first Rolex GMT II on ebay. Thank you for the Video. I have sold many classic cars to Europe and always require Wire Transfer because PayPal Sucks, it protects the Buyer not the Seller. I've heard of horror stories how the buyer will send back a fake watch or claims that they got scammed and the buyer send out the fake watch ect. My strategy will be WireTransfer only! But as this Gentleman just explained, verify with your bank before shipping out! If sell local, only meet at your local police station so you don't get robbed, It happens all the time. Thank you for sharing your experience.
The similar happened to my closed one's they bought cheap rolex (Refurbished) and never got Tracking ID , called the number it was switched off no reply via email yet, the site even passed the legit test online LOL It wasn't much money but hard earned money still hurts and pandemic's impact on businesses have made it worse . stay safe there is no another time once you learned the lesson😉
@@LifeontheWrist This is how the Online Rolex market works. The seller lives in Nigeria The Rolex watch comes from China The individual goes online buys the Rolex watch thinking is an original Rolex watch but he or she pays 10, 20, 30, or 50 thousand dollars for a replica or fake Rolex watch. This is the reason for a song called God Bless China for Making Rolex should be made. That means God greatest blessing is China for making Rolex watches that are replicas to sell them online for the price of the real Rolex so people in developed countries like the US could buy them, so they could make money for a living.
only meet in person and make sure your in safe public place and do your homework on buyer/ or seller come to that. but never send a luxury watch through the post.
sorry to hear that. I very rarely deal with money transfers online it's mostly cash and done. Usually if it's done with s check I do it at the bank with the person online is good but also risky... again sorry to hear about that very unfortunate
No worries! It wasn’t suppose to be a check, suppose to be a wire transfer I just didn’t know enough about it! Like i said it was a learning experience. I am definitely a lot more careful now after the experience. Have you ever gotten scammed/close to being scammed?
@@LifeontheWrist a few times actually almost got scammed but nothing to write home about. People are very evil some times and I learned that at a young age to be careful with a lot of stuff especially money
Man...this is tough to go thru. I bought an 18k Day date of ebay with wire transfer. Had no problems 100 percent genuine with all the bells and whistles. I eventually sold the watch and made 2K in profit. You have to do your research on the seller or buyer thoroughly. Sorry you got had and you lose your time piece.😞. Thx for sharing and making us a smarter shopper. Much appreciated brother. Stay cool!✌
I appreciate your sympathy! It is what it is, and it really was a good learning experience. As a collector, definitely have had a couple new watches since then! 😋

@@LifeontheWrist unsure what the watch cost you bud but I have friends that have lost 100s of thousand of pounds in bad business scruture, divorcing wives and theft of the same kind as you're watch.there is always someone worst off elsewhere
Never cut out the middle man and do business directly with the buyer. ALWAYS do business through Ebay. No transactions or messages outside of Ebay. Hell don't evens get postage outside of Ebay. You want Ebay to see and track EVERYTHING and EVERY CONVERSTION!!
I don’t understand why you wouldn’t contact the police in your area and his area. You obviously shipped the watch to an address and there would have been an investigation. You could also contacted eBay about the fraud and worked something out with them.

It’s your type of comment that makes me realize it’s worth talking about. Thank you for watching and the support!
Sorry to hear that brother. I can see in your eyes you're a good guy. Nobody can scam that out of you. I'm sure it stings pretty bad but you'll be ok
Wow, tough break, young man. I probably would have fallen for it, too. And I'm old. These scammers are anything but dumb.
I think as long as you know this can happen, it helps you prepare for next time! Always a learning experience, but this one hurt haha thanks for watching :)
Thanks for your altruism and generosity in sharing this story. Many people would have been too prideful to disclose this matter. Well done.
Thanks for watching!
Did you bought your watch online?
Originally I got it from a collector I know. Which made it more sad to lose it how I did
@@LifeontheWrist Yeah, he looked at that watch and with that money he bought a bunch of Replicas and sold those replicas for the price of a real Rolex.

How luck that everybody on you tube are completely honest guys
Hope my video helped!
Hey man, sorry for your loss. As someone who would love to buy a rolex (but will probably never) felt gutted to hear about this, onwards and upwards dude!
I definitely learnt from my mistake, and like you said onwards! :)

I’m sorry to hear that but yes! Lesson learnt, just must try not habe it happen again! Thanks for watching and commenting
Man, what bad luck!
It was unfortunate for sure!
Just scam someone else, sell the 'Hope Diamond' on eBay, I'm sure you'll get some takers.
Hahaha! I don’t think I want to keep the cycle going 😂
And what about the Banks responsability?? Dont they have insurances? They put money in your account and than took it away!
My thought exactly! Apparently because I dealt with the fraudster, it was not covered. Another thing I learnt during the process. Thank for watching!
eBay is the home of selling replica Rolex watches with a price of an original Rolex watch.
One definitely has to be careful!
@@LifeontheWrist This is how the Online Rolex market works.
The seller lives in Nigeria
The Rolex watch comes from China

Too bad to hear that. The internet is buzzing with stories like yours. sad sad sad. Wish you were able to get a new watch by now.
I appreciate your sympathy! It is what it is, and it really was a good learning experience. As a collector, definitely have had a couple new watches since then! 😋
Never send the watch until you have the cash.
Yes! Hit the nail on the head
Why did you sell the Rolex like that ? Rolex watches is like cash money. Every jewelry store will buy it man !!!
😭😭😭😭😭I had the same one !!! Nooooooo
😞 that’s sucks!!!
