The AD's are now deeply into the latest scam with the hot commodities. It goes like this:
"Oh, one of my regular customers backed out of his order, and I have a new white ceramic Daytona for you, at retail, . . . and you can buy it!... BUT, what ELSE are you going to buy from me?"

(And you better be thinking about buying about $20K worth of other items, or you ain't getting the $12.4K Daytona - - - -it's really that simple!)

So, it's easy to say, "I'll buy it elsewhere" . . . . until you can get it for retail, and the gray market is WAY more! (Then, maybe that AD is someone you DO want to take out on a date, after all??)

Looks like high maintenance,the real cost of "market price" at the grey....the return on investment is low...and scratches easily
