I’ve made an order a few days ago with Andrew for a VSF OHMSS. He told me that the watch was in stock and out of this raid stuff, but I’m a bit worried

keep us updated, please ;)

Probably kill them off... Or throw them in a hole for ever... Or take a big fat bribe and give a slap on the wrist..

I got told bribe wasn't possible this time because Guangzhou police wasn't operating the investigation.

In my experience bribe is always an option.. it may just be a lot more expensive then usually..

It may be the best thing for factorys, for TDs, and for you as customer which have your adresses in all those TD databases, to STFU and end this thread until its over.

Yeah, because you wouldn't want the Chinese authorities to track you down and start extradition proceedings. Or if that fails, sending over one of those hit squads that they use to mop up purchasers of counterfeit goods.

You don't have to take me for full, I don't care :) Of course, I don't mean it the way you interpret it. But everything is (!) A rumor, whether it is the regional police behind it, a larger organ of the Chinese government, or the paid counterfeit police officers (or whatever they are called) from the original manufacturers. In any case, if the customs pass your data on to a manufacturer, then some Chinese authority or institution will do the same. So you could simply minimize the risk of a raid on a TD by not feeding the forum (which is public) with information that is based on rumors and which could possibly harm TDs.

Everyone as he wants in the end.

maybe it got lost in translation?
Maybe they meant, RAISE happening, prices being raised..


IMHO I don't buy this type of news, its another attempt to RAISE prices arbitrarily...

Andrew just emailed me saying that the watch is actually out of stock.
considering the situation I’ve asked him a refund
