Hi All, Sorry for interrupting, anyway any of you guys know where can I sell my 2nd hand watch. Actually not really 2nd hand as I just bought it last week in pavillion (haven't use yet, still new in box) My watch is the ORIS day date watch which is exactly as the model in the URL below. http://www.oris.ch/collections/collections...n=en&watchid=79Willing to let go at a bit cheaper than the retail price I've paid for it. Reason to sell is that no longer found it attractive (found a nicer watch with the same range price...I know its lame..fickle minded) Anyway absolutely 100% original and not fake FYI. Anyone interested here also can PM me. I can show the product pictures once I take it with my camera. Zul p/s - sorry if this is not the correct thread

seriously, 1 week and u sick of it. abit cheaper than retail, if u wanna sell it to 2nd hand place. u will lose at least 10-30% from the price u paid. watches is like car, sign the paper and bring home for even a day and resale value tend to drop as if u own it for 6mths try sites such as, maybe U don't get to lose much http://tamhk.com/mwf/index.php?board=6.0www.watchuseek.com

QUOTE(patryn33 @ Jun 14 2010, 08:36 AM) according to ck77 experience. Malaysia no tax on watch (import). usually no Tax when U getting overseas. buy from USA, UK and ship to Malaysia no tax. buy from Germany, I got tax from http://www.watchstyle.com/ck77 didn't get tax from Laco. Stowa is a mix bag depending how U do it. That's EMS status on my incoming shipment from Taiwan, Dutiable or non-dutiable: NONDUTIABLE  Added on June 15, 2010, 12:19 pmQUOTE(zulslider @ Jun 15 2010, 02:39 AM) Hi All, Sorry for interrupting, anyway any of you guys know where can I sell my 2nd hand watch.

Should have read around the forum and shop around more to find the perfect automatic watch for me. Anyway thank you very much for the info. I might put up an ad for the watch there. Also if you can spread out to anybody who wanted to own an ORIS automatic watch at a cheaper price from retail maybe 200 - 300 ringgit cheaper, can PM me. As for the products, do not have to worry as it is still in the box, with warranty card, and brand new... Thanks guys..

Thanks guys.. at least now you join the Watch Lover Flipper club....hope you got good price selling it... if you are near singapore or can travel to Singapore, the Singapore rolex owners club is another exciting place to sell (loads of advertisement, activities, etc). Visit their website and go garage sale, under `Other Watches'. Only thing is most of those guys do COD, in Singapore itself.
