Gene requested that I prepay for a Rolex watch I was ordering for my wife. On Deceber 3 he texted me: "Hi. Any way you could wire me the balance? Watch will be here in a day or two. Need to pay the dealer " I responded "Sending $13,000 now" December 9 Gene, could you provide me with an update on when you plan to ship the watch? "Hi. Was going to contact you. AD is asking for full name to put on the warranty card and address, please. They're slow now because of the upcoming holidays but at least I'm getting it from a US dealer....which is better and faster" December 29 "Hi. The watch should be here in the first few days of January. Thank you " January 18 Gene, Could you provide me with an estimated shipping date? Who will be shipping and by what means will it be sent? Thank you January 25 "Steven, i heard your message. This week we'll resolve this one way or the other. " January 29 "Good morning. I'm going to be between queens and Brooklyn all day. Could i make an appointment with you for Monday? You're in Manhattan, right? " February 1 Gene, Are you going to meet me in Madison NJ as you agreed? "Steven, please send me your wiring instructions. We won't need to meet. Thank you. Please text them " February 2 Gene, I did not hear from you and you did not wire my deposit back to me as I have requested several times and as you have promised to do several times without success. I will no longer acquiesce to your postponements. I am turning this over to my attorney. February 4 "I will refund you asap, a matter of days. I'm not a thief. Just a little bit more patience. Thank you, Sir" February 4 Dealer contacted me. He has had the watch ready for shipment since December 28, 2015. You have never paid him. You didn't need my funds to place the order. You lied, you stole my money to cover another of your multitude of lies. That is theft and fraud. You are a liar, and a thief. "Give me one-two days, please, and I'll refund you. You can call me whatever names and i deserve it but i think it's still better for both of us if I simply refund you." February 12 "Steven, need your account number at chase, please. I can't find your information. Making 2 or 3 deposits today through Tuesday. 4500 ready now from a chase account, so will be available immediately. Thank you" February 19 When do you expect you will pay the remaining $8,500 that you owe to me? February 20 I have not heard any more from you on your plans to repay me the balance due. When are you going to address this? February 21 "Hi. I'm still in NY, going back to Chicago tomorrow. I'll write over the weekend on a specific plan for the balance. Please rest assured it will be paid" I had to separately pay the dealer $13,390 for the watch. Still waiting on the remaining $8,500 from Gene. You can see from the texts above how he works.
Ordered an IWC from Gene. As in the posts before me, he asked for full payment ahead of time I sent him $5,400. This was in July. It's now September and there is no watch and no refund. He is mostly not reachable and when he is, he just lies saying he will refund today. I'm starting to hit all social media and will file police report. He needs to be shut down for his illegal business practices.
To those who have been successful in getting money back, any suggestions?
I bought a Parmigiani Pershing watch from Gene Shor on Watch Connection via eBay for $7,900. He advertised the watch as mint condition but it stopped working if you did not leave it on a winder every night, it then eventually froze completely. He offered to fix the watch so I sent it to him. After a couple months watch was returned to me but still did not work. Per his request I sent him the watch again and he STOLE THE WATCH!
He has been unreachable via phone or email for many months and after speaking with the Buffalo Grove police department, I was told to file a police report for felony theft with my local police department, which I did today. Gene Shor is a liar, a cheat, and a fraud. I have sent a copy of the police report to eBay and they, in turn have assured me that once it is verified, they will turn it over to the Buffalo Grove PD.
He sold me a watch that was not as advertised and then stole the watch when I returned it for repair--He has the watch and my $7,900!!! If there is a lower form of life out there I'd like to know what it is but stay far, far away. BTW he had great reviews on eBay and does business under a couple of different names. eBay assures me they will freeze all his accounts once the police report is verified. Watch out for Gene Shor.
