Are you ready to make a deal?
The major two rules of the Internet
- If an offer sounds too good to be true: It might just not be true!
- Buy the seller, not the watch!
Remember to choose a registered company with an own website
- referenced on » SwissManufactures
- providing best references worldwide
- promoting its watches on various websites
- having a wide selection of different manufacturers
- offering comparable pricing to other dealers
- featuring various contact options like email & phone
- allowing personal pick up of watches in their offices
- emailing from addresses which are identical to their own website
- sending out individual pictures fast
- enabling different payment methods
- having an 'Imprint' and a detailed ‘General Terms and Conditions Act’
Little-known facts to also help you on your way
- Be careful with sellers using 'free' E-Mail accounts such as yahoo, hotmail, aol etc.
- Always check the phone-number given in the ad. Is it working? Is it forwarded to a mobile phone? Is the person on the other end 'trustworthy'?
- Never ever pay for a watch via Western Union
- Do not pay for a watch via bank-wire to a service pretending to be 'Google Checkout' / Google Checkout does not offer payment via bank-wire (only via credit-cards)
- Do not buy via an escrow service that claims to be affiliated with any website
- Never pay money in advance to a seller offering transaction handling through an escrow-service by Royal Mail
- Watch out for spoofed escrow-sites (sites or emails that look like DHL or TNT but are not the real deal)
