Only time ever i passed on a watch too (one that i asked for). I have passed on stuff they offered that i didn't ask for though which is no big deal because i didn't ask for it. So no real drama or a falling out, more of a passive aggressive response

Wow thats a big move! I can't even imagine how difficult it is... I remember the last time I moved, it was only a couple miles and with just my 1 year old daughter and that was a hassle already. But glad to hear you're doing well and see you back!

He has worn all his watches for a long period & none of them were new nor did he get them for the intention to flip so i doubt the AD he uses thinks he was a flipper. If a AD heard you bought another large value watch from somewhere else it would in these times disappoint them and the AD would think that you dont need them by giving your business to someone else and they in this case unfortunately are giving the cold shoulder. No need to bash others here

Of course it is still different to what JSW7 did with his 5711R and 5711A but it is still called flipping. |

I have no clue how you and a full family pulls a move like that unless you're replacing most of big items/furniture. We just moved from an apartment to our first condo a few months. It was a 2 bedroom unit and only a 2 mile move to Century City. This process was an utter nightmare for us. Cannot begin to imagine moving a whole family from the UK to Texas! Here's to rest of the process going smoothly and welcome back! |

I suppose we could have done temporary accommodations had we not planned on replacing most of the big stuff but then its another move on top of everything else so i think we planned ahead pretty well

Moved back to Houston... they don’t let you stay 9 years is the limit and we were at 8. Figured it was time to move on as feeling temporary all the time wears on you Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just moved the other way... NYC to London with two small kids. Draining is not the word!! At least balance is somewhat restored with one WIS in each direction! :)

What happened to tyler1980
Today should be fun. 7 weeks to cross the Atlantic, clear customs, and get to the front door... also that big dent in the side wasn't there when they packed it. awesome

Agree.
Moving was a real bear for us. I’d hate to have to do it again.

Definitely have your priorities straight. Opening those first should certainly make unpacking the others a little more interesting/bearable. Best of luck with the unpacking!
