Explorers Over Retail?

Multiple Explorers listed at over retail. I knew the SS shortage was bad but damn...even Explorers? Glad I got mine before all this BS started. And to think I passed on two BLNRs at MSRP....

Really? I thought they were readily available.

Maybe I should flip mine. I've worn it once in the last 4 months.

No way, I don't believe it. I just picked up a mint 5 month old 214270 for $5,000!

I bought my Arabic 214270 about 4 months ago dead mint for $4400. I haven't taken it off since! I think when the SS shortage hit people starting taking a peek at the explorer when they otherwise wouldn't have.
