just wondering why do you buy from hin when TD is 30% cheaper and non-TD is 50% cheaper?

I am actually curious about this (I am also from Germany)

Good Question, which i thought about myself before getting into this "watch/rep" thing.

Multipile reasons:

- I actually come from reddit in the first place, then i found this here, to almost every so called "TD" (on reddit) are multiple threads where something went wrong, questions where not answerd, the QC & Shipping details almost never matched up with what the TD tolds. Where i consider a Guy from for example china with a website where he has like almost every watch on earth listed and makes money by a big volume and is likely to tell you "white lies" to get the contract with i consider that here / with @mrmckhansi a little diffrent. When he fucks up / customs get the watch he guaranteed me/us (to some degree) that he will work out a solution wich iam happy with, if not, 2 bad reviews here and "he is done". So his repuation here is way more worth than xyz TD`s on reddit.

- He sells me a watch which is already in close proximity to me (EU, i obv know where he is shipping from but not sure if allowed to tell). So i avoid chinese shipping for 15-45 Days. Here i get a tracking number from "a local" company, no customs, easy peasy.

- I asked like 3 million questions which he all answerd very timely and professionell

- He (and i choose to belive that, i guess my first watch with him showed that) does check every watch he sells himself when its in EU, so there is a 2nd QC so to speak. Iam no expert and i find it helpfull to have someone else then me and xyz reddit randoms to QC it.

- Basicly it is service and safty, that has a coste, obv he does not do it cuz he is jesus, he makes money thru his service, which is find aslong as me as the customer thinks that this is important.

Basicly, you dont by 999,9 Fine Gold at market price, go to a jewler and tell them "forge me a chain", usally you buy a chain and u get 40 cents on €uro in Gold value, the other 60% is the storefront, the jeweler, the marketing so on and so on...

i consider a 30% markup for the service i get fair. Thats why i guy with him and not xyz site on the internet

Thank you for the updates. This kind of clear information is helpful.
I am from Europe myself and buying from China is just nerve wracking.
So paying a little more for piece of mind is also worth something.

Thanks for the reply. It is actually how I thought when I started this Hobby and I had to get comfortable with buying from china. I used seads uk stock in the beginning.

Over 40 reps later I can tell you the chinese service is just as good 😊
