Kenberg, please read my PM to you. Thanks, Floris

The voice of reason. Ken, he's right, its too sentimental, its the thought that counts! Thanks though my friend! Floris

Good stuff

Its truly amazing! Hope that 'free beer deal' for everyone is still open slay,

HOLY CRAP!! HAPPY ANNIVERSARY MY MAN!! See, we should have an Anniversary Calender too! How many years if I may ask???? CONGRATS!!

It's insane. Have you seen the support I'm getting.....unbelievable.

......Ok.......now Im speechless....seriously.....this is too much guys. You are breaking up collections and personal funds over my misfortune. Your words, your motivation and encouragement were MORE than I could have expected. This truly is too much, I mean it. I felt ashamed of what had happened, that it was my stupid fault that I used TNT, and considered to stop collecting even. However with all your words, PM's, posts, offers, donations, and support in general I will never stop. Ken, I am speechless, but couldnt leave this thread untouched. I cannot believe it and once again, I will never forget this. Thanks to all of you.... Floris

Indeed, its amazing what a community this is! Thanks to all Floris

I was just thinking about this statement made. I was just wondering (no flames starting from this please), why you did not have it insured? I realise insurance for a 5k item is a lot, but Im just curious as its not an illegal item, or did you figure that stating it was worth so much would increase the attention drawn to the item of being inspected and stolen? Although you would have insurance coverage. Also, in regards to what slay said; I believe it's purely a passion. Just like watches. Although you cant modify a coin like you can a watch, it stands for something. Whether it be history, whether it be power or whether it be an investment. Possibly even sentimental reasons/purposes. Anyway, I found it interesting. And on a seperate note thanks for all the support. Best regards, Floris

I dont believe a word from his PO auction, this is especially good: so hes selling for a friend for a charity apprently, with offshores 'buyer question' response from him?

Thanks guys! Im stubborn....remember?

Hahaha, you mean "we are on fire", although it could be seen as "we are evil", haha I know its the first one though! No doooooooubt!

Unbelieveable, it seems its a bad week. I hope your issues are resolved as well as mine are being supported! One thing, its usually a lose/lose situation if you pay up, they will probably not release the account but request for more as you are then seen as "willing to pay". I hope all goes well ans wish you the best. Floris

WOW! Look at all the members! Its cool to think that so many are (hopefully) staying away from scam sites and that so many have transferred from the old RWG. Keep 'em coming but most of all...post!! All the best, Floris

Its amazing and Im feeling much better. Though that feeling in your throat of someone taking your belongings is quite 'disturbing'. Anyway, I hope to try and put it in the past! Thanks to all, Floris

Very true! And of course thanks SubFrog, I appreciate it! Floris

Thanks Johnny. Indeed, was a shock but the support is amazing! I felt embarrassed and stupid for posting what had happened, but wanted others to know that nothing of the postal services can be guaranteed, even after customs. Thanks for your words. Floris

Thanks so much, you guys made my day, my week, month, my whole replica experience better than I could have hoped for, honestly, I mean that!! Love your signature and avatar by the way! Again thanks to all, Floris

Richard, thanks for your kind words and PM's, I really appreciate all your support! Thanks again to all, Floris

Absolutely necessary indeed. I will try to donate immediately on the 1st of May. Thanks Richard. Floris

Thanks so much. The thing is, I have a P.O. Box in the netherlands that doesnt go through customs and is out of reach from the state. The only thing is it takes AGES to get to me. I was going to have it shipped there but figured, China to the netherlands = 7-10 days Courier to Venezuela (every friday only via airmail, if it reaches the courier in holland on a monday, it goes on friday...if it reaches on a tuesday, you have to wait a whole extra week til next friday) = 7-12 days (depending on time of arrival to the courier) So that could mean 3 weeks. well I COULDNT wait. I wanted to show friends and family what I bought with my birthday money and I wanted to find you guys another contact and contribute in terms of watches for once with a review and or pictures. So I figured that TNT with guaranteed delivery of 7 days from China and no customs problems with TNT here was a good option. Great pic! and thanks so much for the support!!

Thanks so much Edge. I will contribute to the RWG forum as soon as I get some funds together again. I will receive my pocket money at the end of the month and the least I can do is contribute in that way. It was stupid to invest all my money into that watch order, true, very stupid, but as it was birthday money I assumed "I can afford to lose the money as it wont get me into financial debt", well it didnt get me into DEBT, but its quite an emotional obstacle to know that someone ripped open and stole something that belongs to you, but as an employee doesnt KNOW who he steals from and again as mentioned before, probably needs to feed his family through things like these... I appreciate all your help and all your efforts, from all of you! You are all dear friends, and I mean that. I hope to have a beer with you all some day! Floris

Thanks Richard for your help! Indeed you are very right, if it wasnt for this none of us would be able to help eachother out. I do hope that my thread is not seen as a 'money grabbing' technique but as an honest thread for all to notice the dangers of using a secure or 'verified' company such as TNT, FedEx, UPS. There are dishonest people everywhere and one should be aware of the consequences. I never thought once of a package that goes through customs from the other side of the world without a single problem, to arrive at my house empty with the plastic watch wrappers still in the box ripped to pieces with force. A $40 service that is. Anyway, another rant I think, but thanks to all of you, true family and I WILL NOT FORGET IT!

Guys, I just want to thank you all again. However, obviously I am not depending on others to clear my mess up as result of this misfortune on my part! I am very thankful to all those willing to give me a little jump start, all those who wouldnt take a "no", persistence persistence and calling me stubborn, haha. Thanks so much to each and every one of you for taking the time to post as well. I appreciate it and I wont stop saying it!! All the best!! Floris

Thanks Colin!! I appreciate it, I really do! Means a lot!! And to all you I havent thanked in one way or another......THANKS!!!
