so much for the exclusive nature & traditional purchasing aspects of the Rolex collection/brand...it has now gone mainstream to the point where one can easily purchase a family-sized pack of toilet paper along with a new Oyster all in one convenient shopping trip.
are Walmart & Target next? |

Does Costco have in-house financing?
I would buy a subC if they had 3-5 year zero interest like mattress. |

When the new Citi Visa comes out from Costco, it will count towards a 2% rebate.

Here's the one I saw at Costco last week. So many Rolex choices at Costco! Now you can buy a giant box of soap, 50 pounds of catchup, and a shiny new Rolex all in one trip!!

How much was the Breitling just below it going for? The two-tone one? Thanks!

I guess it is just another revenue stream for Rolex. If I were a local AD I would be pissed off at Rolex! AD's are loosing sales to Costco.

The coolest thing about buying Rolex at Costco is not only do they offer you a Diet Coke, you get a hot dog also. Try getting that experience at an AD.

I may be missing a joke, but am I the only one that isn't bothered by this? Will someone please explain this seemingly overwhelming sense of disgust I'm seeing from members here?

Is Cosco an authorized dealer ? That would be surprising, but how else are they getting all these pieces? Do they come with full Rolex warranties, papers, etc that you'd get at a local jewelry store AD? Are they grey market? And are those full List prices or discounts?

Another Rolex spotted at Costco
Quote:
Hey John. Mostly in good fun...I think 👺😆 These COSTCO sightings seem to be a source of *intense* fascination for some folks...ergo the need to post a photo when the opportunity presents itself. Rinse and repeat. I'm trying to understand the fascination. I'll admit that I'm not there yet. Not sure I will get there, but that's ok. Therefore you'll see all degrees of comments - much like whenever the Leopard Daytona or a Bamford Blacked out watch is posted. |

Grey market is just that, not sure why this is a surprise to people unless they have some illusion that there is something special about a mass produced piece of jewelry.

So a good find in an unexpected market? Like a Ferrari for sale in a trailer park? |

I bought my Speedmaster Professional BNIB from a grey market dealer for about $600 less than MSRP. Works just fine and keeps better time than my Rolex, to be completely honest. If I was in the market for a new Rolex, grey market dealers would be the first place I look (after the For Sale section here of course). |

That's a pretty good price for the DJ, isn't it?
