for buying watches, handbags? It'll be end of the year, 6N vacation, so still have lots of time to do research. Rgds Raymond

and once pledged to Nico that if I want to buy used watches, I will only buy from PuristS mods...:)) Is it reliable to buy used there? My worry is I won't be able to look for refunds if I found issues later. I'll keep them in mind, really appreciate your ...
