AD nonsense!!!!

Hi guys...... Yesterday I visited AD in the hope of building a rapport or if possible buy a SS Sports piece. Just to be clear I was prepared to pull the trigger if the opportunity had risen. I was also interested in another brand (vacheron constantin) which this ad stocks.

As I walked in I was approached by a female sa asking if i needed any help so i mentioned what I was looking for. Straight away she took me to the rolex area showed me a few non sports pieces, there was another sa serving 2 ladies, he abruptly interrupted and said they don't have any SS Sports piece and they are not taking any names. I was prepared for this so it did not really bother me.......I carried on browsing and saw a black dial skydweller (my lucky day) the female sa called a rolex specialist over to see to me, he came over and was very polite and professional. He showed me the piece but it was a white gold at 37k......just to see his reaction i said i would purchase this if you throw in a ss spot piece.......he says his got a no date sub which can be part of the deal.......i said at 37k it better be a Daytona or pepsi at the least. Btw the sa who was rude and abrupt was now in shock thinking there was a potential sale. I said to the sa your colleague said you didn't have any ss sports pieces........classic reply........ We only offer ss sports pieces for combined purchases. I tried to convince him to sell me the piece on its on but he was having non of it. I offered to buy a ladies dj but it was not what they were looking for. They wanted me to purchase a 20k+ gold piece in order to get the sub........ I told him politely but in no uncertain terms that i would rather pay a grey dealer a premium!!!

Im actually quiet happy i experienced this at first hand.
