Moreover, you simply stating that the sales price is within 5% of asking stands unsupported. Until you provide real numbers (like many members including myself have been doing in this thread), you’re not saying much. Try to be a little more insightful.

Moda is certainly useful for a quick pulse directionally. And people at work do shop there and partner with the major brands and resellers for onsite meetings and sales as well.

Keep in mind that Moda sellers also post cross-platform so they don't necessarily always go back to mark sold. |

I disagree with your statement. The sheer volume of transactions on moda makes it more than a “quick directional” check. It’s essentially a dealer clearing house and is probably the most transparent and real indication of what these watches are worth. If folks are paying a lot more than what’s listed on moda then IMO that is a mistake.

All this back and forth on people asking prices has anyone actually bought anything since the dip? I mean if you haven’t bought by now then what are you waiting for? Might as well keep waiting for an AD to contact you

Prices are dropping weekly/daily. Why buy now if you're in no hurry? This wasn't a short term drop.

I'm waiting until dmash and Vince tell me that my 26420s or 26240s have bottomed out... Which I'd anticipate is only in Q1 2023 if at all.

I personally will wait until the pieces I want are at MSRP or less (like they've historically been). I surmise this'll happen mid next year.

Mint full set Pepsi on jubilee - $17.25k. Remember when a poster said the market was $19k?

The luxury watch segment is $42b. Total online sales are < 30%. The MODA FB group is a tiny, tiny, tiny fraction of that. This is why people say that MODA is not the market.

This is a hot thread so I'll preface my comment by saying I am not being argumentative or disagreeing with you, but I am curious to see the sources of this information so I can read about it and learn more. Can you share links?

There are lots of reports available, you can choose which data sources to believe on your own, as there are slight differences in what they each include and exclude. I haven’t heard even the staunchest MODA fan claiming that their FB group represents tens of billions of dollars in watch sales. |

the market is the market. If the sellers on Moda can get better prices elsewhere they would, so you can argue on the margin that prices on Moda are a bit less than they would be elsewhere but to dismiss it is silly. It's the equivalent of selling a used Ferrari in Los Angeles vs in Wisconsin. Demand in LA is higher so the Ferrari in Wisconsin will find its way to the LA market if it can sell for more.

You do have to make a distinction between wholesale and retail though…seems to me like Moda is mainly dealer to dealer. I’d imagine it’s only a tiny fraction of retail clients on there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

You'd be surprised these days. It used to be mostly dealers, and for sellers it still mainly is, but there's a ton of retail buyers as well.

Once you join the group and browse it's really hard to shop anywhere else IMHO. The prices are best around. |

Fact: the **buy** price for greys is in these chat groups/forums. What we are waiting for: the **buy** price for greys goes close to (under?) retail. Why is this limit important? Flippers, corona/backpack traders will have no more margin if they buy from ADs or ADs' customers. So what? Waiting list at AD's will shrink at eyesight. (Most of the people in the lists put their name to make money only and had no interest for watches. Even SAs were fed up with it.) And? We will finally be able to buy again what we really love with a decent wait time. We are waiting for collecting watches with pleasure again... Most of us are so fed up to play the AD games, prosti*ue ourselves for SAs' attention, etc. Such an horrible experience. :( PS: of course some people want these prices because they are interested by a specific ref to buy. |
