BadApple 13,220 Posted November 16, 2023 (edited) 9 hours ago, Mystery Shopper said: It looks like he posted the QC pics. The QC pics show a YM with a falcon dial. He must have approved the QC pics for the watch to be sent. The watch then arrived and now he is unhappy because he doesn't like the dial and made a first post stating this. Now, @BadApple called the guy a Noob (are you still keeping up @GingerJesus) & this is where it gets interesting because the Ginger is confused by this..... BadApple may have called the guy a noob (no point remembering his name because he hasn't dropped in since) as: he posted QC pics (a no no) the pics showed the dial clearly but he didn't say 'I don't want that one' he then approved QC pics of something he didn't want he gets the watch and then decided he doesn't like it he makes a negative first post rather than speaking with the dealer the negative first post could read as an ad for a back door sale BadApple might have had a bad day and rather than explain all this to the first poster, just decided to call him a noob. Are you still keeping up Ginge? Once @GingerJesus was confused, I think @BadApple decided to repeat dot point seven with @GingerJesus because its fun. Did that help Ginge? Much of this is my fault. I forgot I am not Ginger and that only Ginger people think they own this forum and have sole rights to take the piss or be critical / make derogatory remarks. For this I apologise for getting ideas above my station. I hope his myopia and premature dementia gets better and he makes a full recovery. For my part I have made a £10 donation to Gingers Of Diversity which ironically is an acronym of what he thinks he is.

FudgyDocker 3,509 Posted November 16, 2023 Well, seeing as the OP doesn't seem to want to engage in his own thread and indicate what he isn't 'thrilled' about, I'd call it "thread overboard", and he is completely deserving of any abuse that comes his way. Love these one-hit wonders that dive on and join here after a perceived less-than-satisfactory transaction, never to be seen again. Fuck 'em, I say. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FudgyDocker 3,509 Posted November 16, 2023 And instead, he's got us sniping at each other. Where is the value in that? I know that some of us can be twats sometimes, but come on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GingerApple 7,304 Posted November 16, 2023 2 hours ago, FudgyDocker said: And instead, he's got us sniping at each other. Not so. I asked BA a perfectly polite and anodyne question and in response just got a tirade of abuse that continues. 7 hours ago, Devil said: OP is now gone... never to return... If that's true, it's a shame. TB99 has stated many a time that we should be nicer to noobs or this site will die a slow death. Did this guy's initial comment really deserve such immediate abuse? Personally, I don't thinks so. Perhaps I'm missing something, but BA didn't explain himself so I guess I'll never know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can usually tell the calibre of a noob by their first post. Most of us can work out which ones are likely to stick around. I wonder how many of our 114,000 members have just one single post against their profile, and haven't visited since? Maybe a simple SQL query will tell us.

Maybe a simple SQL query will tell us. My first ever post on here back when I joined in May 1986 was...... "My AAA Rolex Speedmaster Big Pilot Ranger watch from AAANoobytime.biz has arrived but is covered in ginger pubes and dried semen" I've been backdoor selling ever since so maybe I have been a bit premature (sorry Ginger twat) in my response here.

Indeed as it's a pre-raid franken gen (fully serviced) and has spare links and 22 leather straps as part of the package. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nope, just didn't understand why you were abusing this chap, hence my perfectly polite question. 3 hours ago, BadApple said: www.onlywankerskeepchangingtheirusername.com Fyi, I've never changed my username.

OP's dial from his QC above - standard black as he says he ordered and wanted Falcon Eye Textured dial version that the OP seems to think he's been sent / Ginger twat can't grasp Edited November 16, 2023 by BadApple Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philiusmaximus 5,065 Posted November 16, 2023 As a non-rolex guy this has been a very informative thread. I didn't know anything about a falcon eye or what it is. And still don't. And probably won't try to find out. But still, I now know that something about some yachtmasters has something to do with a falcon's eye. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BadApple 13,220 Posted November 16, 2023 Trying to understand what the Ginger Narcissist is getting at I have taken time off to study the OP in more detail. It would appear to me that the very basic communication skills of the OP is at a similar level to the Ginger one (who is trying to groom him) and that the OP actually requested /ordered a Falcon's Eye BUT ended up with a plain dial. "Arrived today. Not thrilled with it. Up for discussion. Bought a solid black dial" Perhaps if he had spoken English his comment should have said "ordered" not "bought" or maybe even "sent" then the post would have made perfect sense. When he gets back with his puppies and sweets from this afternoons school run he could take stock of this and apologise to everyone for his lack of intelligence and that of his new "Schofield Runner" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
