Hey everyone. I'm not sure if this belongs in this forum or somewhere else, but I just wanted to let everyone (especially noobies like myself) know about my experience with TrustyTime.

About two weeks ago, I attempted to order a watch through the Trusty website using a credit card. The purchase initially went through / my card was charged, but I received a follow up message from Andrew stating that there was an issue on the processing end and that he needed to refund the purchase, and to expect that refund within 14-21 business days. My initial instinct (keep in mind, this was the first order I'd ever made for a rep watch) was SCAM!! I contacted my credit card company just to make sure that options were available to me should that refund not come through. After being assured that yes, I would have recourse if things didn't work out, I decided to wait and see if the refund came through.

Anyways, long story short, I received the refund a couple of days ago (I did find myself out about 10 dollars but not big deal, think its probably related to currency exchange rates or maybe processing fees). SO, I guess my point is, for anyone else that finds themselves in a similar situation, don't panic. Seems like it's just part of the myriad of issues that can arise when purchasing a rep watch. Thanks to everyone on these forums for all their help and the knowledge they share. And thank you to Andrew for the refund / sorry for having harbored doubts in my mind!

Glad it worked out for you. But buy with confidence when using a TD from this forum. I've only bought from Trusty Time and Andrew has always delivered. They seem to be having issues with visa cards right now. Ask Andrew for alternative payment methods. Good luck on your first purchase.

I think there is issues with all forms of credit card payments right now , I tried to pay last week with 3 different combination of visa and mastercard all with an error notice, then I just decided to use western union and save a percentage anyway.
