Do I want to pay $30-$40K more (retail is $75K vs $115K) no..lol. but never say never... If I can get more confidence buying second hand, that might changes things a bit.
Oh RM will be happy to take your $3-$5k (just throwing out numbers) on a full service as long as the watch is authentic and not stolen.

I will tell you a story of a friend this week that was dead set on a particular RM, tried it on and didn't like it. Then saw a pic of 030 and said "it's perfect", went to try it on and said "too small and plain"...point is you MUST try on RM (I know broken record), but pics are often very different than reality.

As always, buy the seller then buy the watch.
