i think a black card is more effective. The more money you have the less you deal in cash it seems. Carrying that much cash implies its a major purchase... not that its just a normal wednesday.

The day I set foot in the store I have not been demanding or even talked much about what I want. Now from some of my Other post you will notice I have had some bad experiences with other branch locations so I now chose to only go to this AD. Cool group of guys and I hope they fufill all my orders. I don’t feel Privileged to buy from them but the OP asking joe to stay fresh on the AD mind. Good luck on the Pepsi find. I hope you get it Sooner than later |

Exercise your right to public demonstration and hold a sign out front that says "where's my Rolex?", and bring a megaphone and chant "what do we want? Rolex! When do we want it? In less than 2 years!"
Then they bump you to the top of the list. |

There are really many great watches in the World. Rolex is just one brand. There is no sense in being so fixated on a specific brand or reference. It should not be a "must have" aspect of your life. Sucking up to one retailer just to score one "grail" strikes me as being somewhat unhealthy. If you start losing sleep over not scoring a specific watch seeking professional help might be in order.
My shrink wears a Valjoux Daytona. I tried to rip it off his wrist on my second visit. Since then he holds a stun gun during my appointments. |

This whole idea of getting on bended knee for an AD is absoultely ridiculous. Either go vintage, move to another brand or wait until this current craziness dissipates. It's your $$ after all and who cares what other fat cats may be willing to pay in order to curry favor? They are still making around 40% profit, so to cater to them for one's hard earned money is a non-starter for me at least. Waiting in hopes of a call that may never come doesn't make sense to me. I'd rather spend my time and $$ where I have some control.

I spray "tagged" the roller shutter blind of my local AD protective window when they were closed!
I drew a massive picture of "DAVE" from the Minions film.....now I hope they will be reminded of me everytime they open up.....or until my court appearance at least! |

There is always the spell your name in gasoline in the parking lot and light it up strategy. Fairly certain they would remember you for that!

In Germany and i think Spain public nudity is legalwise not forbidden. Might get in the AD stark naked with a sock around your ##@$f0rbidden# and a leather belt around you with a big purse and they would certainly remember you.. After you can still bring them donuts every now and than.
