It's pretty easy to stop, we just need to stop buying brand new watches from "secondary dealers" or advising other people to do so.
Things find their market value. Day 1: we all hold hands, draw numbers out of a hat for the order we get a watch and agree not to pay over MSRP. Day 2: I want a Daytona now and offer $200 over MSRP...$200 is nothing right and I get it now instead of 2027 when my turn to buy at MSRP comes up. I had my fingers crossed during the ceremony. Day 3 morning: somebody says they'll pay $500 over. Day 3 after lunch: somebody pays $20,000 over because money means nothing to them or they simply can't wait.
