Serious VERO question.............

Nov 1, 2009 9:25 AM
I shy away from anything even remotely VERO, Channel/Rolex/Juicey faster than I run from mutant beanie babies. I have major trust issues and am extremely protective of my feedback. Plus, being not so bright, I hate anything complicated.
Hubby bought a Omega watch and after posting on the watch board, it appears to be geniune. Lots of interest. I have received 5 questions since I posted about if I am putting it up.
Here's the posting.


Can I get some basic advice here? Is it worth putting it here or should we try to sell it in our shop or even locally??

I would put it online and let people fight for it.

Saw one recently a local friend listed and it cleared just over $300. Started at .99. I think it may have been a bit better condition, but not much.

They seem to have a following.

Last week a friend stopped in with a vintage channel blazer. She saw it at the local goodwill. Told them the tagged price was too low. $8.00.

She went back the next day and it was out on the floor again for the $8.00. She bought it. I called a local friend with a vintage shop. She swung by and picked it up. Within 2 hours she called to say it was sold. For $400!!!!

We all made money!!!!

Omega is the watch James Bond uses. B-)
I think it's a rival to Rolex.
Depending on the model expensive when new.
I'd list it.
Good Luck !!

I am VERY concerned about VERO. Check out the drama at the purse board. Fakes. Ripoffs. SNAD.
Lots of issues.

List it on CL if you are skeptical about putting it here but if it were me I'd list here too ;)

Ann...don't be overly shy because of the purses people...there are a lot of things going on in that category. For one, there IS a lot of counterfeiting in the handbag industry, but secondly there is ALOT of nasty underhanded competition in that category. Seller on seller stuff...you know, undercutting the competition. Then there are these few women who are on a mission in the handbag counterfeiting area...they've opened up their own websites. They're fools...doing voluntarily for LV and others what those companies can MORE than pay to do for themselves.

Those are category specific problems. I don't think you'll have the same problem in watches.

AND if this is a second hand watch...then you have no VERO problems to worry about at all...the right of first sale stands...manufacturer has the right to earn their royalty on the FIRST sale of an item, ie...when the item is NEW. After that, manufacturer has no rights in the resale of items they have already gotten their profit on in the FIRST sale (ie...sale of used items). Is that clear...am I explaining this correctly.

For more information on copyright abuse, visit www.tabberone.com...she's famous for standing up to these manufacturers!
