HH1 Posted 30August, 2019 Report Share Posted 30August, 2019 Hi guys, I've negotiated with a gumtree seller to purchase a watch for 2k. I'm in Qld and the seller is in Bond Street, Sydney. I'm wondering if there is anyone here who would be willing to pick it up. I'll transfer the 2k to you. Cheers, Sohan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeM Posted 30August, 2019 Report Share Posted 30August, 2019 Make sure you do that mate, as I've been ripped off with a fake from Sydney before. Think the last name was 'Samoa' or something like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Sohan How confident are u with the seller and it’s authenticity? I am not bad with some watch brands and know a few watch dealers in cbd if u want them to have it checked whilst they do the transaction in their store. I have heard of some people recently having been robbed of the cash and no watch doing street based transactions. The store may just take a small fee for doing the authentication and transaction for u, might be good insurance.

I would definitely be doing this even some dealers have been known to sell the odd franken watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HH1 Posted 31August, 2019 Author Report Share Posted 31August, 2019 Thanks for that guys. After a little thought, I re decided not to go ahead. Hate to get a fellow PFA'er into a sticky situation. Some good advice from all of you. Cheers, Sohan GC9911 and Tips 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason A Posted 31August, 2019 Report Share Posted 31August, 2019 Some good advice, if it sounds to good to be true - it usually is HH1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
