  1. This is a good example on why it's important to use a major credit card as your source of PayPal funds rather than your bank account. Hopefully the OP did just that... Filing a dispute with PayPal may not be favorable, and you could file a dispute with your CC company. 9 times out of 10, the CC dispute will get your funds back.
  2. Can you tell us what winder it is, or provide a link? I searched eBay for 24 watch winder as suggested, but nothing similar to this in the results.
  3. Absolutely, Mike. Had it been presented in that manner, I would have upgraded without hesitation and felt very confident in the TD for being up front about it. Sent from my HTC One M8 via Tapatalk
  4. That's fine if the factories operate that way. They provide a product, they can do what they want as long as demand drives it. However, it's not ok for a TD to try and pass off the same watch 3 times, then ask the customer to pay more if they want it corrected. Regardless of the factories practice, a TD should practice ethically if they want to remain "Trusted" imo. Sent from my Kindle Fire HD using Telepathy
  5. It's a Ploprof V1.5. It's been available for a couple of years. The pics on the website are fine, and QC pics aren't. If they'd have said it was a known issue after the first time I pointed it out, I'd say it wasn't shady. But trying to pass off the same watch 3 times, then telling me I need to pay more to get the correct version? That's an absolute bait and switch... I have the money for the better version, and will opt for it from another dealer. But I will not reward dishonesty. No one should. Sent from my KFJWI using Tapatalk
  6. Thanks, Mike. If this dealer refuses to refund, or shorts me in any way. I'll notify you. Appreciate your assistance.

  8. Thanks. Mike has already reached out to me about this, and I thank him for doing so. I'm hesitant to post who the dealer in question is, as I believe it can be resolved by a refund. Many other people trust this dealer and have great experiences. Mine, not so much. If Mike chooses to out the TD, so be it. I trust his judgement. If the TD refuses to refund me, then I'll be posting the details on every Rep forum I know of.
  9. No, not AD photos. QC photos from their own process.
  10. I'm extremely upset right now. After emailing a TD, and confirming a particular watch was in stock, I placed the order. 3 days go by and as most of you may remember, the first QC pics they sent were of another persons order. I rejected the wrong order, of course, they apologize and ask me to wait patiently. 5 days go by and they send me QC pics of my watch order. There were some issues, most notably one issue being the date wheel was facing the wrong direction and reading horizontally rather than vertically as it should. I point out the flaw, and reject the watch. They apologize and ask me to wait patiently. 5 days go by, and I receive new QC pics. It's the exact same watch with the exact same flaw. I of course reject this watch again, and point out that they sent me pictures of the same watch with the same flaw. They apologize and say the maker made a mistake, and they will get it corrected. "Please be patient", they say... Now, another 6 days have passed and I get new QC pics today. Except, they're not new pics at all, it's the EXACT SAME WATCH AGAIN!!! I politely reject by saying "it appears you're unable to find the correct watch, please refund my money". To which they respond, "we are so sorry that since it's a cheap model ,the maker can't deliver us one with centered datewheel." and they tell me I can upgrade my purchase if I want the correct version... I ask what the price difference is, and they send me a link to a version that's $250 more than what I purchased, and a completely different color. Are you kidding me? So this TD told me they had the watch in stock, I paid them. They couldn't provide the watch they said they had, and now they want me to send them another $250 to get it corrected with a variety of the watch I didn't order or want? I've now asked for a refund. I'm wondering if I should report this TD to the Mods or Admins? How is this acceptable behavior by a "Trusted" dealer? It's like going to a restaurant and ordering a sirloin medium rare. They bring it out and it's well done. You ask them to fix it, and 2 more times they bring you the same steak. Then they say "our chef can't cook sirloin correctly, we suggest you get a better steak, try this Kobe beef instead, it's 3 times the price of your sirloin"... Why would I trust you to deliver the higher end version when you couldn't get the one I ordered correct? 5 years I've been buying reps, and NEVER had a problem like this. Maybe I've been lucky, but I really think this TD is just a liar and a cheat.
  11. Did you at least get a partial refund or something for their errors? Really sorry for your experience. Sent from my HTC One M8 via Tapatalk
  12. Received "new" QC pics this morning... Same watch, same issue... Really disappointed in this TD. I've asked for a refund now. I'm probably never going to use this TD again. Sent from my 831C using Tapatalk
  13. Got an email from Angus yesterday saying they would be out until May 5th.
