Dear bros and sisters of the community,
Do you sometimes experience this?
You've sold off your watch and indicate that it has been sold on the sales thread but persistent buyers still text you to enquire if the watch is still available.
In recent weeks, I have received plenty of interested enquiries AFTER my watches have been sold and although I appreciate enquiries as a seller, it can get quite frustrating if it seems that the general watch buying populace can't read and understand simple words that the watch has been sold.
Of course, what's also more frustrating is I don't get queries on the pieces that have not been sold but that's a different thing altogether : )
Anyways, back to the issue at hand; I almost got into a spat today with one of these potential buyers asking about a watch I sold and I told him that my watch has been sold, please read thread updates so that we don't waste each other's time.
He retorted that there was no indication that my watches has been sold (that I make it a point to do one a watch has been sold)!!!
Curiously, I probed and asked him where he saw my sale threads and his reply was...
..."SGWATCHMALL", a forum that I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF BEFORE AND HAVE NEVER POSTED A SINGLE WATCH FOR SALE BEFORE!
Incensed, I searched and found this 'sgwatchmall' website and indeed, a number of my recent watches posted for sale on this forum have also been placed on sale there, COMPLETE WITH MY CONTACT DETAILS!!! I didn't place my watches for sale on this forum and I certainly couldn't have done this in my sleep...
Anyway, on this fourm, there are no updates to the sales threads there when a watch has been sold, so eager buyers approach sellers who's watches have already been sold yonks ago and the misunderstandings begin between two parties, hurling accusations at each other.
Before I seek clarification and seek an explanation from sgwatchmall, I would like to ask if any other sellers have experienced similar happenings in recent times...continued enquiries on your sold watch despite updating the community that it has been sold?
If yes, a quick search for sgwatchmall might explain why and maybe, an explanation could also be due from them as to why sales threads placed in this forum might also be found on their forum...
I mean, I appreciate any help in selling watches but it doesn't really help much when it is done without the sellers permission and it causes misunderstandings between potential buyers and sellers or lead to other complications, agree?
Peace out and cheers! And do check out my sale threads before their sold, not after! ; )
