I don't normally post or comment on other peoples experience of whether they were ignored or not taken 'seriously' enough, but when the owner of the shop comes downstairs and stops the sales person helping you because, and I quote, "You're asking a lot of questions" and then tells me to go away and come back tomorrow when someone who knows the answer can help, I get a bit p***ed off! To be more than fair he may have just been establishing if I was serious buyer or not, but that definitely isn't the way to do it! Even the assistant looked embarrassed.
I should have told him what I thought there and then but was in a state of mild shock. that could have just been their prices -£10k for a 1972 Pepsi GMT!
Outatime- I can also say that I've found Watchfinder an okay place, helpful but not pushy. With Bremont, Omega and Boodles in the RE as well it's time well spent
