Icon20 What happened to all those guys wishing for an AP price crash?

How many times did we hear last year guys saying they were hoping for a crash so they can buy?

Where are they now? Still scared to buy

Why not make this comment on the original thread that was moved rather than troll here and reopen the can of worms?

I don’t think I’m one of those guys. But why buy now when you can see it’s going to come down more. I’m done with buying from AP boutique when my SA told me I have to buy a code and other stuff in order to get the Openworked I wanted. Wait…maybe I am one of those guys.

OP is the guy who did a ‘clearance sale’ to $51.5 on his 15500 then re-ups the price back to $57k!!!

He can also be recently quoted to say this:

Guy makes rude post, gets proven wrong, now TRF is "nasty and vicious" LOL. You're going to need a 5 figure price reduction on that thing BTW.

It’s still crashing lol. What are you saying?

The fact that people have not been buying, and there is a lack of trades shows that there’s a market expectation that prices will continue to fall

Glad to see everyone putting OP in his place. OP you should be ashamed lmao! How underwater are you on your little wrist trinket (err I mean… “investment”)?

Those of us who were hoping that prices would return to some sense of normal are still here. Never hoped for crash instead just want to buy the watch I want from AP at retail. Still working on that.

Prices still aren't low enough. 14790s used to be around $10k. RO QP were $30k.

Those days aren't coming back.

What’s the next move?
Raise price in the 60s since fire sale is over?

Or drop to mid-30s in line with actual market prices?
