Icon20 Buying replica rolex in this forum???

Hi all!

I'm new in TRF, and I would like purchase Rolex on this forum. My question is everybody has to sell the authentic Rolex, or has someone bought the replica by scam before?

Sales, and even discussion, of Replica, counterfeit, fake,. etc., Rolex watches is grounds for banning from the Forum.

Counterfeiting of Trademark products is a crime.

In addition I can’t overstate you need to check references on anyone you’re buying from. TRF does not do due diligence for you. Buy from someone you trust. Just because someone is a pledge member and has 4-6 references doesn’t mean you’re good to go.

I saw your other post about buying risks and I recommended boutique sellers.

Now seeing this one, I looked up your location. Being in Houston, you have a very respected nearby seller named Thanh Do aka Takuya in Katy.

See his listings in the boutique section.

I’ve purchased two pieces from Thanh.
An 116610LN back in 2017, and an 116610LV a few weeks ago.
Both very smooth. Buy with confidence from him.

Thank you for all answers! I’m new in this forum, I don’t even know that we can check the location, and I don’t understand some time people say “references available request “ and “bump”… ��
I will check out Thanh Do

Thank you again!

Stick with the "Trusted sellers" - they have their own 'boutiques' in the for sale forum. You can't go wrong.

References available on request, means contact seller to ask for references. Bump. Means they are keeping their listing current until it sells. To do that, they add a comment. They also could have said "Happy Friday" and it would do the same thing. Just an attempt to keep their listing being seen by potential buyers.
