just wow, refunded this guy half and today he files a claim for significantly not as described and then i come here to find out he's been banned. Can a mod email me the reason why is was banned as now I have to deal with this claim against my paypal. Thanks

Well I submitted a request for a missing item at Aramex (canadian office supposedly has very few people and even fewer "inspectors") so I guess we'll see what happens. I cannot claim anything back as it was at the buyer's request I mark down the package to value of 20 CAD which does not even cover the shipping charges. Sorry for involving everyone but as seen in the thread many parts were left out which are vital to have a fair view of the entire ordeal. Thanks

i already proposed that solution

So what would the majority here do since I have never had an issue like this. As stated aramex opened the package and filled out the form not myself as I have posted what I filled in. And buyer is insistent I put in tag heuer electronically which is probably the most idiotic thing to do with this hobby. Clearly there's proof aramex opened the package and it seems like an agent stole the watch. Not customs but aramex. Buyer has given me an ultimatum til tomorrow morning uk time to issue him a full refund so that means I'm out the watch (238 plus shipping from the twins) plus what I paid to ship it to the uk. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated Regards

so we are arguing if I put down tag hever on the invoice? I am not that foolish

So instead of working things out privately you've made it into a very public affair. So I will post everything I have rather than deal with it on an email basis. But before anything I have sold watches to people in the UK, please take a look at my feedback, I would not be as foolish as to write down tag heuer or hever. Like I've told you Aramex has a hub in Toronto, Canada. They do not pick them up themselves, I have asked for an email of the entire process from Aramex Canada office. 1. I created the shipment online 2. system gives you two forms, customs declaration which I filled out via buyers request, 2nd is a shipping label (and if you take a look it ships it to a hub) 3. Aramex told me verbally they take the info on the forms which are sent electronically to them and they print off their own labels. So this makes perfect sense that they opened the package then wrote down tag hever as they needed to know what a "gift" was inside of the box. and to answer your question about the aramex invoice, when I talked to the rep they backdate it so it matches the actual ship date. For example if I was in Vancouver and I created a label on the 22nd but did not arrive into aramex's custody until the 24th they would still have to date the aramex invoice for the 22nd.

alright everyone the seller was me. to answer a question above the reason why the tracker shows like that is that aramex does not have pick up or drop off in Canada. They use Purolator which picks up and delivers to their sort facility in Canada. First off I have sold plenty on this forum and sent a few to the UK, I did EXACTLY as the buyer requested I do, mark down as gift value 20 CAD. After a 30 minute conversation with Aramex it seems as though nothing was charged on the package (and it has been dropped off to another carrier as it is outside aramex's delivery zone, I am assuming royal post and according to the rep already cleared customs). The package was opened before boarding a plane from Canada because it was labeled gift. If I had wrote down watch or anything else it would have never been opened according to the agent I spoke to. I have included a screenshot of the original customs declaration to show exactly what I wrote down. I have already offered to take back the watch and refund the money but that was not good enough according to the buyer.

Haven't posted in a long time but here's what I've got today

Forgot to tighten after taking off the rubber strap does anyone have spares?

nice job JMB ! hmm seriously considering just going that route.

@Zeleni --> @Ephry73 --> if I decide to trash it by all means you have first dibs, but someone has offered to see what they can do And thanks to JMB for his answers to all my questions earlier! cheers

LOL thanks for the ideas guys! I guess I'll just be trashing this one... too bad it's a more expensive mbw and not a cheaper one

Just wanted some interesting ideas with what to do to a 1665 midcase with badly drilled lug holes . I guess the only option out there that was suggested by JMB was to fit fixed bars into the watch, but as I search there's no gen with a 1665 case with fixed lugs. Any other ideas guys? Thanks

Looks awesome, just wondering if this will fit PT's 6542 without modification? I only ask because the NDT that's recommended by donerix comes with the bezel also hence the price tag I assume? thanks

where did you get that leather nato from?
