imho I don't have any problem paying as Poul seems to be an upright person,e-mails updates regularly and it is a Awesome watch which I don't believe he is making much $ onhand6.gif

I do however believe it is better business as far as appearances are concerned to avoid any raised eyebrows as presented here and to have the product ready in hand and completely checked over for quality before asking for final $ as this not only shows your company is lucrative but confident in that product as well yourock.gif.

..in my experience when someone starts looking for $ before the job is done they are hurting for $ and need it to finish...which is fine with me as long as I know where to find them ;)

Well Oscar I know exactly where the address on his website is. I lived about 3 miles Southeast of that location for awhile but lived in the Seattle area 1988 to 1999 and know my way around well and still have family and friends there. But I too feel good about Poul. I lived there 1968 to 1972 also as a kid. :cool: ;)

I have also prepaid for the OE and am anxiously awaiting it's arrival.
I believe that this is a new experience for Poul and he is in fact feeling his way throiugh, my guess is that in his enthusiasm to offer a topnotch product he is overextended, or atleast working on a razors edge.
There is little in his behavoir so far to suggest that he nothing but above board, responds to his email,post production images and seems genuinely interested in feedback.
I consider this a relatively minimal risk.
I ordered a Bill Yao Seafighter mod and paided him in full, is that a risk as well ?? some might suggest it is, but I feel very comfortable with it.
The Korsbek OE has the potential to be one of the great watch values.

1) I am not saying that Poul is not to be trusted. I cannot, and as I do not know him...I am speaking in general terms only regarding business in general and am not disparaging any individual

2) That said, and again in general terms, con-artists always give you a warm and fuzzy feeling. That's their job....look at all the people JS (aka Corona Gorda) took to the cleaners.

3) Your example of Bill Yao is a different story...he is well know in the WUS community as a craftsman and a man of integrity. Additionally, he has been in the "watch" business for years, and he has established his reputation as one who delivers by consistantly delivering on his commitments.!

Skip, it gives me a warm feeling inside knowing that you can play bounty hunter if the need arises. I can just see you busting down the door and walking out with a fist full of watches to send to your 3T colleagues.

Yea. :) And I think he is doing rather well with Fricker. With all this going on right around the Basel Event also you know they are very busy. So if he can pull this off on schedule that will say allot too. ;)

update from Poul...one of the really Good Guys!hand6.gif..I don't see anyone wanting a refund on this Awesome watch imhoyourock.gif

Greetings,

I have gotten a couple of emails regarding the final payment for the OE.

The only reason that I emailed out the final payment was that many of my customers were eager to pay off their balance.

I have no problem for the rest that wants to wait until they see pictures of the final product, before they make the final payment.

If you decide against the OE, then I will of course reimburse you the downpayment plus shipping. I only want your 100% satisfaction.

If you have any concerns please send my an email. I always respond back to you.

Best regards,

That was a great note, and one that makes me feel much better about the situation. Thanks for sharing that Oscar.
