Hah - I am always surprised to see how many Americans on this forum that actually hates the free market. I have a suspicion that the thinking is “I love the free market.....unless it to my disadvantage!”

Its like people who buy multi million dollar homes then default on them. I am not happy peoples lives will be ruined but I will happily buy that house for 50% off on the back side. Free market win. |

The free market is great when grays are supplying watches at a 20% discount from MSRP. But anyone daring to charge over MSRP should go down in flames! I am not saying you have said this, but have seen quote a few posts in this forum along these lines. |

I hope the greys squirreled their profits away while the getting was good because the party of the century is over, possibly forever. |

I’ll be so happy to have true WIS back in the game. It was so much better 10 years ago discussing watches. Nowadays EVERYTHING circled back to money/investment/profit/availability. Just want to return to buying watches because you like them and being appreciative if it holds 75% its value.

And also, unless a person or a business have treated you badly, it says a lot about a person to hope of someone’s else demise - it is absolutely possible to hope for prices to go back down, without anybody’s business going under. But then again - I remember one of your earlier posts, where you didn’t really mind some people suffering if it meant that you could get your Sky-Dweller quicker, so not really surprised. |
