greg_r 81 Posted October 30, 2015 Yes, the site is a well-known scammer - some have gotten away with dealing with him, others have not. Stick to the trusted dealer list next time and you'll be a lot safer.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mattcrx 8 Posted October 30, 2015 Iv bought from him quite a lot specially parts! always posted fast and communication is brilliant. I always pay PayPal though to be fair Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MadButcher 0 Posted October 30, 2015 I wonder how expensive would be to fix this cyclop misalignment by local watchsmith... 35 EUR +/-? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cicciothekid 0 Posted October 30, 2015 I wonder how easy would have been from HIM to nice this MAJOR problem and FIX IT before sending me, or better...why didn't he solve my problem? I sent him the watch back...and it's my fault that I didn't go to a shop that i don't know and ask: hey...can you fix this thing to my replica-illegal watch? thank you sir! if you pay 400usd for a replica...you don't want to go to a local shop and ask to fix...

trailboss99 995 Posted October 30, 2015 With a butane torch and a bit of UV glue it's an easy DIY fix. BTW OP, there is nothing wrong with Selitta movements mate, it's a Swiss made clone of ETA. Somehow I'm thinking you may not be cut out for this hobby if you are that worked up over a misaligned cyclops. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although I do agree that either 1) he could have sent a better piece 2) tried to make it right after the fact and in good time ... the main problem is that he is by no means a TD whether he actually scams or not ....... Also lots of people do take their reps to watch makers and say exactly that ... "hey here's a replica, can you fix it?" with no problems at all ... they are not going to call the cops on you because you have a rep watch ... really they'd prefer to fix it because they know that they can make some money and you'll probably come back when it keeps breaking .... final point though, to fix that would have taken about 10 minutes to pop the crystal and rotate it about 1 degree left ... from no on stick to the TD's and avoid these problems or at least if there are problems they will be solved Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cicciothekid 0 Posted October 30, 2015 i know...but now i got this problem...and....at least I wanna aware other people of buying from this "sir"...because I don't want them to loose money and time as I did... so...take me as "example" of not to do....BUY FROM TD LIST people, not from people like Tony Chen!

narikaa 129 Posted October 31, 2015 Dont understand It says Noob Factory no less In all its magnificent Noobishness Hell even the tiddly 'Qundi Li' sounds like 'Kundalini' (maybe its a Tantric Cyclops and you just need to open your Chakras when you look at it) Anyhoo off to check the shipping costs on a London bridge (OP might be just the guy) .

Somehow I'm thinking you may not be cut out for this hobby if you are that worked up over a misaligned cyclops. Please stop jumping on folks who share bad experiences. Maybe a messed up Cyclopes would be ok if he really paid $50 for it, but he paid some pretty top dollar money according to his total, clearly that type of quality wouldn't be expected at that price point. We get this is not a hobby of perfection, but some of us do want people to take the time to share bad experineces so we don't make similar mistakes. If everyone keeps blaming the people who share stories, no one is going to take the time to share anymore and we will all be on our own with scammers at every turn. If you don't think this guys story is "valid", fine, you're entitled to your opinion. But I appreciate that he shared the story and the names of who he was dealing with.

black263 228 Posted November 5, 2015 really thank you so much for your understanding... To be fair, you're complaining about someone who isn't a trusted dealer. We get many many such complaints, and for a lot of the members it is how they found their way here. That's why the standard reply is usually "stick to the TDs in future".

k3rm87 181 Posted November 5, 2015 Looks like OP got of lightly with this one, not a bad watch. Just fix the cyclops and you're all good. Stick to TD's in the future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beerfridge 0 Posted November 6, 2015 Am I missing something here? OP used the interwebs to purchase illegal replica watches, got burned, then came to a tractor/goat forum to warn folks about it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dennisaston 0 Posted November 6, 2015 I've ordered from Tony Chen via his website before and due to a delay in him getting stock, and finding this website and being told to stick with TDs, I asked him for a refund and he politely agreed and honoured it. I paid via Aliexpress for a satnav system which he uses as a front as you cannot sell reps over Aliexpress. Quite clever as it covers the buyer to ensure you receive the product (funds don't release until you confirm receipt). His comms were good, I don't think he's a scammer and the OP may be working up a sweat on this occasion. If I got a bad product, I'd probably just resell on M2M (stating flaws) and take the hit as someone else with more modding skills could Make something of it. It's risk and reward with this game, if you don't want risk then buy the gen. Rule one, buy from a TD. Rule two, don't order more than 1 watch at a time.

Babkatower 0 Posted November 7, 2015 I bought from Tony. It was my first "real" rep. I have to say I was super satisfied. Ok ..they f it up by sending it by DHL with a value over 22 eur (so it got stuck at customs) But he even refunded for the cost involving all fees etc. Maybe he is not a TD but my experience was pleasant.
