I though about purchasing this, BUT I had a question. And when I went to ask it the seller has his account set to refuse all questions. So I will keep my money in my pocket.

[zaniac]

He must have fixed it, Butch because it allows me to ask a question and there are two other questions at the bottom of the ad from today. Unless he blocks questions from you only

[Butch]

THAT is always a distinct possibility. Anyway, after the first bid, the $350 BIN price was gone. Why would someone BID $333 when they could have bought it for $350? Ah well.

[zaniac]

Yeah, if you're going to spend $333, what's another $17? Dumb, but I see it often.
What's with the matte finish on the dial? I've only seen them in gloss.

[Butch]

C'mon man, it's just poor photography skills. Or bad lighting. Like my pictures.

My grandpa used to say, "Believe none of what you read and only half of what you see."

[Butch]

Come to think of it, I wonder if the email problem was an eBay FU and not the seller settings... Monday I was updating one of my auctions with some pictures and eBay was doing some stupid shit then.

[zaniac]

Yeah, Monday ebay was definitely screwed up. Most of the photos in different ads wouldn't show up.
He mentions the matte finish on the dial in the description or I probably wouldn't have thought twice about it.

[Cobber]

An ebay SNAFU is probably the culprit.  I tried sending a question to a different seller and kept getting the verification code wrong which was hardly confusing.  I finally tried the "listen to the numbers" option which gave me a set of numbers completely different from what was being shown but worked nonetheless. 

[Butch]

Yeah, I have had to listen to the numbers for about a year now.

And you guys want me to READ the ad? Dunno about the matte finish, but the dial looks original to me. Looked again, maybe light aged?
