I bought a Cartier watch thru EBAY with the description "Original Cartier Box and booklets". When the item arrive, the accompanying booklet is not for the model that I bought but for a different model. I called them to report that they send a different manual and Jake, the owner, said that they do not pay much attention about the booklet when they list the item on EBAY which I thint is BS. So I left a negative feedbak to EBay and they retaliated by leaving a feedback that I am an extortionost and a liar.
I am attaching the correspondence between us four your conlusion.
HERE ARE THE CORRESPONDENSE.

Dear swisswatchexpo,
I received the item just 15 minutes ago and the enclosed manual is for Roadster not for the Santos Galbee.
Please advice.
Jimmy

Dear snkycat,
I've checked the paperwork -- (and we have every box numbered in the office) -- you received the correct package.
I've spoke to Jake and he explained that as each Rolex comes with the paper certificate for this particular model/serial number (of course many of them lost and lot of pre-owned watches are sold without them), Cartier in many occasions are sold without the certificates, just general booklets which are "ORIGINAL CARTIER BOOKLETS" as described in the listing, but not necessary is about this model.
I actually opened several packages for other Cartier we have on sale, and the booklets have the description of 3-4 other models, not the one they came with. I've checked 5 different packages which we've bought from the different sources -- and mistake is not possible, each watch/package is labeled as soon as they arrive.
I hope that explains the booklet contents.
Best,
Victoria
