More positive comments about the Grey Market…

 

I would also say that the ‘bricks and mortar’ grey market dealers that I have walked into when travelling have more often been run by knowledgeable, enthusiastic individuals who had products on hand to show me. It is also not unusual to get carried away talking about a watch that they don’t even have on hand to sell me. My experiences here, just as a customer, have been generally more positive than in AD’s where the salespeople present themselves well, but frequently know little more than superficial information about the products they sell.

 

If it wasn’t for after sales service if something goes wrong, which can be a bit hit and miss I think, I would be happy to purchase from the grey market.

 

I am more cautious about buying over the internet from people I do not know who might run a watch business from their spare bedroom. Although in reality, I am sure there are honest people like that around, and some of them probably use our Collector’s Market facility as well.
