I'm getting annoyed trying to buy a watch now. Its quite a frustrating industry to engage with.
Full of scammers, fakes and it seems that most legit shops try their luck with punters anyway. Just been quoted £3k for a watch that is work £1.7k tops by one supposedly reputable firm.
Come on, I know you say you are flexible on price but you can't claim to be a reputable and trustworthy firm and then open negotiations by testing to see whether you've got a gullible person with too much money and no reseach in front of you.
Make me a high offer by all means but don't call me an idiot first.
