Gotta love the excess of SCP. I sue to live in Newport and what a great place to watch shop (look), then buy right here

Any sales people make a fuss about you taking pictures around the mall and stores?

You're a brave man going to a mall on Dec 23.

I don't know that I'd let a valet park my Lambo. If it were mine I'd probably leave it home and take my beater car, probably an BMW750 or something like that.

Nice photos! But all those pictures of people walking around in the sunshine made me depressed... the thermometer outside my window says -35C! Sigh...

Sweet post, thx a bunch. Makes me remember what life's like back home. I feel like I just went to the mall which is a real boost from all the gray scale colors of Iraq. Happy holidays.

Awesome photos, would love to go sometime.

Question to anyone who's able to find the answer:
How much is the DD 218206 with diamond dial as pictured in this topic going for?

Ty.

I'm glad that I stay very far away from that mall - I'll go crazy and bankrupt in about half an hours time.

Nothing wrong with innocent pictures of shoppers in a mall pre x-mas. A bit different from jumping the proverbial fence and taking pics of the royals in their birthday suits.

I believe the law protects the right to privacy where there is "an expectation of privacy". There is generally no right to privacy in a shopping mall, out in the open etc.

Not to mention that most mall goers would be subject to video surveillance as a condition of entry.

Thanks for the cool pics. Would love some shots of the VC displays.

Cheers

My first thought was Ferris Buellers Day Off. I guess, that's the place to be a valet.

IWC was the friendliest store. The sales staff said take all the photos you want
