That's what he said . I asked if he could get it back and no reply due to a situation he had at that time so I waited for him to get back to me .

ok @GATSBY1 fair enough but you have to let us know who wronged you or this isn't going to anywhere.
We have to give the other party the right to reply and at the moment, they're staying quiet for some reason.

Fair enough , but let me say that I really liked this guy and was comfortable conversing with him this is why I took him for his word and thereceived has to be a explanation so here it is, boat2dan.

Also I was upset and a little hostel because I've got a real sick daughter and ended up losing my job to be her caregiver so 1500 isn't a lot to most of you all but it is when your getting shut off notice from pg&e

This whole situation is bad for everyone involved and not what I am used to seeing out of this forum in the short time I have frequented it. Sorry to hear about your daughter and situation. I hope things turn for the better for you and your family.

So... the member involved sold on the watch that you sent him @GATSBY1 ?

Is that member watching and willing to comment?
Not yet been online as of right now.

I get that this isn't cool but the truth is he got his watch and he knows it's worth the 3500 and multiple people have agreed so I don't see a reason why he doesn't pay the difference and end this. If it's not worth it give it back cut and dried

I will echo Kali77's sentiments. I'm sorry for you and your daughter's situation as well, and I'm sure the entire forum would feel the same way. It really is a fine group here, and I bet things will eventually work out for everyone, especially, I hope, for your daughter...

Thanks for letting us know more information concerning this transaction. It will be good to hear, if we can (and if he is willing) from your buyer...

And thank you for your kind words Kali77.
Indeed Dore circumstances.

If he flipped it and made a profitable he will.agree to compensate you somehow.

He doesn't have to....but it certainly would be on the spirit of the forum and human decency

Not a problem I dig you guys and never knew there was a group of people that have this love for time keeping nor ever realized the details of what it takes to build something like what I sold. I have to do the dishes so I'll get back to this ,I'm sure we'll have the other side shortly

boat2dan? Veteran member? Less than 300 posts. Probably signing up to WUS right now, never to be seen here again.

Well, he is a 3-year member here, and plenty of all positive feedback as a buyer and a seller

... and he appears to have a really nice boat!

I fear that you're probably right. On one level it seems like it might be good riddance to bad rubbish. On other it would be a shame that he hasn't taken the opportunity to right a wrong and restore his reputation.

It has been less than 6 hours since this thread was started. boatdan hasn't been online so he and Elvis must have left the building? Talk about jumping to conclusions.

Chill chill it's only been 5 hours on a weekend. He could be out on a boat 😜 or out for the day. Give the guy some time before he's hung drawn and quartered.
