  1. This is an example of the exact problem - it ought to be a great idea, but in reality folk have their own perception of what is or isn't important in a dealer. Some crave service, some just want a watch. At the end of the day, it's got to be right for the buyer.

    I do remember someone put a lot of work into an Excel spreadsheet to 'score' dealers - but ultimately it comes down the individual's assessment.

    :)

    There you are.

    I will also agree that a rating system with pre-agreed factors and rating ranges will be nice ..... though I understand that is difficult to implement and maintain

  2. The below is the e-mail I received from Joshua of perfect-clones aka WatchWindersWorld.

    I asked if he could get me a better price on the Breitling Chronomat Evo.

    After that e-mail, I just stopped buying from those 4 dealers.

    Whatever they say is NOT justified, because they charge at least 200%-300% of the GuangZhou street price, and who knows how much more they charge out of factory price.

    So far I have tried to stay out of this conversation (and topic) since there are things and opinions that I share and others that I dont....... but this reply

  3. Many things have said regarding "Dealer's reviews".

    Some members (mainly the newbies) post a review almost immediately when they get the watch ( I was doing that 4-5 years ago).

    On the other extreme "the veterans" almost never post a dealer review.

    At this very moment, all of our dealers here, are/can be considered as "good dealers" (that does not apply to private sellers though).

    - The majority of our dealers here carry almost the same models.

    - Their communication is more or less good.

    - They are trying to solve the problems in most of the cases.

    - Their prices are more or less the same.

    - Bad dealers dont survive here cause they banned by Admin and Mods (sooner or later).

    So were are really the differences on our dealers ???

    - On how presice they are on what they sell (watch specs and white lies)

    - The number on defective watches they send out.

    So let's concentrate only in these two aspects.

    Note: of course they can be some exceptions to the above were in this case the "Dealer review" has a significant meaning for a particular transaction.

  4. Angus is the man! buy from him with no worries!

    that said, he has been a little slow getting back to me recently as well, but answer he will.

    I got a reply from him today (regarding a pending repair) ... so he is around.
