Maybe? NO! For sure... POKER!?
In Response To: Re: Maybe? NO! For sure... ()

: Yes, you feel all that but then you have to give the dealer the
: impression you're not all that bothered and that you're doing
: them a favour by taking it off their hands! A difficult game of
: poker, buying the watch you love :)

Well Mark... lets play it!

Of course you'll have to play the game with the vendor ( but they are professionals, not me! ) as in every business. He'll try to seduce you making you understand that he knows what he has... the point is, how can you price a dream ? Or how can you price a sun set ? To a Mozart Symphony during a full moon night ? etc... etc... at the end, your heart may take the lead...

It can bee great fun and part of the story with your future loved watch... who doesn't like hunting a watch? I LOVE IT! Go for it! Take the challenge what so ever and if it does go the "wrong" way, you'll at least learn from it... then positive in any case!

This is the "PEPS" of life or also the "SPICY" side you may add to it... Shake it and LIVE IT with less fears and prejudices!

ONE HAS TO HAVE FUN!! :))
