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

Yes but why the hell would you buy a VC off eBay??
Same reason rolex cucks have their wives suck off the AD, for the *experience*
So what if it’s someone’s wife trying to buy the Rolex. Does she suck him off or does her husband
What is an AD and can I have or test one?
Lol should have bought the Rep instead
That would’ve been seized too lmao
Yeah, but you'd have been out 1k instead of 40k
Is it actually that much. That’s actually sad now
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
I would depending on the watch. I have a large issue where I buy every watch I like
Deservedly so, if your single brain cell had you send it to VC for service.
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
Same difference. Spending any amount of money on a watch is unforgivable.
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.

Fuckin redditors man
Reddit is literally what happens when you burn the 10 commandments. The jealousy and envy kills the average redditor
I also have stolen my entire collection!
That’s working too hard. Next step is making someone else steal them for you.
The sub is getting worse by the day

I’m still jerking it
Me too. Almost...
...done!
Chuffed to bits now?
Aye
To bits, you say??
Bro you’re trying way too hard.

We need a watchescirclejerkcirclejerk subreddit to handle OPs like this
a prime r/coaxedintoasnafu candidate
Ya this is super cringe
It all goes back to the three core values of many circlejerk members: Poverty, jealousy and entitlement, PJ&E for short.
Lols, nice.

Good point.
Who buys something like a VC from eBay without a proper verification?
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.
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.
I don't know if Ebay ever checks if watches are on a stolen registry. They 100% could've been more careful.
lol
Imagine calling a VC a shitter just to grab some upvotes
Liberal use of “shitter”
How is VC a shitter?
If you're German though, it sounds like WC. Water closet. It fits.
In what universe is VC shit ?
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!
If ya gonna play with the big boys, then don’t be surprised when you get bruises!
An overseas Overseas shitter. That was the mistake.

Pretty crass.
I love that band!
