seanburke33@gmail.com Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Has anyone had any luck with this seller? I placed an oredr a couple of weeks ago and have not seen my watch. Communication was very good prior to placing the order now I cannot get any response what so ever. I know they are a trusted seller on here wondering if that staus has been validated recently.

Cromag Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 He's good. His website just got seized so that might be why you have not heard from him. He'll pro'ly respond to this thread though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whoever Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 normally you receive a tracking number after a while....but takes some time to come from China to wherever you live....relax, have a beer, and don't think about it for a couple of weeks.

dannesyd Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Torobravo is a fantastic dealer and an ace guy, so don't worry! But do have in mind that it has been Chinese New Year for over a week and will continue to be so this week as well (meaning all of china is pretty much shut down). That might be one reason to why your not getting replies. When did you place your order? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolexman Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Toro exceeded my expectations. No worries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asciwhite Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 If there is ONE seller you certainly can trust. It is ToroBravo!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpz5142 Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 +1 to what these guys said. Toro is a good guy, but Chinese New Year celebrations last for probably another week. Then the shippers will have to catch up to all of the orders that have pilled up over the holiday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archetypal Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 I'm not sure that using your email address (if it is real) as your forum handle is a good move! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightwatch Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 He´s one of the best and no worries at all. Often has stock, if no stock and You have a special request/sold-out watch might take weeks for him to look for it. On top CNY. Write Toro one or 2 mails asking for the status (not 10 mails) wait some days and he´ll come back to You. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormTooper4 Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 agreed is a stand up guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archetypal Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 (edited) I am lucky enough to have met T in person on numerous occasions. He's a super nice, knowledgable guy, runs a tight operation, always stands by his watches and has been in the game for years. He also shared a shanghai based watchsmith with me who has never let me down either, on the contrary takes on anything and is amazingly affordable.

mikewatch Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Agreed 100% Toro always come thru.. one question tho, this is my first CNY.Did Toro's site really get seized again or does he take it down during CNY?I'm just getting a blank screen but it doesn't look like a takedown warning as it did several months ago, more like he disabled it temporarily?

hambone Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Nice to see so many positive sentiments for Toro Bravo. I've not had the opportunity to deal with him yet. So many good words written about him inspires confidence, to be sure. It is Chinese New Year which I only know as a one day affair. Year of the horse. Last year , (the snake), was not the best, but worst year of my life. Seems like things are better this new lunar year. I wish everyone happiness and prosperity. Also, saddle up hop on your horse and run like the wind!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpz5142 Posted February 10, 2014 Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 Still waiting for my order tracking from over 2 weeks back no reply either to email. Most of china is only today returning to work after the Chinese New Years celebration. ie: all of china basically shuts down for two weeks.
