This thread is the proof that being able to vent one's frustration is one of the benefits of being in a forum.

Actually Rolex prices were skyrocketing long before covid and inflation, I would say late 2017

Please don’t think you’re the first person to start a thread complaining about these threads…this week. The only thing worse than the numerous threads you're complaining about are the numerous threads started to complain about them.

I don't think this is the reaction the OP was looking for.

OP part of the problem is posters cannot obtain the watches they want, so all they can talk about is their never-ending journey to obtain their dream watch. Could people obtain them, the threads would be totally different. Conversations just reflect reality. Would be nice to get back to pure watch talk, beyond the sales process, but the sales process needs to improve for that to happen.

Padi being butthurt on the thread is the new DOCG label of quality for a RF thread nowadays here. This place is becoming a parody of itself.
