Edit. Just sold for £22 so probably not real

I know one of the people featured she attends some of the same auctions I do, and they are even showing one of the auction houses I occasionally use if I am trawling the cheaper end of the market and have a long day to spare.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

I could be wrong, but I think the 'snowballs' might be a bad idea. If I had only amassed a profit of £3000 in 2 years of trading, I would be looking for another careerYou're only young once, but you can be immature forever0

I'm watching it with a time lapse so am a bit behind..the youngster has just spotted the 'Rolex' watch...I assume the dealers are laughing their socks of at him.
It must be a Rolex as to says so on it but then I really wouldn't know a Rolex if I fell over one in the street.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

Oops, sorry. Won't comment about anything else, but this isn't really showing dealers in the best of lights. I would never dream of letting anyone know where I buy and what I pay

They didn't sell it as a Rolex. It was described as "two watches" (it was one of a pair) but matey seemed to think it was genuine as it said the word "Rolex" and got his dad to check it before he took it to a jeweller for verification.
Think he'll not be a millionaire yet.0 -
Won't say too much in case anyone hasn't watched it yet, but out of the 'dealers' shown, only the last one with the furniture seemed to know what he was doing.You're only young once, but you can be immature forever0

It doesn't matter that they didn't advertise it as being a Rolex. If someone sells or attempts to sell an item that is counterfeit and it bears a registered trade mark then they are committing an offence.0
