+1 on he must be drunk, that was cra cra madness of a piss drunk New Yorker. It was very sad to see one unravel like that. I agree that no one bought the watch and that's a front. High dollar frankens seem to hang around awhile, especially this time of year and so much controversy surrounding the price. If someone did buy it I can't see them posting after reading the rips on it, the price point, and his tantrum. I Also can't imagine anyone spending that much on rep that you can't insure.

Man this is going to be one helluva hangover of regret, not a pretty day. He deserves far worse though after that nonsense.

I have a theory on the imaginary buyer and our less than stable seller. They are one in the same, and seeing the news on Shia LeBeouf it might be him too, he saw bumble bee and thought it might be a transformer! https://www.google.com/search?q=shi...k7fKAhXEXD4KHUbHCHgQvwUIGigA&biw=1366&bih=612

Someone just got an expensive lesson in the difference between dead compressive and live lateral loading. :D

Or, on a more basic level, a live demonstration of the difference between normal and shear stress :)

The other thing that occurred to me about a f*cking $6.5K replica watch is that you can only sell it on a forum like RWI to a small number of people, compared to a real vintage piece of the same price. And as often as we all flip watches, it makes no sense to dump so much money into a watch. Hell even the majority of people who build a franken bluesy end up dumping them for $5K just to go buy a gen for a couple of more thousand.

For f*ck's sake, you can buy a new sub for $6.5K off TRF, then once you're bored of it, sell it again for the same f*cking price.

6.5k on a rep AP is crazy. No way I'd even go close to that level of nuts. If it were a Phong masterpiece of something that's 100k with a gen Patek or VC movement in it then maybe but not on something like that.

Our pal looks to have vanished when the logic came out huh?

I would have trouble spending $6500 on any rep, simply because I can get a gen of something I would really want at that price, possibly even multiple

Lmao, I'm so glad that sales thread ended up like this. Says he's not showing off then he just keeps running his mouth showing off. I'm ashamed to share the same state as him.

F him, who cares what his excuse is, not me. Anyone trying to sell a rep in that price range should expect lots of questions. I mean I'd question the shit out of someone selling a gen in that price range also. That's a lot of funds to buy something from someone you don't know and like I said before he's an idiot for spending that much on a rep in the first place.

My man has spoken !!

The builder of buildings needs to invest time in character building. And for that, he's already a man short.

Unfortunately the foundations of his character proved to be as shaky as [MENTION=11620]trailboss99[/MENTION] 's lateral loading post. He would need to level his character and build from the foundations up. A lot of work needed there. In my biased opinion he would be better off spending his vast fortunes on personal development, not buying expensive, "boost your ego for a few hours" reps, too many people have got caught up in using material items as vehicles for emotions, when the vehicle comes to a crash, or is criticized in any way, as we have seen it sure gets ugly.

Ouch, it's disappointing to see so many members turning on each other.

I will miss Schumi's posts (not the ones in this threat of course!), it's a shame to lose an established member. But warnings are warnings.
