Cash or charge sir?
Just curious, how many of you paid cash for your Rolex? I am nearly finished saving for a new ceramic Sub.

You don't have to go into debt to use a credit card, I always charge mine and pay it off when I get the bill. Why not get 5-10K miles per watch? I've funded many an airline upgrade through my obsession with Rolex!
I would use cash if the incentive was better, ie: a lower price... |

>I used a CC, bu then paid it off with the first bill.<
Same here. I do not, nor will I, ever understand people that buy high-end items on credit cards and pay 19% interest for several months. Sure, maybe it might take a little more than 30 days if an unforseen expense happens, but if you cannot afford a high ticket item, save until you can. Mark |

Wanted to get the points on my AMX, but had the cash before I even started to get serious on a model each time

This. If the store would offer a sufficient discount for cash or non-AMEX card, then, I'd go for that, of course. |

I always wondered what it would feel like to bring in 7k in 100's to the AD....but it seems the credit card incentives make paying with cash a net loss...
Also, isn't credit so much easier? |

Still paying it off.........anyone lend me a dime
 If you don't have the money to buy it, then don't buy it - that's my motto.
