Hello again friends! I am on muiltiple waitlists for the Rolex BLNR and was wondering if AD’s charge to ship out of state? I had one AD tell me that they charge $150 to ship fully insured and 1 business day.

Rahir · 7 May 2018, 01:55 PM

When I bought mine they didn’t charge and I didn’t pay sales tax either.

lisalisa · 7 May 2018, 02:03 PM

Some will charge and some won’t.. but most I’ve paid was $50. Some do USPS registered mail which took like 5-7 days and the other did FedEx next day.

it depends each AD... $150 is small change for a 10K watch.

stlwx21 · 7 May 2018, 02:06 PM

I know of an AD that charges $150 to overnight out of state. However, you still have to come in to the store first, then they would be willing to ship it.

dcash0615 · 7 May 2018, 02:07 PM

I have paid the AD between $30 and $75 for shipping out of state.

gringtito514 · 7 May 2018, 02:32 PM

Thanks guys! For now I will keep hunting until I find one! Wish me luck!

JR16 · 7 May 2018, 09:22 PM

For a high demand watch, I wouldn’t say no if AD wants to charge you up to $150 to ship out if State. For watches without waitlists, you should be able to work in free overnight or two day shipping to your negotiation.

The state of Florida requires you to pay sales tax, don't know if you knew that or not. I was audited once and know of two guy who were and it didn't go well for them.

MonsterSS · 7 May 2018, 10:48 PM

$30 bucks for the last one I got out of state, thats for fedex priority overnight, insured

RHIII · 7 May 2018, 11:39 PM

Yes - usually $40-$50 — overnight usually.

Mine charged $40 for UPS, and no sales tax.

Roma315 · 7 May 2018, 11:48 PM

Typically they cover shipping, and do not charge taxes

T01 · 7 May 2018, 11:49 PM

Frankly, I wouldn't pay a dime to ship a Rolex I bought out of state. They have plenty of margin to pay an overnight fee.....

Syed117 · 8 May 2018, 12:50 AM

Some do, some don't.

Mine does not and I appreciate that.

texasmade · 8 May 2018, 02:14 AM

The Rolex boutique in Houston didn't. I haven't been there in over a year so policy may be different now.

cptdean · 8 May 2018, 02:44 AM

I was recently quoted $100 to ship overnight from an AD in the Seattle area.

liuk3 · 8 May 2018, 02:47 AM

Why wouldn’t you pay for shipping?

Chadridv · 8 May 2018, 02:52 AM

I’ve worked with ADs that charge $70, and others that will waive the fee.

I bought a watch from out of the country, they shipped my the watch box and packaging for free.

chad362wiley · 8 May 2018, 02:55 AM

One paid for two way shipping to a friends then back to my house, one made me pay just to send it out. Depends. Also, if you pay cash and they save the 3% card fee they’ll probably be more generous if you bring that up.

travisb · 8 May 2018, 02:56 AM

Some do. I've never had to pay more than $50. Usually nothing though.

BLM2 · 8 May 2018, 02:57 AM

I have a question regarding insurance. You purchase the watch over the phone. You give your credit card. The watch is to be mailed to you. Do you need to request insurance? If the watch is lost in the mail, who is responsible?

Some ADs absorb the shipping fee for their clients. You're paying thousands for a watch and the AD is potentially making thousands on each watch sold (Rolex).

If Amazon can throw in free shipping for spending $25, an AD should for every watch sold.

Rrpdc · 8 May 2018, 03:15 AM

I paid $45. Fed ex insured overnight

Baco Noir · 8 May 2018, 03:24 AM

My AD doesn’t but when he gives me a price he knows he’s shipping it so I’m sure it’s factored in.

AK797 · 8 May 2018, 03:29 AM

This should all be stopping soon, ADs should only sell to locals they know and can vet for flipping.

ckaynyc · 8 May 2018, 03:43 AM

The last watch I bought from an AD, we got to a price plus shipping. I countered with a slightly lower price and free shipping. It's really up to you on how you lead the negotiation track and somehow land on a final price with shipping baked into it.

Yobber76 · 8 May 2018, 04:53 AM

I've been charged $50 and $75 on my transactions for insured overnite. No sales tax, though.
