Reply With Quote“…but wears larger” - It looks like it shrank in the wash.
I've decided that I have too many watches: I'm in so much debt that I have 7' tall bald men angrily beating on my front door day and night.
“…but wears larger” - It looks like it shrank in the wash.
GLWS - Good Luck With Sale, bu99er I was going to put mine up for sale but for more money and you have undercut me.
Mine Says Hi! - I know you have yours up for sale but if I put a picture of mine up on the thread I hope that a prospective buyer contacts me rather than you as it will save me the bother of writing an advert.
It's time to reduce my collection: The 7' tall bald men have got through my front door.
I'm not bonding with it = The wife/husband/significant other went mental when they saw that I bought another watch
Quick sale needed: The fine is due by Thursday.
Thread of the year so far!

This one has to go: Or I get evicted.
Unworn/BNWT: I bought it cheap and am trying to flog it at a profit
Some crackers here.
WTB: Can you believe it, they actually gave me another credit card?!
Worn for less than an hour around the house - could be fine, could be while masturbating.

You'd get away with levying a premium C.
WTB Rolex Submariner: She's left me and taken the kids, so I'm going to bang this card up to the limit and buy something I can sell abroad before the authorities catch up with me.
"I'll definitely take it" Not necessarily to be relied on, so don't put the watch on hold unless
1) The interested member is known & trusted by you
2) You received some money, even if it's just a (meaningful) deposit

“Redux” - I don’t know what redux means, nor how to use a dictionary. The first four letters are common to “reduction”, so I’m sure it’s fine.

Breitling Cosmonaute 809 - What's not to like?
F2F preferred - you won't catch me with an 'item not received' scam
Check my feedback on Heroes and Villains - I have multiple sock puppet accounts
Last chance before putting on Ebay - there must be some mug punters there!

“Up for grabs”
Validates the price I’m asking and makes people think that I’m doing them a favour - even listing it.
Lovely piece, GLWTS! - FFS, he's still trying to shift that PoS I offloaded.
Testing the water - ludicrously overpriced

F2F - looking for a meet up in motorway service station car park
To be fair - a lot are transacted in service area coffee shops for purely logistical reasons
"Patina" = looks older than it is
"Batman" / "Pepsi" / "Hulk" = it's objectively wildly overpriced but we give it a cute name despite it costing more than your first flat or a very good car
"Pushers operate smoothly" = they work
"Bezel has positive click" = it's stiff
"Lume still glows / has some life left in it" = if it's tritium it doesn't; if it's radium you might want to pick a hospice now
"Rare transitional model" = makes no difference and is no interest to anyone *or* neither one thing nor the other, made during a change in the shift at the factory
"Omega NATO strap" = Ł100 for a strip of nylon made in China for pennies
Lol

Forum price is Łxxxx, these go for up to Łyyyy elsewhere = I have scoured the internet and found one, massively optimistic, massively over-market, example that has been lingering on Ebay for two years at Łyyyy.
Or on Chrono24 (“Chronic 2.4 times the price you’d pay elsewhere”)
Can’t see a mark on it - I’m myopic and also squinting by candlelight.
The opportunity to buy - I bought it pissed so someone please take it and put me out of my misery.
What it owes me - I don’t understand that most thing’s probably reduce in price a bit as they are worn / passed from owner to owner.
Catch and Release: Yet again I bought a microbrand watch that turned out to be dodgy quality.
Catch and Release:
I`ve taken a watch in trade against something I struggled to sell, I`m not taking responsibility for its condition but I`d now like someone else to buy it.
YOU bought it, YOU own it, YOU are wholly responsible for the condition of the watch and cannot blame the previous owner if there are problems when you sell it on. We're not playing pass the parcel!
This thread had me laughing so hard the other day, I actually got a migraine!
This is my absolute favourite, priceless!...
"Here we have" - I think I am Fiona Bruce
"Let's say ŁXX" - I know its true worth but think you are a mug
"Just want back what it owes me" - What I (over)paid plus 20%
"...Rolex..." - Sh*t I need out of this fast, the sky is falling and I used it as collateral against my Tesla, also now falling in value like a stone.
'Rare'. Yes, there's a good reason for that, nobody wants it.
Interest check - early-onset buyer's remorse
Catch and Release - buyer's remorse
Not bonding - buyer's remorse
One in one out - buyer's remorse
New incoming forces sale - double buyer's remorse
Worn once - I have a hangover and buyer's remorse
Quick sale - ring-twitchingly-bad buyer's remorse
I can't seem to upload pictures: I'm too lazy to learn how to do something 98% of the forum membership seem to have no problem doing.
This. This. This.
No pics = no interest from me.
Also tend to think - the forum is plastered with how-tos, there's loads of options, all simple - so if someone's too lazy to sort that out, what else are they holding back on...? Servicing? Completeness? Mishaps? Origin? Always nagging doubts... Just no.
Only selling because ive seen something I want on SC - I havent, but I might get shot of this lump faster if I pretend that buyers are pressed for time.
LOL!!
I’m always waiting for someone to get caught out by putting up two watches claiming once A is sold B will be withdrawn to put fear of loss on both posts and then end up selling both.
Precisely.
first time ive heard about this....interesting
I did exactly this yesterday!
genuinely chuckled, thanks!
"More details on website" - I'm too lazy/thick to include a link.
"See here for more info" - Because I'm too lazy to cut-and-paste the relevant bit.
[No info whatsoever] - "Mommy!!! MOM! Chicken tendies!!! NOW!!! Don't make your Big Boy have to stand-up!!!"
They know how to do it. They avoid doing so because the thing they’re selling has visible problems and they’re hoping to find one gullible buyer without the hive mind pointing out the problem.
Every. Single. Time.
This could be a thread on its own. I’m sure we have had a Gatling gun and a Time Machine and no end of items that only the tz membership could possess.
