IMPORTANT: Serial #'s
In Response To: Re: Serial #'s ()

Any business that has to file the serial numbers off of otherwise authentic merchandise is doing something illegal or unethical. Even if the laws against it are not enforced, or the business operates in enough of a gray area that they so not get in trouble, that does not make what they do right.

I would not do business with such an operation under any circumstances. Remember: removing serial numbers is to protect THEIR ASS, not yours. By doing so, they expose you to potential problems that *at best* may never bother you, but at worst could be *much* more costly than the few dollars you may save up front.

If anyone is so constrained that they have to take the cheapest price for a watch without regard for the ethics involved or future legal/financial complications to themselves, then I would suggest it is not a good time for them to be buying an expensive watch.
