    Complaining that seller of fake watches didn't deliver...

    You couldn't make this up. There's a thread on MoneySavingExpert complaining that a seller (who goes under the imaginative name of Manchester_Replica_Products) sold a fake Rolex for £45 and then didn't deliver.

    The poster is most indignant and wants to warn everybody about this "fraudster".

    This can't be right. In my experience "Mohammed Khalique Shabbir" has always delivered as promised.

    No luckily I got that from one of the many other independent stores around the Strangeways area of Manchester. The movement is a genuine copy TEA; none of that ETA rubbish.

    On a serious note, Strangeways has exploded with counterfeit goods again in the past few years. Occasionally you hear of a multi-million GBP raid but in reality, it seems rife with the smaller police forces now in operation. It seems to have gone backwards by 20 years.

    20 years ago I used to work in a cash and carry next to Strangeways! I hope we haven't gone back to those days, my old body couldn't cope with such manual labour!

    Getting ripped off when you decide to break the law - karma!

    In reality there is a large market for people who buy replica watches and a lot of sellers do provide people with exactly what they ordered when they purchase one. So it doesn't seem surprising in the slightest that someone would complain when they get ripped off.

    Odd thread (this one, not that one).

    Best plan is to find a dealer that's trusted on one of the popular replica sites.

    Is that someone who can guarantee that your fake watch is actually a fake.

    The dealer is still a criminal even if you want to use the word 'trusted'.

    Or stop mucking about with fake CR@P, save up and buy the real thing, rather than pretending to have something you really don't

    Trusted criminal, and there's an oxymoron

    Haha so true, the build quality of an original is far superior and you really appreciate why these watches are worth what they are.

    Hit the nail on the head there.

    Plenty of look -a- likes of all sorts of stuff, be it watches, handbags or whatever that can be legally bought.

    No need to give money to criminals.
    Cheers,
    Neil.
