Oh wow!

How about lowering the price? But the price isn't exactly crazy is it?

Maybe it's the MOP dial?

Pretty insane. If it isn't selling then the price isn't right. Time for a price decrease. I am not a fan of the MOP on the daytona. Looks like I am not the only one.

I haven't dealt with Ben but he seems to be a good guy. I just think he might want to change his avatar if he wants more hits.

Maybe time to lower the price or offer to change the dial.

Actually I have no problem with the dial, especially on a WG piece.

Hey it never hurts to try! I've seen the same stuff for sale on Craigslist for years without price reductions. I'm personally nowhere near that patient, but I guess folks are just waiting for that ONE person to come snatch things up. Kinda like that commercial where the guy is selling million dollar hamburgers..."all it takes is one".

I guess Ben could game the system and pull it for a week, then create a new listing. To be fair, he has asked for offers, offered to do trades, etc.

I agree the MOP is a tough dial - everyone is slightly different. The pinkish tints in some areas of this one may not appeal to the majority of buyers.

Now if he'd offer to swap tht dial with meteorite...hmmm
