Help! Getting that flippin' feeling.

It's happening again...I've got a watch I like but I'm thinking about flipping it again because I'm really missing my flipped Sub C LV. Does anyone know a good therapist on the forum? Perhaps they can do a weekly post and start with the topic "Chronic Flipping". Discuss.

Could still take a couple of days, Dan. French mail is SLOW. Remember my friend, don't leave your house until they (or the kobe beef) arrive. It's worth the wait and, on top of it all, you'll have a fine a**-groove in your couch for the effort.

I was about to flip my watches, but I decided against it... flipping is bad... adding without flipping is good.

Ok, I was starting to get worried. They were predicting thunderstroms and hail, but since there still coming, I'll wait right here by my mailbox.

Adding good, flipping bad.

I wish I had the disposable income to just add and not flip. Anyone know any large crime-bosses with little patience I can borrow money from? Or wait, how many Rolexes can a kidney buy?

Does it come with boxes and papers? And what's the service history? Does it come with all the nephrons? Or do I have to count them???
