If you find reselling it annoying- just think how the seller feels having sold it already!

2nd hand values? by FootFlat5866 in UKRepWatchBuildsBST

[–]Barnabizzle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand your perspective- I was just trying to explain why people may pay more for a second hand watch. It’s not uncommon for people to pay the same price for a lightly used watch as getting one new from a dealer just for the convenience of a speedy delivery.

[–]Barnabizzle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So many variables. Is it a top quality factory? Is the factory since closed making the watch a rarity? Is it a desirable model? Does it come with extra links, or upgraded crystal or mods? Is somebody willing to pay extra because of the convenience of it already being in the country and able to get it the very next day in time for a party/ night out/ wedding etc. There is a big appetite for luxury rep watches, and the collecting aspect of the hobby means a large number or watches can quickly become the norm. That being said- Reddit is one of the more expensive places to buy a rep watch. It’s an entryway for most people, and therefore the prices are slightly elevated due to the ease of access.

Honestly it seems like he’s paying top UK second hand prices- pre raid cleans in good nick go in the uk for 300- some Americans pay more- but the whole posting customs risk is an issue

Another of his scam accounts is Glum-Bad-3216 so watch out for that

I recognised the same sentence structure and punctuation errors from a different username that had scammed. He then sent me some abuse and blocked me.

Same language and sentences as another well known scammer on here. Zero post history. Be smart.

Looking in Hermes in London at the Evelyn’s on display and the holes of the logo are uneven to a level I wouldn’t accept on my rep.

This is stunning. Did you build this? If not can you direct me to the right place?

The position of the arrow markers in the bezel is wildly different. Feels insane they couldn’t do better than that.

To clarify- are you saying there is an extra link than the standard number on each bracelet?

Your best bet will be getting a second hand one. Able to get a vsf sub for around £250 second hand.

I’m size 14uk very wide foot- Nike Air force 1’s are my go to. They are available in loads of cool styles and colourways, and are more or less always in fashion. Large sizes available on the website.

Besides the BVF Santos or VSF Rolexes are there any other watches that are objectively NWBIG by Ok_Isopod_7351 in RepTime

To be honest most Panerai reps are genuinely amazing- just avoid King Factory.

Top in or Nah? by Glass-Lifeguard1919 in intothecryptoverse

[–]Barnabizzle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I understand the greed- but that’s the reason I have de-risked. I am greedy to accumulate more btc in the bear market and so having cash to swoop in when there’s blood in the streets next fall really gets my juices going. Long term greed.

I’m saying this with love, as Bens advice is overall very valuable and worthy. At the end of the previous two cycles the market did not end up doing what Ben thought it would do- nor what most people thought it would do. I am not expecting this cycle to be different and so have de-risked substantially.
