SSTEEL 0 Posted March 18, 2014 http://www.rwg.bz/board/index.php?showuser=38191 Avoid this guy from Israel, he is a royal pain in the back side. I have this evening ended an almost 200 email exchange with him regarding some work on his poor condition, new TC sub. His demands are so rude, his tone is insulting, and basically, I am warning my fellow watchmakers do not engage in communications with this tool. Please do yourself a favour, and avoid this young man like the plague! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 84 Posted March 18, 2014 Okay Jack. What do you have to say for yourself? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SSTEEL 0 Posted March 18, 2014 I have quite a long email chain that would make quite interesting reading I don't normally rile very easily, but this guy is unbelievable! He was expecting his cake and eat it, expecting me to buy parts to mod his watch Just as well I checked with him when he finally agreed to send me his watch. He replied, no, I thought you would buy the BK DWO etc, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheInthusiest 0 Posted March 18, 2014 I want to read the emails. I feel, it will lighten my day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Del Boy 0 Posted March 18, 2014 Luckily it sounds like this could've ended up much worse... I think after about 20 e-mails I'd have got bored myself! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dalboy 2 Posted March 18, 2014 I'm long overdue a good read ! :lmao: 200 hundred Emails. Fuck !!! Sounds like War and Peace . Remember Mick .. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SSTEEL 0 Posted March 18, 2014 Will do mate. Tempted to post the email chain though :lmao: Luckily it sounds like this could've ended up much worse... I think after about 20 e-mails I'd have got bored myself! He wasted so much of my time its unreal, I tried to end the emails a few times then he kept crawling back tail between his legs. I have a big heart, and even tried to help this guy out, but he simply wanted his cake and eat it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SSTEEL 0 Posted March 18, 2014 (edited) Ok, here's a snippet, I couldn't help myself. You can tell from my last reply I totally lost it by then lol Ok, I plan send it tomorrow morning. Lets do a reflect of all details: Repair the bezel with new gasket. Replace the dwo to bk dwo Align date and dial Polish. Expect to professional labor. Im prefectionist mate. more than good labor , of course i expect to honest and fairness service. I'll pay you for all that 85€ include shipping. Everything sounds ok? Regards Jack Then I thought I had better check he is sending a BK DWO with his watch head. You are sending a BK DWO with your watch head correct? Then he said.. No! I dont have bk dwo. I understood you provide it from what he talked. Then its here I lost it big time. NO JACK! Are you [censored] kidding me?!?!?? When I do work/modding for my customers, they buy their own parts themselves, and send them to me with the watch. My customers do not expect me to go and buy their parts for them you fool. You are asking for €200 euros worth of work for €85 euros returned, so in fact, minus shipping back to you, only €60 euros?!?!? Forget it jack. I’m done with you. No more emails from me. You have been a royal pain in the ass. I will be reporting you to other watchmakers, to avoid dealing with you PERIOD!! I am a professional watchmaker, not you friend. He kept knocking the price down, which I do not normally tolerate, but I felt he deserved the benefit of the doubt, so tried to help him out, but alas, its all ended in tears lol The above was also shared with a friend of mine, so just had to edit some things out so it made sense for the forums.

Del Boy 0 Posted March 18, 2014 Ah crap... that's completely ruined me knocking your price down tactic I've got no time for idiots like that... but thankfully you didn't have the watch. I have a bad feeling that this guy might end up getting a few Paypal accounts shut down.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SSTEEL 0 Posted March 18, 2014 I'm so so glad I asked if he actually had got himself a BK DWO, and that he was sending it me with his watch head. If I hadn't of asked that, and then his watch turned up without it, I know for a fact he would of held me to ransom. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Monty010 1 Posted March 18, 2014 So micky your saying that you wont do all that for the super amount of 60€. Shame on you..... Nah your right what a tool. I'm impressed that you tolerated this crap for 200 Emails. Jeez you not only have a gift with watchmaking but you have the patience of an angel to with it. I would have told him to shove it 150+ mails ago. Good on you to kick his ass to the curb. Now you can concentrate on people with normal expectations.

1littlegreen 1 Posted March 18, 2014 I guess this is a taste of what Chris (10:10) went through towards the end. Don't blame him either. Good on you Mick! Need your sanity to keep the hands steady for 'real' customers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
headhunt3r 0 Posted March 18, 2014 You're bringing shame to all other watchmakers around here.... by not telling him to fuck off 180 emails ago What a wanker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
black263 228 Posted March 18, 2014 I have a BK DWO. If I send it and $60 do you supply the watch? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
