As you all have read by now I was looking to get one of these YG DD 1803 RQ for the last 4 years.

Missed a few (2 actually) . . . missed a dial about 3 weeks ago on VRF and than suddenly I noticed that Jacek had one for sale last Friday.

I send an inquiry and Jacek replied within 30 minutes

Surprised as I was getting a mail back that fast

They way it should be

We had a small conversation and the watch was sold . . . all per mail . . . not 1 second on the phone

As agreed I made the wire this morning just before 11 AM so the money should be there a few hours later

At 01:26 PM Jacek mailed me that the watch would be shipped today

01:44 PM I received the Trackingnumber from Fedex

Now gents this is the way it all should go . . . over and over again

Jacek thank you very much ! ! ! !

It was a pleasure doing business

Easy, simple and fast !

I'll be back again . . . . no doubt about it

HAGOne dear TRF friends
