The OFFICIAL EBAY DON'T BID ON MY WATCH THREAD

Recommended Posts

houndoggie

Please sticky me!!

 

This thread is for members to list which watch they are currently bidding on so that other members will not get into silly bid wars and everyone gets screwed.

 

Just list the link to the watch and please edit when you win, lose or it expires.

I would suggest that if you are DEFINITELY going to bid on an item/put in a snipe order, you post your item number and the header line here. But don't post items and then don't bid on them, because if you do, other lose the chance to bid.

 

If there are items that are really popular, such as the stealth dial, I would suggest taking turns if a bunch of guys want one. I am good for now, really need to save my dollars for a good fiddy homage... doesn't mean I won't bid on ANYTHING, but I will stay away from stealth dials for sure - bunch of people want those....

 

I would also suggest that we include in our posts our max bid... if the bidding goes higher before the end of the auction, then someone else could come in... Say I like the xxx w/ xxy dial but it goes to $45 two hours before the end of auction and I won't bid higher than $40 - well, if we said our top was $40, then member Z now knows that he can come in (might even post, "I will come in on item 22266444 if I rises above Joe's max of $40....

 

Complicated, but we don't want to end up bidding against each other - only one can win but he will end up paying more....

 

Anyway, just some ideas...

 

Nice! Good luck!

we'd have to use the honor system - I know the regulars will do just that but what about the flybynight lurking troll that logs in, see's a crazy nice watch that they wouldn't have normally seen

 

what's to stop them - I'm sure they couldn't care less if they outbid a fellow member

 

anywho - whatever... :D I have 2 in sniper mode - shhh - you know one of them is that Seiko on your list John - one shot... one kill - nothing but BMG .50 - 19hours to go - the sniper waits patiently in cover for the perfect shot

but I doubt I'll get it at that price

 

 

Good luck to you. I don't see why you wouldn't.

 

But I really hope that it is a real M-12, not one of those fakies.

Multiple Purchase Discount: Sorry, WE DON'T COMBINE SHIPPING. Item is shipped directly from the factory. Shipping and handling (S&H) charges are fixed per item. We offer a deduction of 0.5 GBP or 1 USD from the shipping cost of each additional item, buyers can combine items purchased within 7 days in ONE single payment.

 

I can see they make at least their cost with the shipping - ah whatever, at that price, it's worth just getting a box in the mail to open up from China - I'm not sure that novelty wears out

 

he's got a ton of cheapy homage - all automatic

 

check out the seconds hand on this "SCHAFFER" - that B looks mighty familiar :)
