takashi Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 I will be very very worried buying from such website. You never know what/when will you get the goods. The pictures are of gen watch but it doesn't warrant you'll get that watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixbennetts Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 You go right ahead a browse all those non-rep-forum sites you want. Look at the pics, read the stats, but don't you DARE try ordering. Save the pictures and links, and sent them to your dealer here, see if they can get the same watch. Easy-peasy Lemon-squeezy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
he_haupt Posted June 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 yes I know, but I was really interested how they operate. for all who are interested in the conversation so far: Hello, My name is S. K. and I am the sales rep for Allegra Timepieces. It is very simple to purchase from us. The watch is available at the final price of : 1754 USD shipping included via FedEx with a guaranteed time of arrival of 3-5 days. Insurance is also included. All our products come from bank and customs confiscations including this watch. It is brand new with international warranty and has never been worn. We allow all our customers to inspect the watches prior to authorising the payment. You can take the watches to your authorised local dealers and have it inspected. To do this the payment is made under Google Checkout protection allowing you to inspect the watch prior to authorizing the funds to be sent to us. You will submit the payment to them via bank transfer and once the funds clear in their account we will ship the watch to the address your provide us. Once you receive the watch you have a 3 days period to take it to your local dealer , inspect it and confirm its authenticity. After you decide it you keep it or not and based on your decision you will be either fully refunded or will keep the watch. To do this you have a 3 days inspection period. Because we have a low stock and we already have 3 potential clients for this model I would like to ask you to let me know if you are 100% interested so I can book it for you and start the transaction. I would like to remind you that you will be buying a 100% authentic watch , never worn that you will be able to inspect it prior to authorizing the payment to be sent to us. If for any reason you will not be happy you will be fully refunded. Then I asked for a detailed descripion of the condition of the watch and I also asked for real pics and especially for a pic of the filled in papers... Hello, Orders are shipped from Switzerland. The transaction steps are : 1) you provide us with the shipping details ( full name and address ) and the reference number for the product and we start the transaction. 2) after the transaction is initiated the payment is sent to google in maximum 36 hrs using bank transfer. 3) once the funds clear we will ship the watch in maximum 48 hrs 4) after you receive the watch and inspect it ( you have a 3 days period ) you confirm if you are happy with the watch or not. If you want to keep it google will release the funds to us , if not you will be fully refunded after the watch is returned. Has anybody experiences with google checkout? is this a safe paying option? he Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takashi Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 Mate... forget it. It's something really fishy. The time given is too small... What make you sure that they will ship on time? Why this guy doesn't provide his bank account? Especially if you're in EU, I will insist on bank transfer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
