For all the railing I have done over the years regarding those [email protected][email protected]$ who swing back door deals on ebay and don't let the auctions go to their fair and rightful endings, I found myself a participant in the "back door deal"
Having been on the look out for some time for a perfect King Seiko buckle to adorn my 5626 Chronometer, I finally found it. I offered the seller a fair bid to end early and sell it to me. He took me up on the offer, ended it early, and sent me an official ebay invoice so we did not circumvent the auction web site and their fair vig.
Very pleased. See photo. Truly the perfect match with the proper brushed center and polished edges, flawless NOS state. Couldn't be better suited.
I have been the recipient of having been offered back door deals as a seller before, but always turned them down, sometimes only to see the final winning bid lower than what had been offered. Now I find myself as the Back Door Man and I hate to say it, but I do not feel bad about it.
