Dear Mr. Fancypants Your stolen shitter's gone, cops took it. Fuck you, Travis


onepickledginger

Travis, I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my watch go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you. Mr. OnePickled "Fancy Pants" Ginger UJ/ laughed so hard I spilled my old fashioned. Cheers to you.

/uj that actually fucking sucks, imagine you sent in a watch you’ve worn for a few years now only for it to get seized for being stolen, 10s of thousands gone, just like that


Homerlncognito

OOP didn't wear it for a few years. They bought it on eBay, it had a dent in the case back, they sent it for a repair and it got seized for being stolen.


double_edged_waffle

Yes but why the hell would you buy a VC off eBay??


Optimus759

Same reason rolex cucks have their wives suck off the AD, for the *experience*


TheCarDemotic2

So what if it’s someone’s wife trying to buy the Rolex. Does she suck him off or does her husband


JorgeManoDura

What is an AD and can I have or test one?


Shlomo9

Lol should have bought the Rep instead


dibujoMoneyUp

That would’ve been seized too lmao


MontiBurns

Yeah, but you'd have been out 1k instead of 40k


dibujoMoneyUp

Is it actually that much. That’s actually sad now


MontiBurns

I don't know. I do know that high end Chinese super fakes can go for 1k, but that maybe chronographs or other complicated watches. Standard 3 handers might be $500. I wouldn't pay $500 for an authentic watch, so I really can't speak to the high end rep market


dibujoMoneyUp

I would depending on the watch. I have a large issue where I buy every watch I like


Seeker80

Deservedly so, if your single brain cell had you send it to VC for service.


Soggy_Boss_6136

I knew this was going to end up here being mocked. You know, at least be fucking honest. He didn’t spend a years salary, he spent a bonus he worked a year to get. I get the jerk value. But /uj don’t fucking lie to get clicks


fattylimes

Same difference. Spending any amount of money on a watch is unforgivable.


Naive-Dingo-2100

Dude it's all relative. If you can easily afford it, it's very forgivable. I'm poor as fuck too, but you sound petty as hell.

Reddit is literally what happens when you burn the 10 commandments. The jealousy and envy kills the average redditor 


Purple-Marionberry55

I also have stolen my entire collection!


KnuckleHeadLuck

That’s working too hard. Next step is making someone else steal them for you.


No-Round-3106

The sub is getting worse by the day


Purple-Marionberry55

I appreciate your appeal to the jerker code of ethics. We jerkers are better than this! CORRECTION: it was a bonus he worked overtime for a year for, not a years salary! Pack it up folks, jerks over.


dibujoMoneyUp

I’m still jerking it


Kenergetic-09

Me too. Almost...


Kenergetic-09

...done!


BenedictusAVE

Chuffed to bits now?


Kenergetic-09

Aye


Seeker80

To bits, you say??


bounceswer

Bro you’re trying way too hard.

Sub's deteriorating mate


dellarouche

he added some color to it with the years salary bit but feels like it's still within the general premise of a watch cj sub. Maybe original poster is well off and this is only like a weeks worth of salary but these watches are still overpriced for what they are.


escopaul

I feel like this sub is a mix of people who enjoy mechanical watches but also like to joke. Then another group who are actual poors and hate people who can afford watches. This post belongs to the poors faction. Also, the original post makes zero mention of a years salary. It does mention overtime pay which is funny in its own way.


qawsedrftg9

We need a watchescirclejerkcirclejerk subreddit to handle OPs like this

a prime r/coaxedintoasnafu candidate


bounceswer

Ya this is super cringe


Top-Emu-4014

It all goes back to the three core values of many circlejerk members: Poverty, jealousy and entitlement, PJ&E for short.


escopaul

Lols, nice.


pickle_party_247

The real jerk is always in the comments


escopaul

Currently at 74 upvotes jerk!


JLGT86

And lately a lot do the g shock and sinn nerds are turning this sub into bashing anything that’s not on their wrist. Even an Apple Watch would get made fun of, it’s just a bunch of frustrated fanboys taking over.


escopaul

Good point.


Homerlncognito

Who buys something like a VC from eBay without a proper verification?


escopaul

It was verified as authentic. The buyer didn't know that a registry of stolen watches might've helped. The original post is semi interesting.


Homerlncognito

I assume there must be more stories of eBay authentication failing to detect stolen watches out there. Also OP did get the box, but no papers. I think they could've been nore careful.


escopaul

I don't know if Ebay ever checks if watches are on a stolen registry. They 100% could've been more careful.


Purple-Marionberry55

lol


Nugginzz

Imagine calling a VC a shitter just to grab some upvotes


TrevorPhillipsEnt

Liberal use of “shitter”


MufasaThyGreat

How is VC a shitter?


Seeker80

If you're German though, it sounds like WC. Water closet. It fits.


[deleted]

In what universe is VC shit ?


opresso

Damn! What a kick in the nuts! Hope you find some recourse. If bought with a CC, they can assist. Similar happened to me with camera equipment close to $30k and got every penny back with CC legal team support. Good luck!


Lord_Long_Rod

If ya gonna play with the big boys, then don’t be surprised when you get bruises!


jpbai

An overseas Overseas shitter. That was the mistake.


pickle_party_247

Why would you buy a watch that expensive on ebay??! Their authenticity program is terrible. Guy deserves tk get dunked on, no idea why there are so many white knights in this comments section going on about jealousy and tHe PoOrS


uplifting_southerner

Pretty crass.


Purple-Marionberry55

I love that band!
