Please see our ChronoTrader Policies and Terms of Use. | Learn more about How To Include Photos In Your Postings. |
Rules: Postings must be an ad announcing an intent to sell, buy or trade. Full item description and photo(s) must be posted within the message here, not as links to other websites. Links to online auctions and other sites: Links to online auctions, dealer sites or other listings of items are permitted, but you should be careful to ensure that such listings will comply with our other ChronoTrader Policies. In addition, we request that sellers linking to online auctions or listings offer some benefit or accomodation to ChronoTrader readers (for example, some discount or an undertaking to end an auction early, to keep a watch "in the family"). Photos must be of the actual item for sale in its present condition. No counterfeit or replica products. No post for the same item may be repeated within 7 days, except to lower the asking price. Commercial dealers are limited to three unique posts per day. [More...]
There seems to be ABSOLUTELY NO ATTEMPT at curbing scammers here folks. I would be suspect of EVERY SINGLE SELLER on here. Cross reference their email address to see if they're on other forums. Also, DOUBLE CHECK their email address and scammer use similar looking email address (such as watchsellers@nothing.com instead of watcherseller@nothing.com...note the missing "s" at the end). Get as much information as you can. If they ask for a Western Union transfer, they are scammers. If they want wire, contact the bank they want you to wire to and make sure that their info and the bank's info matches up. Note that with wires, there is practically NO recourse to recovery. No government agency will give you the time of day to investigate wire fraud unless it's a large ($100,000+) sum of money. The banks won't be much help either. Paypal is the safest for buyers but many legitimate sellers won't take paypal because it's too favorable for buyers in case of a dispute. BUY THE SELLER, NOT THE ITEM.
