Dear sir, since you have a purchase history that allows you to purchase SS Patek for MSRP would you please use that history to buy for me?

Sounds like me begging for the 5650 years back when everyone said it was hideous. Epic fail on my end but I think I was offering a lousy 5k finder’s fee. (Full disclaimer we did not know it was going to be a 6 figure watch)

Many members will just ask a bunch of people and see if they get any takers. A few years ago maybe this was doable but in this market everyone knows what is going to be worth what and I highly doubt people are putting their ass on the line for strangers.
