Flippers are dead

For the sake of variety do you ever post anything remotely positive?

My posts are positive, unless you are a flipper.

An end to shortages, travel functioning as normal. Economies returning to normal after the COVID disaster. Flippers having to get to jobs and work for a living...

Maybe, spivs regretted the end of the war but for the vast majority it was good news. Lower prices is good news for watch enthusiasts.

In the bubble physiological model anger follows denial.

prognosis like "we will never see XXX again" are indeed a bit extreme.

reminds me when analysts were saying a few years ago that we will NEVER EVER see oil prices above USD 70 anymore.

that said, i would not bet on a return to MSRV either, so if there's a watch i really want, i buy it now, life is way too short to play multi-year market timing games..

Thanks for the morning laugh

All your posts are negative cut and paste jobs bemoaning the way the world is in the vain hope that your incessant complaining will bring about change for your own benefit.

News for you here, it won't.

And the rest of your post just shows how woefully out of touch with the reality of the world today that you actually are.

The world is a very different place these days and if you really can't see that then maybe you should actually spend a bit more time in it (the real world) and less time spouting post war diatribes about "spivs"

p.s. Do you actually own/buy any watches in the last, say, 2/3 years or just talk (well, moan) about them?

Really? ANOTHER thread about this?
