Any info on www.collectorstime???

[jazz_samz]

Hiya.... A friend recently asked me about this site... They are based in Malaysia.. He is asking me about whether its safe and reliable blah blah blah....

Anybody bought from them before? Hary, you posted something before refering to this site.. u bought anything from them before?

Want to know how trustworthy are they etc... Hope brothers who have any experience with them can share share...

Cheers...

[Hary]

Collectorstime is top notch. Buy with confidence. I dealt with them twice, face to face

You can catch very good pieces at their site, especially when USD is weak

Few bros from this forum also bought from him

[jazz_samz]

bro when u said face to face, u met him (zeetan) in KL? Do you go to a svc center in KL to authenticate yr purchase?

[Hary]

I met Zeetan in Singapore and his business partner in KL. No, I didn't go for authentication. I think people in the watch industry (big ADs) knows him pretty well, and internationally he's well recognized watch seller

Hiya Hary,
Cool... thanks for sharing your experience...

His pricing on his web is in USD, u pay him in what currency? USD, MYR or SGD?
U arrange for the transaction to be in Singapore? or he offered?
Did you manage to haggle / ask for discounts on his item for sale?

SOrry to ask so many qns..

Bro,

i dealt with Zeetan before...his watches are authentic...bought once from him and sent it for authentication and the watch was original.

he doesn't give discount so no need to haggle on prices. you can meet him face to face in KL and pay him $ to save credit card fee and shipping cost.

btw, not all his watches are cheaper...go for those special price timepieces..again, do research first and compare prices before buying from him....

cheers

What James said is correct, his prices are not always the best. I suggest you to subscribe to his newsletter and you will be informed if he has new pieces. Often he has special prices for some models. For some brands such as Ananimo, his price is unbeatable

[jazz_samz]

So you guys pay him in USD? or the converted amount in SGD or MYR?

Sorry for my silly qns.. kekeke

[Hary]

I paid him in USD, TT to his bank account in Malaysia.

In one occasion, I TT him the money today, and collected the watch from him the day after in KL, as by chance I was there. Even the money was not in yet, he trusted me and passed me the watch. His prices are firm, but for repeated customers, he usually waive the freight costs (shipped by Fedex)

[jazz_samz]

Ok.. understood. Thanks Hary for your patience... James too for sharing your experience.

Will pass on these info to my friend. I think I too am eyeing something there.. will probably ask my KL buddy to make the purchase for me and pass it to me when he next comes to Singapore.
