My new Trio w/ bad AD story
Hey everyone, as some of you may know Im a flipper. I can't be with the same watch. So heres my new trio
1st. (GMTc) This GMTc is actually my original GMTc from a AD that I traded someone with about 1.5 month ago when it was brand new. I traded the watch for a preowned D serial Daytona. Then bought Sean's GMTc, later I tracked down the owner I traded with and traded GMTcs'. So I got my originaly purchased by me watch back with my name on it. 2nd. (Daytona) I sold the D preowned Daytona and bought this brand new M serial white one from a AD for about $450 over list price, which isnt bad here in California. 3rd. (Milgauss) Went to another AD of mine and since I buy watches there too I picked this up at list. And put me up the list for a GV at list. AD story This p*ece of sh*T AD in Artesia, CA named Bh*nd*. (h*nt hint) was trying to sell me a new Daytona for 12k after he quoted me $10,900 a month ago, and if I bought that he would sell me the Milgauss for list, thats if I bought the daytona for 12k. Then I asked if I can just buy the Milgauss they said no. WTF The crappy thing is, I could have sent them A LOT of business and I would have bought a lot of my watches there if they werent such a-holes. |

DARK TRADE......(You traded a GMTIIc) for a Daytona? Did you have to give any coin for the difference or was it a level trade?
your AD wants to make a [dark] profit on your buying habits and you keep asking for the "[dark] holy grail" in the Rolex production line. This AD has your "number". |

Nice trio, but man let me tell you that there are some really good 12 step programs that might help with your condition. But you are safe since no one here would ever consider an intervention.

Thanks everyone!!! Im happy with what I have. But honestly Im not feeling the Milgauss. I just bought it because it was there and I wouldn't loose money if I did.
As for the GMTc to the Daytona trade. It was VERY fair. I got full value of $5950 for my GMTc and added $3550 cash. So it was like $9500 for a mint D serial, sold it to a friend for the same price. I will probably sell the milly and will sell/trade the white dial daytona for a black dial. |
