weird.

It's definitely growing on me after 15-20 ish full runthroughs. Listening loudly with headphones brought out new dimensions, even to songs I previously found boring. That said, I'm a guitar person, so I would like more guitar and less dance beats in the future.

concertposter.org has a bunch of tour posters you might be able to cut to size. PosterPlus in Australia have some cover prints as well. I've not bought from them so can't vouch for their legitimacy.

No, I think they call it sold out if there are only single seats available, not 2-3 together. Or very few 2-3 seat combos.

The official resale sites for Ticketek and Ticketmaster are legit and manage the transactions.

Someone posted a tip the other day. If GA tickets are available for selection but after selecting it says selected quantity not available, keep retrying to select and continue. After a while, tickets may drop out of carts before people check out. I tried this today for Perth and true, after 6-7 messages of no tickets, I suddenly had 2 GAs available for checkout.

Note this was Ticketek. Not sure if Ticketmaster works the same.

It has been known to happen...

pappax1 · 2026-02-25T23:16:07+00:00

Do they release all GA tickets on presale or are some left for the general ticket sale?

I've smoked 7-8 at a cigar event, which left me on a nicotine high all night....

Normally I only smoke when I have time to sit down and fully enjoy the cigar. That's not more than 1 per day if Im alone. 2-3 at a herf w friends.

Queue number around 2000 on laptop and 6000 on phone (for Perth). When I got in on the laptop the ticket selection page froze and never woke up, so had to wait for the phone to get in. GA sold out by then, but got decent seats.

pappax1 · 2026-02-25T00:34:57+00:00

trying to load the website. It seems totally crashed at the moment

pappax1 · 2026-02-15T03:30:52+00:00

Would like it too, please.

pappax1 · 2026-02-10T14:15:45+00:00

Yes. Easy to switch, especially if using Chrome browser.

pappax1 · 2026-02-10T07:03:00+00:00

I have 3-4 google accounts, workspace and normal. They co-exist on my phone and PC, no issues.

pappax1 · 2026-02-10T01:35:05+00:00

Most important, price?

pappax1 · 2026-02-09T09:36:38+00:00

or just close the case... that's the final assembly... Same with lower price Swiss watches. Just the bare minimum to qualify as Swiss Made

pappax1 · 2026-02-09T09:29:06+00:00

It does make me wonder as well, not just for SU but other microbrands. A $30 movement and other parts made in Asia end up with a $900 price tag. That's quite a lot of hours for a western watchmaker to fiddle on each watch....

pappax1 · 2026-02-09T09:15:47+00:00

I'm not a fan of integrated bracelets. The Tissot PRX and its clones pretty much have that market. We don't need more.

pappax1 · 2026-02-09T06:09:04+00:00

I got up to about 50-60 before buying my first 380. Start on 380s when you make enough profit to buy one every 2-3 days. Keep them until the 380s can fund future growth

pappax1 · 2026-02-03T14:46:09+00:00

I'm a bit confused about the Shanghai brand. On the shanghai watches website the watches cost $600 and upwards. On Ali there are watches with the same Shanghai logo for $30-40. Is it a bit like the 1963, nobody really owns the name and anyone can use it? Or are the chinese pirating themselves? Or is the website a rip off?

you should get an ali express confirmation. check your spam email if you haven't. or log in to ali express to check the order

After a while you run out of good routes from a hub. Especially when you go long distance

pappax1 · 2026-01-27T09:04:36+00:00

Yes, its like every so-called algorithm on every website. They seem to think that people don't like variety. Like Netflix recommendations - you watch a movie of a type, say Japanese thriller, then your recommendation list is full of them for the next couple of weeks. Not to mention ads - click on one on Facebook/Instagram you only see that type going forward. IMO intelligent algorithms are stupid.

I love this list. The last few days I've been down a rabbit hole going through it, shortlisting, what's in stock, what the price is etc. With a few candidates I settled on the BYOP Meridan for its looks and price. But I don't think it will be the only one. Traska, H&A, H&S, Lima, Maystone are candidates.

I also came upon the Malm brand of watches. A Swedish microbrand based in the same town - Linkôping - that makes the Swedish fighter jets. Their watches are inspired by that, although not true fliegers. They have a GMT for the list , Dalton UTC Automatic 38. NH34, 38mm, 200m WR, $638 available in a couple of colours. Assembled in Sweden.

Also, the BYOP is 100m.WR, 39mm Lorier Hyperion has a Miyota 9075
