Scam dealer on Ebay?


I’ve been noticing an Ebay dealer by the handle "skillful_sailor_japan" selling some good kit at exorbitant prices. Sponsored listings so they come up in your searches. Be careful out there especially if you’re not used to buying online/ebay. An example is a Jelco 250 (retails for $350) for $2000.

There is a very beautiful Casio G Shock Frogman watch listed on eBay for $29,000. It is a very limited edition designed by a famous Japanese artist. It is a stunner! But is it worth $29,000? You decide. The Casio Frogman is listed by a store that specializes in Casio watches. One wonders if there is any uh, "value added" simply by listing the watch, more or less free advertising, even if it never sells. Hmmmmmm...

Believe it or not there are some rabid G-Shock collectors out there.  I actually made a good bit of money 5-10 years ago collecting and selling them.  I haven’t kept up with the market lately, but when I was in it, that G-Shock was easily selling for around 3k+ back in the day, I have no idea what the real worth is today.
There seems to be quite a strong market for G Shocks. It's hard to get a deal. 😬
