you have to be careful how you copy links. You cannot drag/copy ,, you have to left-click copy url
The threads are truncated , this is why dragging your cursor over a thread and copying it will not work.

OK. Here's the truth.
RepGeeks will never allow the Jandrew incident to be discussed in their forum.

Because Joshua & Andrew actually have been helping/backing/supporting/financing the RepGeeks forum.

I'd like to think of Jandrew as godfathers of the RepGeeks.

As above D4M's screenshots reveal, there were other dealer incidents at RG, but with Joshua & Andrew's opposition, some dealers could not even establish their dealership.

Moving on to TTK issue.
TTK was banned in RWI and RWG.
However, RepGeeks allowed TTK and now RG members are having the same problems.
Namely, you NEVER know when you will get your watches from TTK.
Honestly I have no idea what the deal was between TTK & RG Admins.
But obviously one can easily assume.

Finally, about more dealers.
We are currently working & communicating with a few of potential dealer candidates.
Very soon we will introduce more dealers to you.
Yes, they will be ETHICAL & TOP NOTCH.



Total bullshit.

J and A donated a couple watches for a raffle to help them off their feets when RG started,that was it,the 'support' you see in those screen shots was in reference to that,not that they paid or do currently pay repgeek,this is not the case.

TWP's issue was with dawg,TWP was also welcomed back as a dealer later and was selling there more than here,hmmm?....why was that?....

If J and A are in control at RG,then what are Sead,Stan,Socal,Ruby etc...all doing selling there?...why does J and A allow this?....

Lay off the shite guys,controlling noobs or those that don't follow the forums much is big here,i have been there myself,i know better now and thats why participating in this is over,let the latest new guys get brainwashed RWI style.

This is a forum that attacks thier own dealers and members that don't follow in line with thier views,RG is not,thats why they won't allow this publicity stunt on thier forum.

Simple as that,nothing more Sconehead,believe me.....seen it all.

Now is RG paying me now?....of course,right?.... :roll:

Nice to see you again Dave. You stated at RG that you'd logged off and ditched your password on RWI, I didn't think we'd see you again here. Do you think that the evidence we have been shown here is untrue? If so I personally would like to hear your view on things. As I recall you were the one who originally brought it to the boards attention and I actually went on the defensive for you but now, you've seem to have changed your opinion on it, have you found more info on the subject? If you have and don't want to speak publicly p.m. me...

Of course we bashed our own dealers.. Josh and Andrew....those price fixing "extra seals and gaskets installed" scammers.. now we've deleted their sections and banned them. You lie, threaten and scam and you get banned. RWI is now a better place.

Unfortunatly Dave, i think you are the only one thats truely brainwashed. I I dont know why you fail to see the truth here :)

Since RG doesnt want anyone to see the truth becasue they keep nuking posts and censoring everything as soon as its posted, all RG members are more than welcome to come over here and read everything and make their own decisions. I personally dont care if everyone on RG buys from Jandrew, good for them. They have nice watches and excellent customer service. We the staff here just DONT like their behind the scenes threats, price fixing and scamming and lying. We at RWI are here to protect the membership, and we wouldnt be protecting anyone if we allowed this "gangsterism" to continue.

Josh and Andrew were among the people that started RG. So there is NO WAY they are going to allow anyone to say anything bad about them. So i can understand their motives behind all the deleted posts and threads in the last couple days.. i can understand it, but i definatly dont agree with it :)

Lets just let everyone read the facts and come to their own conclusions. We're all adults here and im sure we can think for ourselves

There's, an ebb and flow on all the forums what's hot tomorrow is not today. Dave it's no great conspiracy. In fact Im sure in GZ it's common practice as is in corporate America. Im not brainwashed i spend as much time here as RWG and RG. All for different reasons. i call this my home and I like it becasue if a dealer is a hosebag, we can say it. If he's engaging in business practices that are questionable...we all looked at the evidence, we voted......and that's that.

I personally do not like the idea that I was going to be fleeced by Hont because another dealer was choking off his supply if he did not "conform" . It's just another way to squeeze more out of the consumer and Dave, your'e a victim too.

The admin here did what i feel is right and like i said in repgeek ewe all have every dealer bookmarked and is a click away. Want to steer a noob to a dealer? i have I swear by DSN for PAM. Because my personal experience was stellar.


Dave I'd like you to saty and rant all you want but don't take it our on all of us. I appreciate your contributions on the forums and hope to hear more from you.

As for the shitbag dealers, they give great service but it's at a premium price, hell they are borerline of the scum that ship Subs for $800.00 COD in my book. At least those guys are up front about being ripoffs.

Id rather pay a little less, forego the $100.00 extra gaskets and water proofing...Come on...even an person with minimal intellect can see through that one.

Just my fdeeling on it, RWI is becoming a repository or a J &A blog for how we feel about being fleeced. i think all they are taking the brunt of our negative energy becasue simply, they are in the crosshairs with the evidence being so damning

Holy Shite, I go to the lake for a couple days and everyone completely turns the corner and supports some truth here. Thank you to all our members for backing us up on this one.

If I bnever was presented with this evidence I would have screamed for bouncing them, even if I do not -atronize them. But Something muist be there, and I guess I am trusting that the Admin here presented all things as they are, and i have faith in that from my experience here.

well if they (RG) keep deleteing everything without explanation they will piss off a LOT of their members. Anytime you delete any thread you are asking for a whirlwind of shit, let alone constantly deleteing threads on a subject that everyone wants answers too...

True, at some point it looks fishy. In the interest of keeping the faith of members they let it ride. It has beena good thing.

I have a new found respect for the Admin there, I was wavering for a while. It's still somewhat biased but's that's my personal opinion.

We attack our members... hmmm... let's see... here is what dave123 had to say when it was announced d4m was retiring and I was taking over...

I'm glad he did,i just posted my good bye's in that joke of a forum...he is the only reason i hung around....

Backdoor dealing,backstabbing,unreal.

Good luck to Greg,good riddance to that forum,and Klink....

Dave123 also had this to say...

Nope,logged out for good yesterday,don't even know my password,nor want it...

good bye!....:rolleyes:

These quotes are from the same thread on repgeek... i had my account deactivated at my request on repgeek so i can't supply the link...

So... dave123 is still here... voicing his opinion as he wishes.... because we believe in an open forum... dave got a one day ban the other night for getting out of line... and he has officially been put on warning by me... but he is still able to post his opinion as long as he is respectful of others and of the forum...

You can call this forum a joke, you can call me a joke because this forum believe in open communication... but you had better respect the rules around here... there were many, many members who voiced their displeasure with the decisions being made... no attacks on them were seen, nor will they be seen...

So... why would dave123 be here if he thinks this forum is a joke... that the staff is a joke? Why did he go through the hassle of reclaiming his password? Well.. I'll let you figure that one out...

Yes, we did have the evidences of price gouging & threatening e-mails & PMs.
And yes, we did present the evidences as they were.
We did not manipulate anything, and we have never tried to present a biased view.

We know J&A were great dealers in terms of the actual watches and communication.
But we had to do what was best for our members.
They were jacking up the prices & fixing the prices by threatening other dealers whose prices were lower.

That is NOT right, and we couldn't just sit and watch what was going on.


Now One thing is clear, and PLEASE try to understand.

We have absolutely "NOTHING to gain" from removing them from our forum, but in reality quite a chunk to lose by removing "previously" considered the best dealers.

roflmao,, did this happen before I posted the screen prints of the collusion between J&A and Repgeek or after I posted them?
Either way... good for them.... membership needs to know the truth.

What is funny is that of all the information obtained/learned/put together.. all of our info.. is just hogwash when compared to how someone "feels" ..

and he said to himself....
[think:3m14ineq]What would a forum with only 2 dealers look like?[/think:3m14ineq]

And the other guy said...
[think:3m14ineq]Well.... it might be more obvious than it already is! Hmm... that makes sense.[/think:3m14ineq]

Dave keeps telling me he's seen it all before, but logic tells me there is no gain in discrediting these dealers...between this and my attempts at RG to try to discuss this is starting to make my head spin...if all the evidence is correct, which I think it is for the reason above, I feel this forum has acted correctly...time will tell when all the dust settles... :?

@sconehead..

even with no evidence at all... if you get the same story from several people, on several different occasions.. and holy hell... the damn thing makes a lot of sense (fits a better business plan for you (the dealer))
and given the fact that these dealers do not even know each other (established on several different occasions during interview process for dealing here)

Well.. if you cant add it up... well there is simply no help in the world that will help you figure it out. :lol:

anyway.. as pugwash said on RWG, this will blow over in a week or two and people will go back to their love affair..
is certainly a sad thing.. but probably true. But guaranteed that you will continue to hear the sucking sound coming from under the desk.

oh well.. all we can do is our best to bring things like this out.. it creates problems and accusations and is not pretty... but pretty damn necessary imo. Does this make Dealers and their followers happy with RWI ?? What do you think? lol
This is why you wont find the happiest dealers here on RWI.. RWI is probably not their favorite....
But that is ok... you want to know why?

RWI IS NOT HERE TO PROTECT THE DEALERS, INFORM THEM AND KEEP THEM FROM BEING SCAMMED!
But it seems that some people do not get this concept!

It's not that dealers are not appreciated, but we are a forum , For Members, to Protect Members, and Inform Members.

Wow,
so the mods (anubis) at repgeek are claiming that they are protecting the users there from flamewars, and cite other examples of topics they shut down like zoophilia.

hmmm... sounds like the bush administration... secrecy... censorship... protecting from moral degradation... protecting users from listening to baseless allegations and lies... saving the users from having to think for themselves...

runs pretty counter to the already counter culture hobby of rep collecting...

once again I have to say it.

THIS PLACE IS AWESOME BECAUSE PEOPLE CAN SPEAK THEIR MINDS

.... just a few steps away from being a scam site with raffles. That's right, a scam site with raffles. YAY for RAFFLES! YAY!

For the record once again...i said i don't know my password,and i still don't.

When i type my name into the login,my password automatically is entered like this *******.....just to clear up yet another word twisting....

Why am i looking in and showing up when bullshit is getting deep?....its kinda like watching the Simpsons...as silly as it is,its damn funny,but don't take it seriously..... :lol:

Yet another honest answer....twist away.... :wink:

And yes i got your pm,deleting it before wasting time with your yada yada....ban me,that will get rid of me,but save your pm's about banning me,shit or get off the pot,i'm done with this forum,like i said,but when its getting brown and deep,i'm here as long as my login works...i couldn't care less if it doesn't.
