Nice pickup! AD games can be infuriating.

I know you are right and I didn’t get too upset, especially when their CEO phoned me to apologize for the email before I had even read it. It’s definitely a different world these days!

Good of you to realize it and do whatever you needed to do to get your first PM piece.

Well done. Happy for you!! Major congrats

Heck yeah! David pulls through again! I love it when members say, "Never buy from grays. Always buy from ADs". While I do agree, purchase from Ads for retail price. But in this day and age, it is virtually impossible to purchase something from your AD without the years of waiting...

You may not know if you'll be here on earth next week. So why not buy what/where you can NOW... Instead of the usual run around from your local AD.

Sure, loyalty with you AD is good thing. But your loyalty with a gray dealer is just as good. Or if not better and FASTER
