                        not to rub salt to the wound...i was thinking if one is to purchase an expensive item online...we need to ask for 5 or more references. (i bought items before that cost less than $600 and once a $7K watch online). To be safe, i'll ensure that the addresses are not all gmail/yahoo/hotmail sort that can be easily created. I'll ask sellers to provide those with company email addresses ie XXXX@sbcglobal.net. In this way, we'll know that he can't fake so many company addresses all at the same time. I would also check the company website to verify that there's indeed such a company ie ww.SBCglobal.com/.net in the example above.

                        just my humble opinion for those who intend to purchase online in future.

                        cheers

                          DO NOT wire any fund to overseas seller!!

                          I would definitely share my experience with fellow members here to prevent anyone follow my footstep! Now the admin of connectingwatches had taken action and edited all this seller's posts. Stay tuned!


                          In the meantime i don't know if any bros here heard of the USD36K rock?

                              yeah,thats the one..not true? This case involved 2 very reputable parties leh..even Yeo also replied in the thread. Now that US seller was banned from watchnet..i noticed he also no longer selling /activities since last year november.I heard abt the same seller email threatening emails to buyers challenging buyer into fight. In fact i have spoken to this seller before on the phone..over a rolex watch.
