Victoria Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 Appreciate comments and feeback. Hitting the Search button under "Scam sites", Prince, I found several threads with great info: Dax's recent comprehensive scam site list http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?s=&...st&p=376144 Jawo's scam site list http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?s=&...st&p=354592 E.g.: Bestswiss is on the former link. These aren't official forum lists or anything, but still good guides to help you out. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some sites that compared to dealers here are extremely expensive, but it would be too extreme to call them scammers. They deliver what they promise for the price they quote. They may well be 2 or 3 times higher than these dealers, but who knows their overhead etc. If people pay them, what can you say ? I don't want to sound like I'm defending them. I wouldn't deal with them now due to price, but the few I'm referring to were not scammers with me. Bestswiss was one example. When I first tried the rep hobby, I paid $ 800 dollars for a watch I could get for half that, but it was a good watch ( I had it looked at by a watch jeweler ), and they replaced a faulty watch without any hesitancy when I received a watch with a problem. That's all I can say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 And yet Bestswiss is now one of the worse ones out there. Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jfreeman420 Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 Their watches have 27 jewel movements and cost over $1,000. They must be good....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triplehd Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 There are some sites that compared to dealers here are extremely expensive, but it would be too extreme to call them scammers. Here's the way I see it (IMHO): 99% of those are scammers. I would even venture out and say 100% ever since finding RWG and the other watch forums. Why? Because I found more information about reps, who to trust, flaws, etc, when it comes to reps. Those other sites like to advertise a 27 jewel movement - which does not exist or Italian movements. Some, like bestswiss and their sister sites like to charge $800+ for a Sub rep when you can get one at a quarter of the price. So knowing that, in a way, they are a bunch of scammers pricing their watches 75% higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
