Icon8 Melrose Jewelers on Ebay?

So the sketchy Melrose Jewelers are back on Ebay?!

And now they went under the name "Melrosediamonds"

http://myworld.ebay.com/melrosediamonds

Although I've never dealt with them personally due to some bad experiences I've read online, one of my friends have, and to put it simple: Melrose Jewelers sold him a watch that was not what they had advertised, and then refused to follow up. Then continued to ignore any emails or phone calls.

Now I'm wondering, with all these negative comments surrounding Melrose Jewelers, how are they able to maintain a 100% positive feedback?!

Somehow I sense something fishy going on here

What do you guys think??

They are suffering from dyslimic disorder. That is not to be confused with dysthymia which is a DSM IV-R Disorder.

Dyslimic Disorder is when you feel the need to take a shower after being slimed by an unscrupulous seller or, been lied to by a greasy person. It is an affliction that is obviously shared by the company in question.

Melrose Jewelers; a pretty sorry outfit to deal with for sure. I'd stay clear of them. We should have a "sticky" in this section to ward-off potential buyers here on the forum.

Melrose Jewelers needs to meet Gibney, Anthony, Flaherty

If you do know someone who has documentation of a misappropriated sale from Melrose, I would suggest having them get in touch with Gibney, Anthony, Flaherty. Attorneys just love big-ticket dirtbags to flex their jurisprudence on.

Melrose Jewellers Australia use an address in Sydney CBD where most of the prestige jewellers have their stores.

Nick who is a very reputed watch dealer from Mosman, Sydney went for a stroll in the area and could not find their so called retail shop. He reported the fact in his news letter to his clients last year.

Melrose J. is a very fishy outfit. If you check their Ebay sales, there are numerous non jewellery items that have added to their score and 100%.

best to stay clear.

Cheers
