Just got the call...Incomming!!

Hi, you may know me from such posts as "Dealer Requirements"...LOL

Well, he just called me to tell me my Submariner came in and it's waiting for me.

I did mention that I thought for sure I would be passed up, but he said that I've been a good customer and they don't want to harm that relationship.

So I guess there are still good Salespeople at AD's trying their best with the current situation.

Anyway...I will post pictures for sure once I have it this evening.

Didn't think I'd be this excited, but I am.

And yes, using my CC to buy it....

Give me a break. I don't know why everyone puts ADs on a pedestal. It's not like they're a struggling business.

cc fees are deductible, so not a complete loss.

lmao I can't believe how much bootlicking some people do...

Congrats OP - you won't be disappointed with a sub. In my mind, there's only two Rolex's a person absolutely must own at some point - a Sub and a GMT Master II.

I’m not sure why so many people have their panties in a bunch about CC fees? It’s part of the business and what the establishment agrees upon when they sign up to process those transactions.

Really glad to hear it Jagamov. I replied to you in your other thread.

Now you get the watch and don't have to be reminded of the time you bent over for an AD.

Not arguing on the use of card as I too agree with most that it's part of the cost of doing business, but so in the end there really is NO "requirement", just a strong "preference"? Felt like maybe you made a bigger deal out of it than necessary, turning your own speculation into like it was a "must" situation....? Either way congratulations on the score, and hopefully the relationship continues to grow from here?

You are not wrong. It was just a weird request to me (I've never wired money, ever) and it seemed very 11th hour. In any event, I told him my preference and apparently they are ok with it. Guess they figured they could try and benefit off my impatience.

Congrats to sticking to your guns and prevailing.

Cant believe how many ppl are on the AD’s side to succumb to their wire “request”. Acting like the CC fees will make or break their business
