tabularasa415 Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 So I'm scanning the sales listings at the geek as I usually do at the beginning of every day, and I see a title "G Shock" and I thought, "must be in the wrong forum section." So, I click on it, and it's a rep G-shock. The seller said he bought a bunch of them for $30 a piece. I've seen gens go for close to this. I'm simply thinking out loud, but replicas of a very affordable watch just seem strange to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cougar1 Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 They'd rep any friggen thing, if it has a $ sign in front of it in the west it gets repped! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piskopow Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 God all mighty, why do they copy such a tool watch as a G-shock... have they no market sense at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HartDoc Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 (edited) Errrr. I have a ricky & dee gshock that is valued at $800. A new or collectable frogman Gshock can go for $500-$600 easy.... an atomic solar mudman right now thats around $300-$400 I forget which Gshock is valued at over $2000 OOB Also you can bling out a gshock with diamonds and such..... Some Gshocks are made with titanium and gold There is a jewerly store in new orleans across from harahs that has blinged out gshocks for 10's of thousand of dollars So it would make sense to rep a watch that is made with $10 worth of parts and sell it for 10x more..
