Yes, there will be a second price increase for this year but...

it will be on the professional models. They haven't told us the exact increase but the catalogs are on their way.
If you want one and you're in the Sacramento area hit me up.

It's amazing how many people get calls from AD's with warningsof pending price increases. It really does stir the pot.

It's Sales 101, close a sale on a potential buyer who is on the fence on spending money.

No offense, but seriously, who cares? The only people who will be strongly affected by this are people who buy watches constantly.

If anything, we should be happy. Our watches are rising in value...

If you own 50 shares in Microsoft and Microsoft shares increase $10 (just an example), are you getting mad because you can't buy many more? I certainly hope not...

No news in Singapore too. Apparently, th ADs here don't call us as much. Just imagine you are getting intimate with your partner and an AD calls to imform of a price increase.

There's only one thing to do if your gettin' busy and the AD calls...........Tell her you'll be right back, this won't take long.

Come on now, you've got to keep your priorities in check.
