Sticker on it is $8,440 CND taxes in. Should I? What do you guys think? Of course assuming I can get them to discount a good amount.
There are used watches in like new condition out there for about half of that. Don't forget that this watch will be about 15 years old and probably retailed for not much more than a 3573 back then.
When you can get an excellent condition used one for $3K USD less, I can't imagine buying that one, unless you just hate money.
Used watches are your friend. They would need to discount that puppy by about $3,500canadian to get my attention. Let me introduce you to my axiom: It's going to be a used watch when I sell it or trade it. It may as well be a used watch when I buy it. I think you have unwittingly discovered why that watch is still in the AD's case.
I was thinking for a brand new one if I could get them to come down to $6,000CND taxes-in it’ll be worth it considering that these go for roughly $4800-$5600CND used before sales tax, duties, and shipping on Chrono24. Edit: Want to add I don’t buy watches with resale in mind and that I just prefer new over used. Thanks for the advice. I’ll definitely put in a bit more thought on this.
