I’d like to relate my experience with an online Replica watch company known as Replica2U, located at www.replica2u.com, and also known under the name of Luxury Replica. Their website is well laid out, and their pricing seemed reasonable compared to other watch sites, so I placed an order with them on July 15, 2010 for a watch that was listed at $422.00.

As I checked out, I was informed that there would be a $35 shipping charge. This was annoying, as I personally have shipped watches to China for $13. So already, I was being gouged on the shipping for more profit. The completed order was then sent to a “transfer site”, where the $457 was changed into a foreign currency that I was not familiar with. When I checked my bank account the next day, I found that $511 USD had been transferred from my credit card – a far cry from the original $422!

It took 12 days for the watch to arrive, and when it did, I was sorely disappointed. The watch looked 20 years old, the “gold” was like tarnished brass, the bracelet was stiff, and when I shook the watch to wind it, it would run for 5-10 minutes and then stop. The watch was old, cheap, and completely non-functional.

I immediately wrote to Rep2U, asking for a full refund. They responded three days later:

“Please put it back into 2 plastics as what we send and use bubble wrap to wrap the item and put in bubble envelope to sent back to us. No need to sent with the wooden box (if any).

Please state repair item on the consignment note. Do not state watch brand name to avoid from custom block. If using Registered Post, please add an insurance on it.
