Have you contacted all of the dealers?

i was hoping someone else might have experiance with this watch and could point me in the right direction without spamming all the TD's :) Then again, since they all buy from more or less the same place i guess a couple might be enough... :)

I usually buy from Sead (Supermirrors). Just send him email with this picture, he offers triangle shipping and 5% discount on WU just like many dealers. This should be enought to cover WU fees.

Thanks, ill give him a try :)

The WU fee is ~15%, so it dosnt even get close to covering costs, especially when you consider you are taking the cost from the seller (who always covers the transfer fee in other cases) and that you are throwing away any kind of security if the seller/product goes missing along the way.

Personaly i would gladly pay an extra 10% on top of list price to be able to use my amex rather then using WU, getting 5% of list price but ending up paying the same due to fees >_<

You will be satisfied, he's a great guy. ;) In this case it covers about half of costs if watch is about $250-300 but I'm not sure if dealers cover paypal fees if you pay by PP. I was paying him with paypal few months ago, I don't know if he still accept it. It would be best to ask him. ;)

This one: [email protected]
I'm in contact with him all the time and it works fine, just buying few watches and getting responses every day or two.

Its out of stock at the noob factory it seems, but i managed to get hold of one, not sure if its good luck, or bad luck and it might be a fixed return... Oh well, time will tell!

Promise to post pics when it arrives and let you all be the judges!

I tried to buy cocaine on my MasterCard because I wanted the security of the cc company in case it turned out to be talcum powder...

Dealer refused and wanted cash - can you believe that?

Man you must have made that dealer mad because I just paid him with Paypal and he gave me joint as a discount.

That is one good looking watch. I didn't know that factories were now putting red wax (tamper proof seal) on casebacks.. First time I have ever saw that.
