earl keese 0 Posted August 30, 2014 (edited) Has anyone purchased from this seller, which certainly gives the impression it is the genuine Noob watchmaker? Of course, I don't read the language so can't tell what they're saying on the website - but, in communication, they purport to be the Noob maker. www.noobfactory.com www.noobfactory.com/article-5.html Edited August 30, 2014 by greg_r links deactivated Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kcore 0 Posted August 30, 2014 You don't read the language and can't tell what they're saying. Yet you say in communication they purport.... So are they communicating with you telepathically? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

narikaa 129 Posted August 30, 2014 So are they communicating with you telepathically? Prolly Google Translate not as robust or reliable as telepathy - but next best thing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daywatch 4 Posted August 30, 2014 They are about 1/3 more expensive than the TD´s here, so it must be a supernoob factory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DR3M3L 4 Posted August 30, 2014 Never heard of them. It's easy, this is the webshop of the factory. MOQ is 500. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 81 Posted August 30, 2014 Real deal? Of course not. The noob factory do not sell direct - these guys are just another (rather expensive) dealer, misrepresenting themselves as something they aren't... Steer clear... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GenTLe 1,509 Posted August 30, 2014 Moreover some of the pieces they present as coming from Noob factory, aren't from them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frankt8242 1 Posted August 30, 2014 You've got to give them credit for selecting an enticing name though...I wonder if they asked Neil's permission...??? :giggle: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
D_Chico 0 Posted August 30, 2014 Use Google translate to read the site.. If you look on the page that is labeled "noob factory introduction" and scroll to the bottom you'll see it mentions RWG and RWI I'm really intrigued about who would or could create such a site..

fusion 0 Posted September 1, 2014 The domain Noobfactory.com was up for auction and looks like it was purchaed around 07/10/2013. The contact number, specifically +86.13800138000, is listed as the Registrant, Admin, and Tech points of contact. That number is also related to 2,642 other domains in use. That would suggest to me it's probably not the 'noob factory' as we know it, rather someone registered it the name, auctioned it off to whomever, and then when they've burned themselves sufficiently, buy another name and repeat the process. There are other suspicious clues as well, but that's just my guess.
