He has no choice (I am not defeding his position, just speaking fact). The backs of most watch bands are stainless, and clearly marked. Tops alone are usually gold filled (not always, as you no doubt know), and are marked accordingly.eagle2 said:The band could be marked GF, but still most of it would still be stainless steel and not even figured in the total weight of so called 1/20 gold fill. Yet the seller includes it as part of the lot weight.
Don't discount the fact that most people know very little about gold, how it is alloyed, and why, how it is marked, and what the markings mean. While they may be ignorant of the facts, the buyer holds a considerable amount of responsibility in making informed purchases, even when the seller may not understand what he's offered. If a deal sounds too good to be true, it probably is.A lot of sellers are subtle scammers.
