"DO NOT GIVE THESE CROOKS YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY. I susupect they are operating under other names on the Internet. Just don't try to buy a replica watch on the Internet. You are throwing your money away. This bunch is worse than the worst of the New York/New Jersey mail order camera swindlers. Just don't do it! Or have fun with them order COD and refuse delivery. They don't want credit cards because the sale would be disputed. I hope you're not reading this after you paid. If so leave a review. I have them as Global Replica, Time LLC and probably many other names at 138 E. Lafayette St., NY 10013. Try Googling these names for other comments of those they've cheated. These are cheats, cons, crooks and swindlers. But it seems we are currently living in an impotent society where idiots like these can do whatever they want to.

"Blue Fakes advertises the "highest quality" replica watches available. Both Swiss ETA 27 jewel and Zenith 31 jewel movements are listed. They offer a huge selection, plus a claimed 30 day money back guarantee, as well as 2 to 5 year warranties on their watches. They supposedly take all major credit cards and include overnight Fed Ex delivery at no extra charge. Blue Fakes also claims to be a 2007 Webby Award winner. In addition to all of this, several online replica watch buying guides strongly recommend Blue Fakes as a trusted dealer.

So, with all this information in hand, I called Blue Fakes to order a Swiss movement replica of a Rolex Submariner watch. I was surprised when the salesman, a very pleasant fellow, told me they could no longer accept credit cards and they now only shipped COD. The $700 watch I wanted was on sale for "only" $585 so, against my better judgement, I agreed to their terms. The watch did arrive next day via Fed Ex, as promised. The package arrived with no invoice and no instructions for the watch. My only receipt is for the postal money order I purchased. The check was written to MTP Company in NY, not Blue Fakes, as I was instructed to do by my salesman.

I anxiously opened the box, which was a cheap black box with stick on Rolex letters. The letters fell off as soon as the box was handled. The watch itself looked beautiful, a very nice looking replica indeed. Unfortunately, the luminous insert in the six o'clock position had detached and was now loose under the crystal. Not a good sign! Next, I rocked the watch gently to get the automatic movement engaged. Nothing happened. I then pulled out the crown and tried winding the watch, a standard way of getting an automatic watch going if it's been idle too long. Again, nothing appened. The watch was completely dead.

I immediately called Blue Fakes. They promised they would issue a call tag and immediately ship me a new watch. That never happened. I called back, now asking for a refund under the terms of their 30 day return policy. I was promptly hung up on. Since then, my calls have all gone to an answering machine. I have left countless messages, but none have been answered. I am left with a broken watch and am out $585.

I have since learned that Blue Fakes has an endless stream of complaints against them. All their victims have had the exact same experience...being shipped an inferior and often defective product COD, with no chance of a refund or replacement. I have also learned that all the so called watch review sites I used are scams set up by the bogus sellers. They are there to lend an air of legitimacy to these con men, and funnel business to them. The majority of the review sites are Chinese based, as are the sellers, even though they often have US addresses and an American staff.

Blue Fakes is a rip-off site. Their domain is registered to a NYC Chinatown address, and their web site is hosted by GoDaddy. The Webby Awards have never even heard of them, let alone given them an award. Their guarantees are all nonsense, the descriptions of their watches are all lies, their supposed high ratings on web sites are all part of the scam. They will take your money, then grab a plastic envelope with a cheap Chinese knock-off and sell it to you as a high end watch. If you get a broken watch, you own it. There are no refunds, no exchanges, no replacements. If you call to complain, your name and number will be blocked. The email address on their web site is phoney, and any email will be returned.

Blue Fakes is a classic, criminal scam operation. This review is meant as a warning to others. I was stupid and ignored all the warning signs. I'm out $585 for a non-working $45 Chinese replica watch. Please don't repeat my errors. Stay away from these people! If you want a replica watch, there are plenty of places selling these for $50-150, which is about all they're worth. Don't get ripped off like I did. BTW, they never answer their phone with a company name. I'm sure they have many names and are behind many of the online replica watch web sites. Be careful out there!"
