I've seen a few Omegers and a pair of Cartiers at Costco. I snuck in, slipping past the guy checking papers. I don't pay a fee just to buy things. No no no

You go to Costco just to window shop?

......and if it is the 118208....run even faster

Also I like the display...holding the pad with the DD in place - by using the box's closing tension...
It's new. I had a manager open the case and let me take a look. This Costco is also notorious for selling 4 & 5 $figure$ bottles of wine, scotch and brandy during the holidays.

This was pulling out of the gas station at this same Costco just a couple of weeks ago. A Ferrari Enzo. About $1.5M. I bet this lad has some great Costco receipts!

^ Or not; you can't fit many of those big boxes into those things...


BTW, I remember seeing a TT DJ at a Costco about 10 years ago; I was pretty surprised.

Next visit will be in a year, and I will see if they still have the stand, and might pick up a vintage Sub.
These are being sold by an NEXES approved Vendor, not NEXES or AAFES themselves. Saw the same ones. Price were high

I was just in my local Costco, they had Brietling's, MAvado, Raymond Weil, Tag's, etc and a Cartier that was nice, but no Rolex.

I remember our funny discussions about Costco a few months ago Eric, you definitely need to go there soon!

This has to be the perfect car to stock a pack of 96 toilet paper rolls...
