How do you know when buying here if it's from a trusted seller? It seems a big risk to just wire someone you don't personally know $20M!

Grissom · 9 June 2013, 07:48 AM

You can read the who's who section, to begin with.

https://www.rolexforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=28

Tony (justrolexes), David (davidsw), Greg (Mosco), Oscar (bodybump) are just the ones who come to mind off the top of my head.

Good luck.....and welcome to TRF.....

What are you buying? A luxury yacht? with $20M to spend, I would definitely had to have a face to face transaction.

What are you buying for 20,000,000?

Spent an extra 2k and get a plane ticket for in person ;)

Gharddog03 · 9 June 2013, 07:54 AM

Don't know about 20m. But thousands of $ are wired across the world here on TRF. I wouldn't buy anywhere else. Good luck.

kilyung · 9 June 2013, 07:55 AM

What's $20k when you can afford $20M?

Sorry... I always forget to put k instead of M. In the financial world M = 1000 (roman numeral for 1000 is M) and MM = 1,000,000 (1000x1000)

A yacht would be closer to $20MM.

Lol so a Rolex sub could also cost $20D? Like $10,000 because D is 500. How about $10B? Doesn't it stand for 10 Billion dollars? I've never heard of $20M as $20,000 in money lingo maybe in another country but I could be wrong.

On a serious note, you can check the TRF trusted sellers here in the who's who section. Enjoy.

This is correct. We use MM to denote millions in my work too.

Watchdog · 9 June 2013, 10:45 AM

DavidSW is one of the greats.

Golf11 · 9 June 2013, 10:51 AM

Yes, DavidSW is awesome...closed a deal with him this week!

Go with Tony or David and you will be in great hands

Swift_Movement · 9 June 2013, 11:04 AM

Just watch them for a while and see who's always there. That's what I did before I bought on here

3 rules of Trusted Sellers:

History, History, History

Just like Real Estate's "Location, Location, Location" rule; there is no substitute.

It's confusing because some also denote MM as billions. Because M means million so MM is billion. I get confused though.

The OP is correct, in the financial world, banking particularly, we use M and MM. Never have used the "K" in my 30+ years in banking.

Anyway, What I did before I bought on here was look first at the for sale section and see who the most active guys were. From there I made a list and researched the feedback on these sellers in the who's who section.

jolimont · 9 June 2013, 02:12 PM

trust your instincts and research

Bigbadbns · 9 June 2013, 02:35 PM

I've done countless transactions with DavidSW. Perpeptualman is also an honest seller. Like other have said, go to "Who's Who" section.

Shikar · 9 June 2013, 02:38 PM

I am not a trusted seller, so that's one less person to worry about.

The who who's section is great to research. DavidSW is awesome from personal experience.

Regards.
