Sadly, due to unemployment and the dire state of the economy, I have had to sell my beloved Sub. It broke my heart. If things don't pick up soon, my gorgeous Ducati will have to go as well. At least I got a good price, everybody wants a nice Submariner. Think I'll be drowning my sorrows at the weekend!

dalip · 20 September 2012, 01:24 AM

Sorry to hear this Mick. I hope things pick up for you

boywondergq1 · 20 September 2012, 01:27 AM

Very, very sorry to hear this. The good news is, is when things come around for you soon (and they will, trust me) you can get another.

scarab007 · 20 September 2012, 01:27 AM

oh man...that sucks..hope it picks up for you and you get your sub back.

zeuloa · 20 September 2012, 01:28 AM

Stay positive Mick and remember these are just material things you can purchase again in the future. Things will get better - they always do!

Indeed! It will turn around in no time! Keep your chin up and stay positive and focused!

Your friends and family is what truly matter, material objects come and go.

So sorry to hear. Hope things get better.

Jannal · 20 September 2012, 01:49 AM

Been there, think positive. You'll be back, I did.

T-Rip · 20 September 2012, 01:50 AM

Sorry to hear that.. good luck

bayerische · 20 September 2012, 01:50 AM

Drinking doesn't solve anything.

Stay positive though!

And I hope you'll get to keep the Ducati.

SubmarinerMariner · 20 September 2012, 02:01 AM

Best of luck!!! Keep your chin up and once it turns around, you'll be back in force...

kcmo · 20 September 2012, 02:08 AM

Well said! Besides, if anything, this tells me that you have your priorities in a good order.

I wish you the best of luck my friend!

I hope you recover and are able to obtain a even better sub in the future my friend!!!

Kingair · 20 September 2012, 02:42 AM

You'll work back to getting a sub again. Good that you were able to sell if when you needed he cash. That is another benefit of having a Rolex. I'm sure things will pick up again, as said before-they always do!

Time Exposure · 20 September 2012, 03:37 AM

Nice to have toys, but that's all they are. My Sub sold 13 years ago. No regrets today, but it sure hurt at the time. You'll be in a better place after you sell the toys. If you try to keep the toys, you may end up somewhere you don't want to be, and possibly lose the toys anyway. Your wisdom today will save you tomorrow. And who knows? Maybe when things recover, you'll find better toys!

mannyv11 · 20 September 2012, 04:04 AM

Hope things turn around for you soon. Like others have said keep your head up and things will work out.

mtrunner · 20 September 2012, 04:05 AM

Hang in there, I hope things turn around for you!

mickyvee · 20 September 2012, 04:22 AM

Thanks guys! Yeah, toys is toys and there are much more important things in life. I have a very supportive and loving wife (thank heavens) and we'll certainly get through this sticky patch. If the Ducati has to go, then so be it. I'll just get a lesser bike instead until things get better. I've got my eye on a nice Z1R! Unfortunately, the bare patch on my arm cannot be filled via a cheapo watch, so I will wait until I can get another Rollie. There is no substitute!

kilyung · 20 September 2012, 04:42 AM

You'll come full circle soon.

Rocco22 · 20 September 2012, 05:05 AM

Sorry to hear that. It has happened to me before as well but I always ended up with another one,you will too.

wantonebad · 20 September 2012, 05:27 AM

Sorry Mick, most of us have been where you are at one time or another, chin up! It will get better!
