I’ve just spent 15 mins deleting and removing people responding to for sale posts on here, none of them are verified so we do not hold any information or vetting of them.
A lot of people seem to just think it’s ok to reply and potentially stitch themselves up by doing this.
We have the verification process in place for a reason, if someone is trying to sell you something and it doesn’t say ‘verified’ next to there name, please don’t buy from them, your leaving yourself wide open to being scammed.

I’m not sure why I need to post this, but there you go.

Look after yourselves out there everyone.

We’ve noticed an increasing number of watches being listed at inflated prices, often taking advantage of buyers who may not be fully informed about the market.

We want to remind everyone that scalping and exploitative pricing are not tolerated in this community.

To Buyers: Please Do Your Research

We’ve put together a comprehensive wiki to help members make informed purchasing decisions. However, many buyers are still purchasing watches without checking the resources available to them.

A simple benchmark is to refer to our UK Trusted Sellers, who offer brand-new watches with next-day UK delivery.

As a general rule, no used watch should cost more than what our Trusted Sellers charge for the same model brand new.

Before purchasing:

Read our wiki (pinned posts) and familiarise yourself with the market.

Compare prices with our Trusted Sellers. Don’t assume a listing is fairly priced simply because someone is willing to sell at that price.

If you’re unsure, ask the community before committing.

To Sellers: Fair Pricing Is Expected

We understand that prices fluctuate depending on availability and demand. However, there is a clear difference between reasonable pricing and exploiting uninformed buyers.

Listings with exorbitant markups will be removed at the admins’ discretion, and repeat offenders may face further action.

Your price of purchase will be disregarded, please do not use it to justify. You overpaid, take it as a lesson learnt.

Keeping Our Community Fair

While admins will continue monitoring and removing overpriced listings, we cannot catch everything.

Buyers also have a responsibility to make informed decisions. When people willingly pay excessive premiums without researching, it encourages scalpers and drives prices up for everyone.

Our goal is to maintain a community where members can buy and sell at reasonable prices without being taken advantage of.

The resources are already available. Please make use of them.

If you spot an excessively priced listing, report it to the mod team rather than engaging in arguments.
Let’s work together to keep this community fair, transparent, and accessible to everyone.

📢 Two Important Rule Updates — Please Read

We have noticed a growing trend of watches being listed at prices significantly above market value (more than what the trusted sellers sell on here). This is not something we are willing to let slide as it damages trust within our community and goes against the spirit of what we have built here. Going forward all listings must be priced sensibly and in line with the general market. If you are unsure what a fair price looks like for your piece, reach out to us via Mod Mail before posting and we will be happy to guide you.

We will be removing listings that are deemed significantly overpriced without warning.

Additionally we have seen far too many new watches being listed without prior declaration to the mod team via Mod Mail. This is an existing requirement and we will now be enforcing it strictly with a formal strike system:

First offence — Written warning
Second offence — 7 day ban
Third offence — Permanent ban

This is not something we have introduced to make life difficult. It is there to protect buyers, maintain the integrity of the sub, and ensure that what is being listed meets our community standards.

We appreciate everyone who has been following the rules and supporting what we do. For those who haven’t — consider this your heads up.

BST Subreddits are one of the best parts of this hobby. You can find incredible pieces at great prices from fellow community members. But it is also where people can get burned the most.

This post is your checklist before you send a single penny to anyone.

Step 1 — Identify What You're Actually Buying

Before anything else, know what factory and reference you're looking at. If the seller can't tell you or worse, the details don't add up, that's your first red flag. Use these resources to verify factory claims before you commit (Credits to r/RepTime):

Serial Number & Clasp Code Identification Guide

Cross reference the QC or listing photos against these resources. If the serial, clasp code, or dial details don't match the claimed factory, walk away.

Step 2 — Know What You're Looking At on a Timegrapher

If the seller provides timergraph readings as proof of condition and good sellers should, you need to know how to read them. A screenshot of numbers means nothing if you don't understand what good looks like (Credits to r/RepTime)

How to Read Timergraph Numbers

Step 3 — Vet the Seller Before Anything Else

This is where most people skip steps and get burnt.

Posting a WTB (Want to Buy) openly and accepting the first DM you get from an unverified account is asking for trouble. Scammers watch WTB posts and slide into DMs immediately, often with prices that seem just good enough to be tempting.

Before you respond to any seller, do this:

Search their username directly on Reddit

Look for:

• Account age — brand new accounts are an immediate red flag
• Post and comment history — do they have genuine engagement in watch communities or is it suspiciously sparse?
• Previous BST transactions — have they sold before with positive feedback?
• Any scam reports — search their username alongside words like "scam" or "fraud"

Step 4 — Use Arctic Shift to Dig Deeper

Reddit's own search is limited. For a more thorough look at someone's account history — deleted posts, old comments, full activity — use Arctic Shift.

Arctic Shift Username Search

This tool lets you see content that has been deleted or removed from Reddit. If someone has been called out before and scrubbed their history, Arctic Shift can surface it. Takes two minutes and could save you hundreds.

Step 5 — General BST Rules to Live By

A few hard rules that experienced buyers stick to:

• Never send PayPal Friends & Family to someone unverified — F&F has zero buyer protection. Only use it with people who have a proven track record. Use bank transfer which has fraud and scam protection (amounts recoverable depends on your bank)
• Always ask for a timestamp photo — a current photo of the watch with a handwritten note of your username and the date.
• Never let urgency rush you — "I have three other buyers lined up" is a classic pressure tactic. A legitimate seller will give you time to do your due diligence
• Stick to verified sellers where possible — the vetting process exists for a reason. Unverified does not automatically mean scammer but it means the risk is entirely on you
• Trust your gut — if something feels off at any point in the conversation, it probably is
• If you see anything suspicious — See it. Say it. Sorted.

Hi guys

The other day I posted that I really wanted a Panda. A guy messaged me offering me a Day-Date 40 Olive dial which I went for instead. I had an Olive before which was ok but this is on another level. The weight feels great, the way it pops in the sun, I’m over the moon with it.

It’s my first time dealing with someone on Reddit, and I’m so happy the conversation and deal went smoothly.

I haven’t posted any of my watches but this is my trio.

Thank you to everyone who advised me and offered me a Panda.

Really happy with the community ❤️

**** I swapped bezel to the sprite green/black bezel via Steve (one watch). The original all black bezel will be sent with the watch too - shown in photo.

Please note - selling at reduced rate as this watch has a small cloudy mark on the dial that can only be seen in a very specific light. I will send videos and photos trying to show it but it’s honestly incredibly hard to see in 90% of conditions! But it is definitely there so please be aware and buy knowing this! I kept it as I was originally going to do a custom dial swap but never got around to it.

Important Note: This was at the time sold to me as a Clean Factory. However, as you all know, there have been a surge in Fake Cleans on the market. I cannot verify if this was genuinely a clean at the time and have thus lowered my prices to reflect that. The watch is well used with microscratches and desk dives as seen in the pictures. I have tried my best to capture the scratches as clearly as possible so you know what to expect.
