Hi,
I used to buy some watches on iOffer from time to time. But it seems it's not as interesting as before, pricewise.
There were some good dealers (some of them became dealer here or on other boards). The difficulty is to know who's in front of you, as there are as many scammers as there are good people.
I'd be interested in some comments about recent purchases there... or on cqout.

So, of the Reps you purchased were the transactions smooth ? What about the quality? Can you trust their feedback system? It's just that the prices seem a lot lower than the trusted sellers here. But are we comparing apples to apples?

Buying reps on iOffer is hit and miss, I once scored an ETA Ti Rep for $110 shipped [in the US] on iOffer because the guy just didn't want it anymore, the dealers have it for $350. All I'm saying is that I had a huge amount of luck, this is a rare occurrence. My advice is to avoid iOffer, the dealers here can get you the same watches they have on iOffer. Don't believe the lies in iOffer, I see a lot of people advertising Asian for Swiss, like the 7750 chronos.

I suggest you to look up the trusted dealership under the dealer section. I have heard several negative comments about ioffer. Good luck!

Mostly crap and rips offs nowadays.

+1 on that. I have bought a few reps from iOffer in the old days, but I would not do that now. If you receive a POS you are stuck with it as compared to buying from our trusted dealers. Or from Fakey! :wink:

I've bought several watches via iOffer & CQout, but that was some time ago when decent dealers could still be found there (Time4Direct used to have an iOffer storefront & Watcheden were active on CQout - as were several other good dealers).

These days, however, iOffer & CQout are mostly populated by fly-by night outfits, junk merchants and the seriously overpriced.

With the wide range of dealers available to the rep forums these days, I really don't know why you would need to go to iOffer - you certainly won't find anything there that you couldn't find from a trusted dealer here or on the other rep forums for the same price or less.
