Do not get taken. We see FAR too much of that crap here.

Always do your due diligence withe any transaction, as either a buyer or seller. Check, check, check and quadruple check.

And N-E-V-E-R wire money to anyone if you are a buyer, unless it is to one of the brick-and-mortar sellers such as DAVIDSW, Takuya.

As a seller, be aware that there are TONS of very clever scammers out there who get watches left and right all the time. We regularly see the stories posted here.

There is not enough care that you can take being either a buyer or seller.

Lack of transparency is always a deal breaker for me.
