Corgi Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 You'd have to be a real dunce to believe that. And people do. I shouldn't sound so proud myself, though, I was very close to paying hundreds upon hundreds of dollars for one of their "Grade 1 swiss made" watches...

crystalcranium Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 I'm flashing back to my horror and disbelief at how I had been scammed over the years when I arrived at RWG. I paid $600 for a lousy blue Sub from Buydesignerwatch.com and spent hundreds for asian 21js that I could have paid $88 for. It makes my blood boil. These sites are credit card and shipping friendly and suck in the neophyte who thinks $850 for something that is functionally a Rolex is a bargain.

Mickey Padge Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 That is one fugly watch I would not buy it, even if it was replicated to perfection by our trusted dealers here................. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Physher007 Posted May 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 @CC - I feel your pain. Though I consider myself luck, because I did receive a watch and it did have an ETA in it. Ofcourse it also had 3 dial markers fall off within the first 3 months. What I find to be the most absurd is the way they try and convince people that the only smart way to buy is with COD...

I have to say I am really lucky.. RWG 1 was the first site I stumbled onto upon gaining interest in this hobby. Just did a google, read through several of the sites that came up, and settled on that one. It is a shame (although I agree it may be necessary) that we may need to make this less google friendly going forward.. I may have never found this place.

Polynomial Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Fullswiss = Blufakes cartel Absolute scammers and I hope they burn in hell!! Why? I think it is fair one has to be reasonably clever or reasonably rich (or both) to get a nice watch. Stupid people and their money is likely to part easily.
