| Post subject: | How to do an overseas trade ? |
In my ramblings I have stumbled across my Grail watch. Problems; I would like to trade a Rolex gold president w/bling for it but don't have a feel for its REAL current value. How can I get a real market appraisal and not some low-ball offer or crazy high insurance appraisal. How do I make sure "the grail" is up to spec ? Its in Italy. And how do these deals get done. Are there escrow dealers for this ? Any help would be appreciated. |

I have read warnings in various forums that escrow dealers should be avoided. |

Its supposedly that the Italian postal service leaves much to be desired. Mainly, delivering things to their own houses instead of to the addressee. |

By bling I mean Rolex's version of bling; Diamond dial and bezel. I need to take it to 3 retailers here in Dallas to get a feel for value. I was in New Orleans a bit ago and went into a Breitling reseller who had two crazy Navitimers just covered in stones. What a great way to ruin a perfect watch. |

I recently experienced my first jewelry store retailer in Grapevine over the weekend. It is sort of an outlet mall and I was saw a Breitling and Rolex sticker on the window. I was amazed at the awful offerings in the case. There were several Lings with the dinner plate bezels, and extra bling. The only two actual OEM Breitling offerings were a Colt and Avenger, but both were filthy. Anyhow....Good luck with your grail hunt |

The Big AD's are in Dallas; deBoulle and Bachendorfs. A few in FW. One store in Southlake. |
