Yes, and I've also bought at least two from stefs (well, one one was his, sold to his mate, and then on to me, but still...).blowfish89 wrote:I've sold 5 watches to gaf1958 in the last yearmissF wrote:funny that stefs has sold you three of his watches - does that make him your dealer now? a kind of personal AD?

Re: Compulsive Watch Buyer's Syndrome Support Group
3 actually Gary!
On the whole non stop buying big collection front....I have to admit at one point I was upto 43 but now you can see I have heavily reduced to a more manageable number of what I think are nice uns that all get worn. I think its a cycle many of us go through.

What can I say, the forum is a good place to buy a watch or three. Or five...

All sounds so familiar. I thought my collecting habits had plateaued, but another snuck in this week.

No purchases recently, ideally I need to downsize, rather than keep adding to it!!

Re: Compulsive Watch Buyer's Syndrome Support Group
Judging by the "high points" of 30 to 40 watches quoted by others I'm not trying hard enough at (currently) about half that. I must have this under control and I feel sure I could give up any time I want ... I've thought about flipping something but dang it I can find a reason to keep every one.

Re: Compulsive Watch Buyer's Syndrome Support Group
Nothing wrong with that, you undoubtedly had a reason to buy each one in the first place, if nothing has changed, there's possibly no reason to sell them. I tend to work along those lines until such time as I need funds for a significant purchase and then I decide which ones to cull.LordFlashheart wrote:I've thought about flipping something but dang it I can find a reason to keep every one.

Must stop going on cruises! Expensive watch shops on board and too much time to look at them. Argh! Longines, Omega, Tag Heuer plus Tudor whenever we stop at a port. Yes must stop going on cruises!!
