SARB035 for $40...what's the scam here I wonder?

eBay listing of Seiko SARB035 for $40USD. The catch? I'm not sure yet. Maybe they take your money and send you...nothing? A broken watch? Or maybe it's just a typo. Feedback seems shady to me. While I can't be certain, many of the positive feedback appears to have been left by similar looking user names. The only negative feedback was two posts typed in Russian which translate to "not received" - shocker. Your thoughts?

Looks as though they are based in China and have lots of the same watch listed for various other peculiarly low prices. Not sure what they stand to gain?

I suppose if they really try and screw me I could open a PayPal dispute. Although I really wouldn't mind a shiny new SARB.

A rep maybe?

I thought about that myself. Would they rep such a "cheap" watch? I mean, they rep just about anything I supposed. Those Tissot PRS models are probably around the same price range and they get repped. I ordered this morning. I figure if there is no update stating "your item has shipped" within 24-hours, then I will message the seller and proceed from there.

Your probably going to receive a message from eBay telling you that the listing is removed and that you can still open a dispute. The seller probably wont ship your item either.

Got the "shipped" notification this morning. Will take about a month to get here. Will post pics of what I receive once it arrives.
