B Q

I was so nervous when it come to selling
My Rolex ,when I went into Jewellery shops and pawn shops, they offered me way under what I paid and then I looked online and was nervous about sending it off to be valued and if it would go missing . Then a good freind suggested using BQ watches . From
The time it left me to the time it sold and
And money into my account was 6 weeks and through- out they kept me informed . Top service and a great price . Sorry
For long review but credit where credit
Is due .. special thanks to Spencer who negotiated on my behalf .. kr Steve

Steve,

Thank you for the lovely review and for trusting us with your Rolex. I completely understand how daunting it can feel, especially after low offers and worries about posting a valuable watch. I am glad our process felt secure and that our updates kept you comfortable, with the sale completed and funds with you within six weeks. It is great to hear you were pleased with the price and service. Your kind words about Spencer mean a great deal and I will make sure he sees them. If any friends or family are considering selling or buying, we would be grateful if you pointed them our way. We are here whenever you need us.

Warm regards, BQ Watches.

Acceptable selling outcome in the end

Acceptable selling outcome in the end, but price offered seemed more about opportunism and pure haggling than a scientific and trustworthy valuation. Not what I expected.

I appreciate your response to what happened on the day. I had £1,000 taken off my price estimate based on your 20 minute testing process, despite having just had the watch fully serviced. Then £1,000 was added back again 10 minutes later after my watch was re-tested and found to be fine before I left the office!

This wasn’t a process that I had expected, to say the least! Nadia was polite, efficient and very responsive throughout - and I eventually walked away in a better place, but the process was a “journey” shall we say.

Jeremy,

During your meeting, both the conversation and your watch were reviewed again. Upon inspection, the watch was found to be magnetised, which can occur if a watch has been exposed to an electrical field, even after it has been serviced.

After speaking with you, we carried out a second test. This confirmed that the watch’s readings were within acceptable limits, following which a revised price was offered, and we were under the impression that you were pleased with the outcome.

I attempted to call you regarding your review in the hope of resolving your frustration; however, you did not wish to speak with us, which was disappointing. We would have been more than happy to reverse the deal and offer an additional £250.

We are sorry that we did not fully meet your expectations. However, as no dissatisfaction was expressed at the time, we believed you were satisfied with the agreement reached.

Again, we would be happy to discuss any further concerns you may have. If you would like to do so, please feel free to call me on my personal number, which you already have.
