thanks for all the replies.

i hate dealing with cash unless small amount then ok.

count the 50s will blur and miscount gg.

You know my experience with counting cash hahaha. Some seller told me to "act my wage" and called me broke when I offered to pay by ibanking. Lol

 

[nexusRAGER]

a quick question - if you were to buy a watch from someone, would you prefer cash or ibank on the spot?

say more than 5k deal.

i cannot understand, 21st century, there are people who like to deal with cash. deal already the next day still need go deposit.
later seller fkup count wrong, complain.

ibank - just numbers, easier. no hassle. not as if i can freaking hack the back and reverse it out.

if $10k deal i will go bank take $1k notes

that time i buy watch paid in 100 $50 bills abit paiseh

25% upon asking for me and sales person told me can nego further if keen.

i check with some bros here before, a few got over 30% for Oris. really depend on negotiation skill. me ? I just buy online , much cheaper

I very much prefer to deal with ibanking than cash. What if the cash is fake, at least ibanking has a record. But I agree, most people I deal with has requested for cash i don’t know why man! Maybe doing full time trading and don’t want to declare tax? Lol

Rolex no longer service vintage watches before 1970s? You can go try but otherwise there is Top Hour next to rolex service centre where it can be repaired accordingly.

I kanna rejected for my Tudor 1960s watch at RSC few months back, so I know.
