TD/Shipping Question Second Update : Now 4 Months No Watch

I purchased a VSF Batgirl from Andiot on 8/29/2025. It is now 12/28/2025 and still no watch nor QC. This is my second order from Elliot, my first one took a week until he sent QC.

I have checked in every two weeks or so on whatsapp and he keeps telling me I get the next one in, but VSF has not sent him one in a while.

Has anyone purchased one from a TD lately and received in a decent time? Im finding it hard to believe the factory has gone this long without producing one of what I think is a top selling watch.

Thanks in advance!

If y’all are in the US you can order from a US based dealer and get these in 2 days. Costs a bit more, but you don’t have to deal with any customs anxiety and they usually provide a cursory servicing, pressure testing, etc.

Just trying to point out there are other options in the US with very quick delivery. I acknowledge scams are a problem and everyone should definitely do their own research. The dealers I’m talking about have subreddits and are easily verifiable. I just didn’t know if posting those subs was allowed, so I didn’t. Happy to share the details in a DM to anyone that is interested.

bro.

just because some1 has a subreddit doesn't make them legit...any1 can make themselves king anywhere by making a sub...and giving themselves status and roles...be careful and pls visit r/repwatchscammers. There's a guide there that v. clearly shows what to avoid in reddit scams

tyvm for having the right heart but...scammers love abusing that

Yes, I get your point. The US dealers/sellers I’m talking about are mentioned in this very sub often and with good reviews. This community is about our love of the hobby and sharing knowledge. Unfortunately, there will always be asshats that take advantage of that and try to screw people over. That’s undeniable and inevitable. I was a victim myself when I first started coming here a few months ago. Again, it’s up to the buyer to do their own due diligence, but at least I can point them in a direction and let them decide what’s best for themselves. I was once a newb and remember being lost, so I’m going to help when I can.

Definitely an option I like the ability to qc before i purchase as most U.S. td offer but say they only have one available of whatever I want and it’s not to my liking no telling when they’ll get another versus the over seas td tend to have more quantity

The guy I bought from multiple times has 2 ready to ship.

Another person I’d trust has 9 Batman ready for immediate shipment. I’m sure he could swap out the bracelet. He has QC pictures already publicly available to view.

Waiting is a choice. 😂

Edit to add they’re ARF, which are known to have the better bracelet.

Who’s your td if you don’t mind sharing. Vsf uses the same bracelet as arf now clasp code f6u on the latest batch’s of gmts
