COOP

Thats quite a potty mouth you got there.

You win to many raffles Pug! Take your luck to a casino and give the rest of us nerds a shot!

If your in the US TWP is FAST, I have gotten stuff from silix in 3 days, Josh and andrew both on average 4-10 days. WBK and Narikaa are fast as well.

seeing the pic of the bar [censored] in the "No Rolex- No sex" shirt reminds me of a story I heard a while back... seems some gold diggin' bar sluts would cruise the scene looking for candidates in high end watches, Daytonas, etc. Have a few too many drinks, go home with their mark, get them naked, watch included, show them a good time, then slip out in the middle of the night, with the watch.

I would recommend you keep your watch on if you find yourself in that situation.

And if you attend swinger parties, it is best to wear something that you don't mind losing or misplacing! Otherwise leave it at home... this includes your watch.

I hope you didnt take me seriously, I was just posting a fun pithy answer. In reality I never take my watch off because I am usually doing the filming of my wife and others. Although sometimes if I am feeling froggy I may make some of the girls put on a rollie or an IWC to "bling" up the shot.

Again, just having fun with an answer. I'm realy quite normal, seriously!

There are other dealers claiming this as well, I think King and others. Plus some are claiming eta copy. All sounds pretty fishy give the past on this watch.

My wife and I may leave ours on. If we trust the couple we are swinging with they might come off, but otherwise they stay on. Cant be to careful, wouldnt want to leave it on a night stand during a swingers party and then have to ask dozens of people if they have seen it!

New asian 7750 I believe. I am in! This is my first lottery on this board, maybe I will get lucky!

Big topic, 60 members, I believe I saw 77 earlier.

I believe Rolex has the best sub!

As D4M said, we are being watched, we may not want to talk about solutions so openly!!!!!!!!

Trunk21 is correct.

D4M is absolutly correct.

Rep will never go away. There have been reps as long as there have been gens most likely. But getting them could become increasingly difficult.

I dont know if I see any jail time for any of us. But a few dealer take downs are not out of the question.

VIP membership is a start, but as I stated elsewhere, we also need some sort of ID verification, otherwise whats to stop anyone from "paying their way in".

By the way, I am not a vip here, but I am elsewhere.

It sucks, for sure. But we need to "fly under the radar"as By-tor said a while back. We have been way to public, and it has bit us in the ass. If the purge of low and no posts members occurs I may get flushed here and at trc. But it may be a price that some of us may have pay.

Good to see my homeboy is on it!

Thanks Tim!

From my post this morning on RWI:

Not trying to belittle our ability to make change in any way, just trying to figure out how big a piece of the pie we are.

On Joshs site there is a hit counter at the very bottom on the right side. It reads as of right now 3,734,009 since July 05, thats about 4100 hits a day. And that just Josh. If this number is accurate and you add in all the other dealers with sites, and the dealers without sites, it makes us look like a smaller piece. Some one RWG mentioned that the replica industry is WAY bigger then any of us know,

http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showto...3455&st=420

If this is true, the BIG 4 may not give a rats ass about these forums. It would also mean that the dealers are getting links from other places then just our forums.

Is there any way to tell just how big a ball this is?

@manu_72: You have a good point, but since I posted the original number, the hit count has gone up over 500 hits in less than 45min. If they average only 300 hits an hour it would mean around 7200 hits a day. Which would put them on pace for WAY over my intial number. By the way, B9 has a hit counter as well, theirs is at 9,372,539 since April 05. Thats almost 260,400 hits a month, and they have not been with US that long. And would also put them way ahead of josh.

And I was'nt saying our vote wouldnt count, Just that we may not be as big a deal to them as we think.

I know hit counters may not mean anything, Any body here know any solid numbers on the rep business?

I like dealing with Jay as well. He has been good me. I am interested to see what he has in the works.

Poor Puggy! Banned for life! I guess all he did was get some people thinking. Dont know for sure. He did author "Little White Lies", was this the begining of the end for him there?

Gotta have Ms Ricci with me! Yeah, 1st post here, I only have a few on the TRC as well, I just dont have the time to bounce between all these boards! Plus I type really slow, a which is a real deficit when posting lots.

RWI is on page 4 now. Lots of opions, but no looney bin this time. I dont post here muc(if ever?) But I love reps and watches, I hope this gets better, things could get quite ugly.

What up Pugs! Miss ya over there, but I may have to do some more posting abroad.
