I Recently Had a Problem with Anthony
In Response To: Anyone heard from Anthony R? ()

A couple of months ago, I agreed to buy a watch that Anthony had listed on ChronoTrader . . . no hassle about the price, as I agreed to pay what he was asking.

After a month of asking for the payment information, and never receiving it, I asked to cancel the transaction (and Anthony agreed) . . . I decided that if he couldn't even send me a message with his bank wire information, how in the world was he going to send me a watch?

Everyone says that he is a nice guy, but I wonder whether he should be offering watches and parts on ChronoTrader, if he can't deliver them or even reply to messages. I have also spent some time addressing complaints from other readers, who have had problems with his style of doing business (or not doing business).

So the consensus seems to be that he is a nice guy, who sometimes can't get things done. Let the buyer beware.
