frogflyer 6 Posted June 17, 2013 Perhaps it wouldn't be a problem if they sold only in china, but exporting puts pressure on the government for action? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kleen™ 45 Posted June 17, 2013 What pressure China would not give a stuff about any pressure from Rolex. Not from the brands - from the international community. It's politics disquised - no more, no less. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
onzenuub 307 Posted June 17, 2013 I suppose we'll have to go an AD now. Dam those Chinese anti-fun communists. Masmannan Some President in the USA declared the war on drugs a lot of years ago. Since than there have been seizures of a lot of 10.000's kilo's cocaine, cocaine labs, millions of dollars, arrests cann't be counted. And still I can buy in The Netherlands top cocaine for a reasonable price ( if I would like to buy it.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nev848 0 Posted June 17, 2013 I work in a few ex communist countries and cannot see why it would be any different in China that a serious blind eye will be turned when western cash is coming in to the country. Also these sweat shops are still keeping people employed. If one has been busted I am sure it will be just for show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

masmannan 0 Posted June 17, 2013 Why would any sane TD want to meet any of us in person..., in fact i'm not really interested in meeting a TD. 'Hello I am Masmannan, I like Reps.' Mary ' very good Masmannan, I sell Reps'. '...hmm lovely weather you have here in GZ'. Mary: 'I was thinking the same thing'. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RussP 22,257 Posted June 17, 2013 Hmmm...........let's just hope it ain't an excuse/reason to jack up prices for these reps.............. Dunno if it is my imagination, but of late prices appear to be heading in the wrong direction. I might just stick with the M2M sales until I'm convinced otherwise.......
