Settle down all please.
@ChiTownTony you may have been addressed in a direct way, but there's no need to become aggressive, that usually doesn't work out well. Let's be calm and continue discussing in a civilized manner.
RWI does not promote buying from non-TDs for good reasons, but we don't hinder anyone to make his own choices. I don't know how dhgate works but I'd advise to not use that as a platform to access dealers unless you're 100% sure whom you're talking to.
In any case, I'd rather use an RWI TD and avoid risks instead of endeavouring onto other paths, at least until I got so expert and knowledgeable to know the rep landscape very well. I'm not and thus I'll stay away from any non-TD regardless of his reputation.

I would also add, beware of positive non-TD reviews, take them with a pinch of salt and look at who is making them. Not saying this is one at all, mind you, just be wary and do some risk management. Many non-TDs have been known of promoting shilling on rwi.
DHgate and AliEx are so rife with shilling that you can’t trust 99% of it anymore. Just keep an eye out for broken English or nonsensical term such as “product arrival perfect, best quality, watch good friend, AAA+++, will buy more”…..I’m not sure what the word “friend” translates to in Chinese or Mandarin, but I’ve learned to stay away from sellers that use the term….thankfully it was other’s experiences from which I learned.

It's all good and thanks for responding.

I emailed geektime and he feels someone must have ripped off his pictures.
