where we stand:
I'll start:

Thanks!!

Damn, Lani! I was about ready to line up all my guns......and take pitures!
-
And now back to the issue at hand...
are you assuming that all Chinese Nationals are involved in some type of counterfeiting industry? that, my friend, is conspiracy theory at its' finest.
Of course not......but we know that the Chinese gov't sponsor a lot of their people to come to the US and Europe to spy on every aspect of the western
world. They are told to work in universities, different industries and gov't agencies....and that's all i could say on this topic!
-
I don't know about you guys, but have you heard about a place called .......your local "library"! Our's carry every music CD and DVD made! If they don't have it, request and they'll order it for you!
Then you rip!!!! Easy.....no bandwidth requirements, just Terabytes of space!

I agree that things will become more difficult. That is part of the reason why I have been narrowing my collection and trying to pick up those models that I intend to keep forever. I feel that the value of some of our reps will be going up.
Unfortunately, as things get tighter... Collectors will use that as an excuse to raise prices also. In some cases it might be justified, but Im sure not all.
Get them while you can....and still at a descent price!

With the recent increase in package inspections by the US Homeland Security dept coupled with this & other recent raids, I think the tide is about to turn with regard to the (mostly) free & open exchange of contraband on the Web. As long as RWG remains accessible from google, it is just a matter of time until the authorities & their army of hungry lawyers turn their sights on RWG & other sites like it.
Best to pull the window shades down & lock the doors when dancing naked.
They finally figured out why there's so many Chinese Nationals and they're all over the place...students, contractors, research assistants, even working in Government posts........it's gonna get tighter!

Hello fellow rep lovers.
I have been lurking around this forum now since about November when I decided to purchase my first serious rep. I already had a VERY shoddy Sub that I picked up from a lucky lucky man in Ibiza a few years ago and that kind of got me thinking that surely there must be descent reps out there if this one (AT FIRST GLANCE) looked so real. I nearly fell into the huge pitfalls of the rep world namely shiny sites showing pics of gens that turn out to be a pile of sh*t but eventually I stumbled across this place. I am now the proud owner of a Omega Seamaster Chrono that I purchased from silix. I also purchased a cheaper Tag link from him but thats not really worth mentioning. Anyway I am wittering on. Thanks for all of your help especially By-Tor and I look forward to chatting to some of you.
Cheers
Paul (Liverpool UK)
Hi Paul! Welcome, fellow addict! You came to the right place!

Well.....if you are going to be insistent on knowing ALL my methods and have me ADVERTISE them on the forum so that ANY interested 5th columnists can gain insight into my shipping methods.......I SENT A WHOLE BLOODY LOAD OF THEM OVER WITH A BUDDY ON THE PLANE....WITH INSTRUCTIONS TO HOLD OFF ON CERTAIN ITEMS.....NAMELY THOSE WHO ORDERED GMT'S.......OF WHICH YOU ARE ONE.....BECAUSE YOU HAVE 1X ITEMIN STOCK AND 1XITEM OUT OF STOCK....I COULD HAVE SENT THEM INDIVIDUALLY.....BUT THAT WOULD MEAN DOUBLE POSTAGE......SO THAT'S WHY IDID WHAT I DID......SO BE PATIENT......THEY'RE ONLY $78 BUXX.....AND BEAR IN MIND ALSO THAT MY FINAL PAYER WAS ON 25TH JANUARY.....AT WHICH POINT I STARTED TO SEND ITEMS OUT.......IT'S BEEN LESS THAN A MONTH.....DO NOT WORK ON THE ASSUMPTION THAT BECAUSE MEMBERS WERE POSTING MID JANUARY ....THAT IT'S BEEN THAT LONG......IT HASN'T.......now would you all chill......!
And if you're being driven nuts worrying about $160 worth of watches.....perhaps this isn't the right hobby Floyd.....!
Neil, Chill!!! If you email, PM or SKYPE this info in the first place, then we won't be here talking about this! .....and I guess you're missing the point of a watch collector, I'm an ADDICT!!!
It's not the COSTS of what I bought...it's the HIT and the HIGH of holding and sniffing the product that I ordered! I feel the same wether its $75 or $7000 watch! I feel the same if I lost a
$75 watch or a $7000! It's the same to me! My name is HIKEUSA and I'm an ADDICT! I hope you got that!
-
Hike.....your DRSD is also on the way to the UK...where it will reside until I can send you the GMT....you need to be patient please.....!
Neil, I'm in the US, why is the watch being sent to the UK? and why was my name on the 1/30 list if they haven't been sent! I would be patient
if I'm getting the right information.....and this kind of info is driving me nuts!
-
@Hike.....your list is way off.....there are way more members that have received theirs now.....!
@Hike.....your list is way off.....there are way more members that have received theirs now....just that they're not as vocal as the members who haven't.......remember bad news travels faster than good news......!
Let's hear some good news! Where am I on the list???? I thought mine was shipped on 1/30, but I have nothing to show for it.....can I get a tracking number???
Can you update this list then, I'm pretty sure lots of folks would like to know!
Thanks!

Hey, DUDE, did you replace someone or you're from another groupbuy? I don't see you on the SS???
So, if I have it correct, 37 souls are still waiting......... you guys care to chime in????
Whoa.....TTK beat me to the punch!!! I guess I won't get the "Extra surprise"....LOL!
-
All items sent...with the exception of 1 or 2GMT's....which I'm working on just now....!
This was two weeks ago.....no site of my order yet! Neil, what gives? Skype says you're online, but I don't get any response.....maybe you're asleep already!
[1:54:44 PM] HikeUSA says: I Neil! Hike here....I didn't recieved my DRSD and GMT till now....Could you provide me with a tracking # please?
[1:59:19 PM] HikeUSA says: Hello! Anybody home???
Could you provide tracking number, please!
Anyone else on the GROUP BUY still waiting???? Let's see some show of hands!!!!

Still ticking!!!

Check with TTK!

Feta, my sweet cheeseguy , here is my suggestion FWIW.
"Piaget Emperador YG White"
Not sure if you'd care for a Quartz, but I think this watch is unusual enough so that NO ONE would suspect it to be a rep. It's pretty darn close to gen too. Had my eye on it for a while.
Nice pick, Vik! I love that! That's on my list now!
-
Looks sharp! Nice combo!
-
trying to load pic for yu but i've used up my available space?
i'll see if i can sent you a pm
You need more space???? Upgrade
This combo doesn't do it for me!
This is the best I've seen:
-
OMG!! Please, more info about this combo!where did you get this strap? the pam it's from Davidsen??
thsnk!!
The watch was from one of our members here azmindreader....perfect transaction sometime last year....I can't remember if this is
a davidsen or not, bit its in perfect shape....I believe this is a PAM026...the only destro I have.
The strap???? Priceless! I made it myself, and tell you what you upgrade and become a supporter, I'll make you one for
FREE including shipping!!! Just tell me what size you want!
BTW: You also promise we'll be friends forever.......hehehe!LOL

Ohhhhh man, my lucky day and I forgot the friggin condom!
-
Shi&%$, I hope she doesn't smell Veronica on me, or else I'm dead!
-
@Hike: Yeah, the first does nothing for me, sadly. But that second one -- I can just imagine YOU wearing the yellow with jeans, and a baby blue shirt. Mmm, mmm.
Thanks Vic! I guess some changes are coming soon! Gotta wear my 197 a little longer to setup for the next test!!!!
-
Is this too bold or overkill then???
specially this:
Do I have to mellow them out to darker straps?????
