Whatever123 Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Hi! I bought a watch from PrDubis on 2009/12/31, paid via PP on the same day. PrDubis told me, he would ship on the next monday, which would have been January the 4th. Well, nothing has arrived yet and shipping from France to Germany should be much faster. I wrote two PM to PrDubis and got no reply from him (although he HAS been online in the meantime). I also realized he has a lot of watches on offer in the trade section... seems to be a dealer. So, what's going on? Is this a scam? Any other members that have actually received a watch from him? Cheers Whatever123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nakortheblue Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Hmm... Sounds a bit dodgy. You might want to check with the staff. They mentioned about similar activity some time ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whatever123 Posted January 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 (edited) Hmm... Sounds a bit dodgy. You might want to check with the staff. They mentioned about similar activity some time ago. I just sent him another PM and will give him a chance to answer. If he doesn't, I'll get in touch with the staff and even Paypal. I still hope this turns out good... Edit: He just replied... said he shipped last Monday and seemed a little [censored] off that I threatened to inform the admin staff. Well, I can understand that - but on the other hand, had he just replied to one of my previous two PM, I wouldn't have got suspicious. Especially because he was online every day. Anyway, maybe I just expect too much... let's wait and see if the watch arrives. Edited January 13, 2010 by Whatever123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miket900 Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 I am also waiting on a package from PrDubis and he hadn't answered a PM, however he did get back to me today at 2pm saying that the mail had been delayed a bit due to the snow. Fingers crossed for both of us huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miket900 Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 I took that more as a comment on the dealers using the wrong forum I guess. I've bought aa Milgauss that he bought from Eurotimez in October or something, pics show wear consistent with this, a bit worried about this now due to the time involved, I could've driven to France a collected it quicker, even with the snow.

prdubis Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 Hi there, just discovering this thread about me... I am NOT a dealer, I actually have sold most of the watches I had bought those months/years, and some were unworn as they did not look as I was expecting to... You can have a look at the sales section, most of my sales have good feedback... I am having a dispute with miket900 as he is not happy with the Milgauss I have sold him...I am really sorry to hear that, and I understand he is disapointed but this watch was WORN, and the scratches were visible on the pics I have posted...

Aside from the delivery time which was due to our crazy weather, I have to say that all communications with PrDubis have been nice and friendly. Yes, I'm a bit dissapointed about the AR on the Milgauss, but perhaps I shot from the hip a little on my PM to him in hindsight!! The watch was actually really good value! But Dubis, I'll PM you. I'd deal with again, put it that way - just not when it's snowing!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whatever123 Posted January 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 Well, finally I also received my watch. Shpping time from France to Germany: 4 weeks... This is ridiculous - but I guess French postal service is to blame and not PrDubis. Communication with him was nice and friendly and I would definitely buy from him again. Thumbs up!

lanikai Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 Nice to see everything came out on the top side Seems like postal deliveries are being delayed all over the globe lately.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
