I've purchased a few watches on TRF and received some great deals. How can one complain when buying used :). On one purchase I see the exact watch now selling for even less. I'm assuming (yeah, I know) I could negotiate maybe an additional 5% - 10% of what the seller is listing. That would mean I probably paid 10% more on my original purchase. Doh! I can't complain as these prices are far better than anywhere else and I'm happy. Maybe I should just negotiate a little better :)!

I would focus more on enjoying the watch then worrying about money already spent. Just negotiate harder next time around.

there will always be a better deal and a worse one.

if the deal went well and the seller delivered as expected with no surprises, don't take this for granted... if it is a trusted seller, there may be a premium for piece of mind.

do your homework so you find the price your comfortable with and no regrets.

The grass is always greener over the septic tank.

Just be happy you were in a position to overpay in the first place.

Don't forget in pre-loved-land that condition is king. Enjoy your find and deal!
