I paid full price for the watch.
Gave Flex a deposit of $500 USD via paypal and paid the remaining $1000USD via bank remittance. Watch was sent to me while the remittance was in process.
Its been a month, seller insisted that he has not received the remittance.
I called up my bank everyday to ask what had happened.
In the end, I told Seller I have decided to cancel the remittance, wait for the monies then pay via paypal instead.
Seller flew to my country and demanded the watch back. 3 days ago, he came and gotten the watch back.
Feeling sorry I gave him 2 extra straps out of goodwill gesture. He said he will inspect the watch and then to refund the $500 deposit that I paid initially.
Everyday since the cancellation, I have been hounding the bank why the lengthy process of returning the $1000USD back to me.
I was told that I needed to wait for the beneficiary bank to reply. There was nothing I can I do at this point. Bank also advised to take cue from them if its time to make a police report.
3 days passed since I handed over the watch to seller. Send him numerous emails asking for the refund of $500 first. He hadnt reply since.
My last email to him was if he doesnt reply by the hour today, I would post online before pursuing further actions.
If he had withdrawn the 1000USD and claimed that he never received the monies, flew to my country and asked for the watch back and still had not refund me the deposit.
Could I have been scammed?!!
