Gray Market Prices

Look, it was a joke. And I could give a rats ass if he paid over retail for it. He got what he wanted and his time was worth more than the wait, I could care less. You are sticking up for your boy and that's cool and all, but unnecessary. It was a joke and if that's what got him (and now you) all bent out of shape, I don't know what to say. Your money, do with it what you like. I'll remember not to make jokes at the expense of a couple of soft NY boys again.

You couldn’t just let it go? You had to continue making comments.

What’s actually comical is that you call someone else soft.

You take pot shots all the time. You get called out and it just eats at you. You just can’t let it go. Talk about soft. It’s an Internet forum. And your only getting what you dish out. Yet it appears you can’t even see that.

This’ll likely get closed. Likely it should. And too bad too. All because you got called out and got a taste of what you call “speaking your mind”.

2 of DSW's recent listings this month on his website (not listed on the forums) were around 41K/42K for BNIB. Both are gone now.

P.S. IBTL.

P.P.S. SAVAGE!

Was catching up on this thread after watching season 2, episode 2... and kept seeing “SAVAGE”, so seemed appropriate! It’s ashame the show wasn’t renewed for season 3. Being from the same college era as the main characters, have really been enjoying it.

Punky was smoking when she was on Saved by the Bell for that one episode. She was loaded up top too. +1 for punky.

But nobody beats Kelly Kapowski. I’ll fight anyone who tells me otherwise.

I would personally be hesitant to snitch on someone and potentially cost them 6 figures in damages or more and then talk about it on the internet.

You never know what people are capable of. That said, I understand that people do it. That’s life.

I also believe the selling an item is just that. Does not matter if you’re DavidSW or joe blow.

PS: if these hypebeasts catch a whiff of taste the 5164 will keep climbing :)

Everybody should just chill and enjoy the beauty of Patek Philippe watches ;)

Have to say the 5164 on both a & r variants is growing on me.

Also this thread aside V25V is a good guy and went well out of his way to help me get a strap that my AD couldn’t get me.

Context is often lost on the forums and I would imagine this conversation with us all at a pub would be much different

I was a summer associate at the law firm where her sister works. Brilliant and beautiful woman.

I assume there will be ramifications after this incident even though there was no sales yet..

Glad it made you happy to report this hideous crime

Awesome thread

[BillA]

Patek and AD’s don’t want to sell to flippers? They have a policy against it? BS.
Show me in writing, I’m from Missouri.
Hey ichi, when you call Patek I wonder if the laugh their ass off after your call?

[Bearxj86]

I glossed over all the trolling.

It's pretty amazing that there has been a rally in the past 90 days.

5711R - Was trading at 60 and now in low to mid 70s
5711A - I see them listed around 55k and climbing
5164A - Used to be low 30s now high 30s
5712A - Used to trade in mid to high 40s, now mid 50s and Davidsw even listed at mid 60s
5990 and 5980 prices are now pretty absurd (mid 80s)

As a Patek owner. I do like the value retention. However, when a 5980 or 5990 is trading more than a grand complication and near the price of a PCC; something seems off. I was a buyer with 5711 in 40s and 5990 and 5980s in the 60s but anything more seems a bit excessive no?

No, billy-boy, I don't have it in writing. There is a very easy way to test this though. Buy a 5711 from your AD and flip it on the same day here in the sales subforum using your account. I will report to Henri Stern and we can then ascertain if I was spreading fake news.

Better still if you can get the 5740...

This thread is still so SAVAGE!!!!!

Can we get the 5164a in 30s region? Is that a bnib or lnib piece?
