Update: I called Wingate's and the invoice is legitimate. I verified the purchase date, invoice # and amount. Now to finalize the process we would need to match the serial number with the number on the invoice and at that point, it would be the real deal.
Dank - I know you may think this was excessive but this is standard practice when buying luxury goods. I was skeptical you would do this with the amount of time you have spent with us on the forums but I hope you understand how your initial responses would raise red-flags.

Dank - Can you tell me the number that is on the back? It is under the band in your back picture and it ends with 557.
Thanks

Does luckyshare have a forum account? Or the miner at BTC Guild who solved 209999? I was going to give them special forum titles.
That is a nice gesture Theymos. We should get them on here if they don't. |

I'm surprised that it took you this long to figure it out. It should have been pretty obvious. Every single person on this board, except for you and a few other people, is part of the conspiracy. We call ourselves the "Brotherhood". Our goal was to take all of your money. Those bitcoin things? They were invented just to suck you in so that you would give us all your money.
I'm telling you this now because the conspiracy has been exposed, and there is no way we are going to get any more money from you. We (the "Brotherhood") are going to return to our normal lives now. Go ahead and send me all your BTC. It's just a big hoax anyway.
Hahaha, thank you for the good chuckle. Good stuff. |

Can you provide the model number? Also, are you the original purchaser with access to sales order(s) for warranty purposes? Thanks! Link: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817703028No I am not the original owner of them so I don't have access to that. But they have worked without any hiccups like a workhorse. |

Oh come on. Anyone buying used Singles is just using them to upgrade to ASICs. Everyone knows that.
Can you still upgrade them at this point? I thought there was a cutoff? |

I have removed the words "Potential Scam" from the posting summarizing of the sellers responses up to the point where a picture of the receipt and serial number was provided. Now we do some due diligence.
We still need some more picture with the light on to evaluate its condition.

dank has posted an image of the receipt for the watch, so it might be time to shut this thread.
Where is the said receipt? I didn't see it on the listing? Please point us in the right direction. |

I think its sort of asinine to spam the thread with, ITS NOT REAL MORE PICS! First off, I've never had any deals other than good with Dank, and I don't really see him refusing escrow, so the matter of scamming is out. This does not speak on the genuinity of the watch itself, but I think it at least warrants him a slight bit of reasonable doubt, enough to at least be allowed to find more evidence. Just wait until he gets the pictures that others have said are needed to determine authenticity.
Did you actually read his responses? Reasonable doubt is long gone I am afraid. No one has asked for escrow because we don't want to waste someones time until we can be sure it is worth putting an earnest payment up. Would you even ask for escrow off of one dark upside down picture and the excuse, I got high and broke my only access to a camera but my childhood friend next door doesnt have one either. I mean seriously?  But you bring up a great question. Dank - Will you do escrow once you provide a serial number we can verify? I am a potential buyer if it genuine. Like people said, there is a market for vintage Rolexes. |

No, in my shoes you would have done the same thing because you don't have access to a camera or the means to obtain one.
I'll post pics tonight.
In your shoes I would have taken all the steps necessary to verify that the watch was authentic before listing it for sale. I also would have posted a decent photo of the watch (seriously, it's upside down in the picture for one thing). Losing your phone doesn't excuse the crappy photo you posted when you still had it. As I've already said, I don't think you really care what the watch sells for because it was a gift (or you know it's counterfeit/stolen) - so you're not willing to go to any effort to sell it because it's all profit anyway. You do not need a camera in order to tell people the serial number, though - you've repeatedly ignored requests for that information. Whether you "can't be bothered" or you're with-holding information because you know damned well that you're misrepresenting the watch hardly matters - your own actions have now created a presumption that the watch is fake and the onus is now on you to prove otherwise. +1 Bingo. Now we understand why transactions should be done in a certain manner. This is not rocket science, the hard part is finding reputable people to trade with. |

Can you just wait until I sell it and prove you wrong?
I really, really hope that no one is stupid enough to buy it from you. Not just because I don't want someone to get scammed, but because I would weep for humanity. Is anyone really stupid enough to buy this watch from Dank? Is the human brain capable of such an error? Please, god, don't let it be the case. People gave a pirate thousands of Funbucks in an obvious Ponzi scheme. Glad to finally see where the BACKBONE of this forum is. I was really starting to wonder. We can't let buyer beware be the mantra for letting people less informed than others get scam and hurt. It just drives people away, we need more people to talk more positively about Bitcoin. You can't search google about Bitcoin without finding your way here, that is the hard fact. |

The stupidist thing about your attitude, dank, is that there's a high demand for genuine, vintage Rolexes. If you can prove that the watch you're selling is authentic, you can almost certainly sell it for more than the 142 BTC you're asking. The exact model number determines how much it's worth.
Yet again, though, you're not prepared to put in any effort. If you don't get off your ass and put in the effort, people are only going to be willing to pay the price a Rolex knock-off would command. I guess it's all profit anyway if you're selling a gift so why bother, hey?
AMEN!!!!!!!!!! +1 This is why I am making such stink about this. This is Bitcoin, get your shit together man. We are actually trying to help you Dank. It will be a sad day when every fucking long time member of this forum turns out to be bunk. |

To hate another is to hate yourself, we are all the same.
Genetically we are very much the same, as for character, I don't think so. In your shoes I would of proofed up real quick and put all this speculation to rest. Big difference, if you talk the talk, walk the walk. I don't put things out there that I can be called on and not deliver, and I definitely don't act so cavalier about it. |

I don't think a scammer accusation is necessary. There is clearly enough concern in the original thread to cause any buyer to beware.
And until DANK fails to pay a loan or does not complete a trade for no reason then a scammer accusation is premature.
You could also start a "We don't like or trust Dank" Thread. That would probably be more appropriate.
Thanks.
@BCB - I agree. But this thread was not accusing Dank of being a scammer, this deal is what is the problem. Usually when people consider going rogue, there are red flags and with his responses, warranted more attention. Plus, in a thread format, it was a bunch of debating and off-topic responses, that helps hide the real issue. |

Is anyone really stupid enough to buy this watch from Dank? Is the human brain capable of such an error? Please, god, don't let it be the case. Seriously. I love how we just need to wait to read the post "Rolex was fake, help me get my coins back". It will take about how the user thought we were just broke haters and how he thought [insert OP] was misunderstood. Funny thing was, I actually wanted to purchase it when I first heard about it coming available. I like how low key the model is. F**k I am stupid for asking for basic information. |

Why do you feel the need to reinstate your perspective of others, rather than allowing people form an opinion based on the person respectively?
Can't waist my gas, I have a few dollars in cash, rest in BTC. Not going to go out of my way for your doubt. I'll post pics eventually, it's really not going to change the realness of this watch, though.
Pictures, serial, manual will actually change it's "realness". FYIP.S. I thought your childhood friend was real close by? Hmmm |

If the buyer doesn't mind being made public or at least providing the serial number so it can be validated, yes then we could. But you can't mask your attitude about all this, maybe you don't see it, but the way you are handling this just supports the thesis that is watch is not authentic. Please prove us wrong, that is done by just selling it to someone that "believes" it is real. We can actually verify that, but you keep dodging the issue and that lends to increasing probability that you are trying to take advantage of someone. Time to proof up Dank. I have already stated I will rescind my statements. No apology though, you don't deserve that because how you handled this high ticket transaction and the numerous legitimate questions brought this on yourself. Just read Exhibit A-G again. |

I'm sorry, I didn't realize there were regulations on such a thing.
Seriously stop it, you just keep discrediting yourself. Even hardcore libertarians don't want to be sold faux goods presented at authentic. I don't think you are stupid, so now we delve into other potential motives. |

In this day an age I don't understand why it would be difficult to get your hands on a camera.
I can walk down to my local library and use a PC with a webcam for free.
You are asking for something too obvious. This is a gentlemen that is selling precious metals but has not access to a camera because he got too high and broke his phone and his childhood friend (who lives next door) doesn't have one but does have a genuine Rolex.

From my spiritual experience last week, I can surely attest that it's really better to let things be than to act like you know everything. If you talk in certainty about what you don't know, you surely won't be right, specially given when the opposing party knows better.
If you don't understand something, don't act like you do. If you don't understand, explicitly, how this could be a replica, then why bother pretending you do?
We all have fears, talking about them will not make them happen when it's in someone else's control. It only reflects the fear in you.
There are people you can and cannot trust. If you cannot trust me that I trust my friend from childhood, then I don't see how you can trust anybody. I'm done with living in a world of isolation where I can't trust anybody, I'm taking the other route of trusting that no human will wrong me unless I do something to cause it.
Better ways to use energy than in fear.
Oh I understand quite correctly here. You can try and talk about irrelevant issues but the facts remain. It only get worse from here. You better sit down with your childhood friend and have a long talk about how you sell a Rolex.
