kitersoze Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 i got this PM from idolreplicas on my youtube account, because i'm assuming they're studying users' "subscriptions" and view and/or comment list (and i've been viewing rep watch vids lately): " Hi，message from Idolreplicas Hi，message from Idolreplicas Dear, We, idolreplicas, are professional high end Replica watch dealer years into replica business world.

Shundi Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 I've had stuff like that before...sucks for those who haven't found this site yet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalame Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 i can't help but find it somewhat comic that those that are the very best at marketing and spamming are the dishonest scam sites. i got the same message. idolreplicas/watcheden isnt a scam site, they are very thrustworthy and an approved dealer at rwi. i got 2 watches from them, they might not sell top quality, but everyone needs 1-2 cheap reps and btw, i find them much more comfortable, than pm'ming some dealer back and forth, asking for pics, price details and stuff till i can finally order.

greg_r Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 Idolreplicas is Tonyxkf/WatchEden - a long-established and trusted dealer - as the previous poster said, he's a forum dealer at RWI and also has a CQout shopfront with a very good feedback rating. Idolreplicas was always Tony's "pull in the punters" site (he also owns Rolex2u.com) and he markets it pretty aggressively. It's a shame he's decided to spam YouTube users with it, but I guess things are tight atm. However, I've bought from him on several occasions and he's both helpful and reliable, so don't start assuming he's a scammer - he isn't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 All the usual spammer warnings aside, anyone considering doing business with Idolreplicas (or any of there numerous other alias sites, which are too numerous to name) should read this 1st.

kitersoze Posted November 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 hey, got it. some of you guys know, trust, n done biz with him?, cool. didn't mean to cast dispersions directly at him, just the scam sites in general that seem so slick and well-practiced at what they do. and to tell the truth, the scam sites (and the companies with their ever-changing umbrella of scam site names) are too numerous fr me to keep straight in my head. i thought idolreplica rang a bell from one of the many threads i've read recently. plus, the youtube PM and the wording of the message: it totally read like those other sites i was so tempted to try when i first started to look into reps. it's a sad statement of our society (or maybe just me) that my initial reaction is to distrust what i read and am presented with from someone trying to do some business... but after my own due diligence, reading the horror stories of consumer/complaint boards, and corresponding with other members here about how they finally got to rwg, i know from where my skepticism comes...

Bibbs Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 I tend to shy away from spammers. Through the letterbox, and my email. I hate it, so I put my custom elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
