You may or may not recall but when G.S.W. first joined here he was listing watches for sale. His language raised quite a few eyebrows with a lot of "we are offering this" and "we that". The community, as well as the mod team, questioned him and he swore up and down that he was not a dealer. Initially, it is our stance to take someone at their word. However, he was very closely watched and sure enough he stopped offering watches for sale. His attitude, however, was not that amenable so we gave him a time out for a month. Shortly after his time out, ROCKAREP joined the forum. He even contacted us saying he wanted to be vetted for high value sales and had some nice offerings to sell. We vetted him and gave him the go ahead. He began selling a watch here and a watch there.
Over time though, it started to become clear that he was a dealer. As we noticed this, evidence came to light that G.S.W. and ROCKAREP were posting from the same IP address. We were also informed of their shared paypal address which was under a company name called Geneve Swiss Watch Company. Once we discussed all of the evidence, we took action as outlined in this thread.
