Hi, guys…
I thought it would be welcome to remind you about the scam risks we all run with every new replica watch purchase. It’s disappointing hearing people talking about previous bad experiences related to scams. All of us, like it or not, are involved in a hobby that is not quite legal, after all. And a lot of dealers take advantage of the weaknesses of this field. The point is that it’s critical to remember that the risk of coming across a scam-my dealer is everywhere.
Who takes responsibility for a wrong purchase? Is it us because we don’t check enough information about the watch quality? Or, is it the dealers who disrespectfully are fouling people around, profiting from our naivety and lack of deep knowledge?
Honestly speaking, since I had my personal bad experiences with scammers, I became far more responsible. The idea is that the main responsibility falls on our own shoulders. We can never be sure of the person selling us a replica watch without checking the veracity of the information he gives to us about the fake item. Any m2m sale can’t be based on trust unless you proved for yourself the responsible attitude of the dealer. And it’s US who must conduct research, investigation, and validation each time we intend to buy a fake watch.
Unfortunately, many people tell me about plenty of bad experiences. Either they got an awful watch that by far doesn’t resemble the model they ordered, or the Chinese movement is breaking extremely fast, even though they had paid for a Swiss-made movement. And each time it happens, I wonder to myself: what did these people omit?!
When I’m trying to find out more info on the matter, most of them simply tell me that they never would have thought of being a scam victim. And that’s so sad that people haven’t realized yet that the scam existed and still exists at every corner.
So, what can every one of us do to prevent potential fraud? Yes, all of us have a bit of guilt in participating in the selling-buying process of replica goods purchase, which is not the most “legal” thing. But, considering that the replica industry is an existing fact and many of us accept being part of it, there must be something to protect us from being deceived.
The major step to make towards avoiding a potential scam is to do the biggest research possible. The more we know, the more armed we are. Be it forums, online stores, or websites, we always must dig as deep as possible about the person/dealer that offers us a replica watch for sale. Don’t stick to only the profile picture or the promising messages. Find out about the warehouse of the watches he is proposing. Ask for additional pictures every time you deal with a website offering fake watches for sale. Read as many reviews as possible. Maybe not all of them are real, but there sure might be some red flags suggesting us a potential scam.
Even on this forum, I have come across messages suggesting some bad previous experiences. It might sound tough, but don’t blame the scam dealer only. Try to answer yourself if u did enough investigation about it before ordering the watch. I know it’s painful to hear but in most cases, it’s us who rush into making an order without even checking some basic information about the store/dealer.
Take your time to dedicatedly investigate. And always make a purchase ONLY after answering ALL of the following questions:
-what’s the history of the dealer/online store?
-did u chat with a customer care representative? How did he/she respond to u?
-any hesitations in answering about the warranty?
-any hesitations in answering about the country of origin of the watch and its technical specs?
-did the additional photos of real watches satisfy you?
-is the price too cheap for the “extraordinary” watch?
Remember that you carry full responsibility for what you will get. And never forget that nowadays dealers are really trained in selling techniques. So, their primary goal is to make you BUY, regardless of what exactly you intend to buy. Be morally prepared to lose the money for the watch u plan to buy. This is another painful truth we have to accept once we accept being part of the replica industry. If you cannot afford a financial loss and think you won’t be able to get over it, then u better don’t do it. Because the risk is always present. Lucky those who buy indeed great imitations. But, I don’t think it’s only luck. It’s a good investigation of the source providing the watch behind the happy ending. So, if you want a happy ending too, be wiser than scammers and educate yourself on the matter.
Hope for no scams in your future purchases!
