Just want to share my bad experience of the shop on Amcorp 2nd Flr.
Asked about the difference in the case back of a vintage watch as compared to pictures researched on the net, the owner was arrogant and rude. The caseback looked very new for a watch made in 1970 so it was a valid question.
Quote: "Of course its genuine. Anyway its only RM 2,000 not RM 20,000. If its sent to the AD and they say it's not genuine, I'll pay you back."
He had the tone, look & attitude of a person who was condescending and gave the impression that his time wasn't worth discussing a 'cheap' watch. He was however most attentive to a customer who was there to collect a Moonwatch… as if that's a high priced watch..His shop sells 90% Rollies and Pams…guess that's all the watches he knows about.
What has RM 2,000 got to do with RM 20,000. So does he means that if its RM 20,000 and its not genuine, he won't or isn't able to refund ?
Wonder which school he went to..
Sure as hell I'm never going to step into that shop again and I'll definitely warn all my WIS friends as well. I'm really pissed.
How about the flea market in amcorp mall? Heard that there are a few pre-owned each sellers there. Not sure if what they mean is the existing shop owners or other people who open just for the flea market. Anyone have any ideas?
Chris is right in describing the flea market operator selling watches.
Apart from these "part-timer", there are 4 or 5 shops selling pre-owned watches located at different floors in Amcorp Mall. Some of these shops also do repairs and some do sell other accessories like straps and bracelets.
(Note : Can't name the shops as forum Rules dictate otherwise)
