    Was at Russell Korman yesterday getting a link taken out and BS a little with the sales lady.  The Rolex watches they have on display are not theirs.  They are rep watches from Rolex so customers can see different models.  They change them out frequently.  They do not have any in stock that you can purchase.  You get on a waiting list and pay retail whenever that comes in.  My 118 series day/date is trading at $34,600.  Plain rose gold/stainless date is $15,000.  Platinum chronograph $77,500.  They are waiting for their first shipment of preowned and reconditioned Rolex watches.  Told me Rolex is getting into this space in a big way and expects to dominate the resale game.  

    I've bought several watches from Korman and am a pretty decent spender there. They lie to my face about watches all the time. Can't really trust what they tell you in store...it's a big turn off.

    I need to grab a Rolex for a gift. The AD I’ve used for a couple purchases here in ATX said you can’t even order them like I had previously…choosing face, band, etc…and a few months later it was here.

    I know the “shortage” is a bit nuts and the after market is big…just curious what sources any of y’all may have used for a Rolex recently? Chrono24? Any other places I should check out? Will want new.

    TIA

    which reference are you looking for?

    I got to fly fish for the second time this year and it really is addicting. The gift of having to really concentrate; be present and learn is amazing. Nothing like standing in a river all day!

    This is from the cimmarron river outside of eagle nest, NM. Only caught one small brown and this rainbow but can’t beat river therapy.

    Very nice! I fished the cimmarron (probably very close to your picture) about 2 weeks ago. Used a guide from Taos fly shop. Had a great trip.

    How can i get a stainless panda Daytona for sticker, Surly? I'm not paying secondary.

    And yes, I'm fully prepared for the Caddyshack " well, then you ain't getting no Coke" answer if that's what it is.

     

    Let the AD bang your wife

    Up 68% from last year. 
     

    It’s still probably less than I could sell it for, but I ain’t moving. 

    the new david weekly build on my street appraised for over 2M. Taxes went from 10k to 36K. Guess I can never remodel or rebuild my house...

    Anybody successfully gotten the car dealership, working with one of the covert dealerships, to remove these "protection packages" from the cost or purchase?

    Walk away seems to be my lone strat. They are dug in.

     

    Just bought a new truck at leif johnson and had them remove the $1800 tint/lojack/bedliner charge. I test drove the truck and none of that stuff had been installed yet, so I told my sales guy that I was ready to make a deal but I wasn't willing to pay a penny for that crap. They took it off the bill...
