In this world of high prices, inflation, recession, stag-flation...or whatever the heck else is going on...
,,,Rolex goes and raises their prices.....again..
So I'm protesting with this one for a few days...until my blood pressure goes down..

Just reflecting on the many! Rolex price increase posts across the forums, but if i'm honest funds allowing if it was the watch i wanted I'd pay it, "The Value Of Anything Is How It Makes You Feel" and that is an element i would find it impossible to quantify. pissed i could of got it cheaper the week before maybe, but not cheated

I'm in this camp too. I feel that to increase prices by 15% or more in an economy that is already seeing inflation spikes, does nothing but help fuel that inflation.
But mostly, I'm on one of those stupid Daytona lists, and I know now that if they call this week or next, I will feel like they just held one a bit to gouge me..... So, I'll gripe and complain......I'll pay......but I will still gripe and complain...

I'm all price hiked out, as a matter of fact, I'm a little Rolexed out too. So, to make myself feel a little better, I just got a great deal on another 2254.50, from David (DocD)'s AD. I'll be ordering it latter on tonight or tomorrow. Yes, I know I had one and sold it........twice But, I hear they're being discontinued, so this one's a keeper

Now as long as you don't start Skyping everyone and get desires for a four legged wooly beast, you should be OK.  _________________ I'd feel lost without my GPS |
