Scammers

Respect is earnt not given. The same goes for trust; it takes time to build it up. In the meantime new members should join in with the conversations going on in the various discussions. This helps establish their reputation. I for one am wary of a new member with a low post count jumping straight in with a sales thread.

Kernow true , being involved is key also. I will give you guys an example of a member with no feedback that I would sell/buy to/from without reservation "cavi' been here just 6 months 352 posts, I know what he does for a living,what watches he bought (uses TDs) , and what watch his son wears. Others may not know him as well but as I am here a lot I do, if they contacted me in regard to do a deal I'd say "go".  It's not all about feedback on deals.

Right!!! But wait… I sent you $100 too!!! Wait… what?

In all seriousness, if you play smart and use your gut, that'll get you at least 90% there. There are great suggestions here and even greater lessons learn on this forum. When in doubt, send a PM to an established and respected member asking if they know anything about the individual in question. That should get you the remaining 10%.
