What happend to a certain "lady" over on TZ?
Discussion
As far as I'm aware she wasn't banned but she made a fool of herself by posting that she was going to buy a £22,000 white gold sub and then posting pics of a fake, claiming it was the genuine article.
Even when several long standing members called her out she maintained that it was the real deal and said that she would pay £500 to Help for Heroes if it was proven that she was a liar. People then exaimined pics of other watches she claimed to own and it appeared that much of her collection was 'iffy' to say the least. She eventually 'fessed up that the sub was hooky but then refused to say whether she had/would pay the aforementioned monies to charity.
It all went a little sour, especially when she posted pics of the same sub on WUS again claiming it was the real deal.
To say there were issues may be an understatement.
Regards

Last active in August, by the looks of it.
A thread was started in The Bear Pit -
"Do you believe a word TMS says and would you buy a watch from her now
Yes I believe her 6% [ 23 ]
No I do not believe a word she types 43% [ 150 ]
Yes I would buy a watch from her 12% [ 45 ]
No I would not buy a watch from her 37% [ 130 ]
Total votes : 348"
Ouch!
The thread grew to 28 pages in 7 days... can't really be bothered to read it.
Edit to say that this poll came up after the Rolex debacle, though I haven't read that either. Seemed trustworthy to me from the number of times she appeared as a hero in the H & V section.

I don't understand the reason why she did that tbh. She was a good person to deal with otherwise. Very honest in that regard! Utterly bizarre.
It really was, the way she played the build up to the purchase, the subsequent pics of the AD's 'loan' watch and then the denials of it being anything other than kosher were all totally mental.It was a total car crash played out on the intermong.Very, very, very odd, especially when as you say she had built up a strong reputation amongst some members of the site.

Yeah, she was selling watches at good prices plus throwing in stuff like sweets. I bought one watch from her but wasn't happy with it (turns out it was fine but I didn't read the manual properly so thought there was an error) so got a full refund, no quibbles. Very, very, very odd, especially when as you say she had built up a strong reputation amongst some members of the site.
It was a bit odd, certainly from her side, but also from a few pitchfork wielding members too, all very silly.
JAYB will be most distressed she's getting attention, even when long gone... Wasn't 'multiple personalities' that got her struck off from here?
Seemed very enthusiastic & honest in all her (many) dealings otherwise.

Linky to the Rolex thread on TZ?
This might be with me dusting off my old TZ login.
