I'll post where I like! You suggesting censorship? Bloody hell, some of you would want to get a grip.
Hi RC71

Welcome to the forum .

No one said anything about censorship . Sometime one get too caught up in the passion and the hobby . So before I hit the “reply / post “ button I always say to myself ( I am slightly crazy talking to myself all the time ) about “ am I adding value to the thread , topic etc” …

that is all ….

Good Hunting

🙄

Did I say “censorship” or that you need to have your comments deleted, implying censorship needs to take place? No. I said you are not adding any value to this thread and questioned why you’re even participating in it.

Hi @Sendan

Welcome to the forum . Please take a breath , it is almost as if you are implying some underhanded intent on Ada and Mr OMalley. That is just marketing and product placement... nothing manufactured.

As I was told one screwup wipes out a entire year of atta boys .

Let see what happens next...

Be safe

Thank you, been here for a while actually.

Appreciate the positive connotation, but these YTubers are a bunch of grifters and these latest "transactions" for product and business marketing have proven it. The community needs to stand together and warn others from further trusting and mailing off their valuable assets to these individuals based on some delusional fantasy that it'll hype their products. Anything short is a disservice here, especially with all the clout this thread itself has garnered.

I would suggest the "value" is an attempt to ask for objectivity, to listen to all sides in an argument. You seem to be adopting the position of, if you're not piling in on one party in this, you are providing no "value" and the implied "don't bother posting".
in all fairness you come across as Oisin's No1 fanboy.

What side do you still need to hear? Have you read the entirety of this thread and listened to the two hour long self pity drivel session hosted by Oisin? I have.

I challenge you to read all of my contributions to this thread and pin me to any “piling on.” What I have added is evidence of Oisin’s lies, advocated not to attack Oisin via cyber attacks and other illegal avenues, and suggested how the OP can go about collecting his (hopeful) delivery in a way that protects the OP.

You seem to have your mind made up though. So again I 🙄

I totally agree with this. I cannot fathom how anyone could willingly lost their previous watch to some YouTuber. I don't get it, the risks are clearly huge.

You should start a thread about this topic.

This is not that thread.

Hi
Your also new to posting and I welcome your comments as well .

You seems to have a binary view of things …
I have the attitude there are good YouTubers and not so good ones … just like in every other industry . As my economics professor always said “ there is always someone that make you look better !”

I am a long time collector and I have been taken “ for a ride” ….. it happens you can mitigate it to a point and sometimes you can’t .

If you want to talk about it . I run a clubhouse room on Sundays “ Vintage Watch Chat” 4 pm east coast time .

Saying absolutes is something I typically never do like “ all ytubers are bad “ or “ only
Good dealer is a AD” .

if everyone cares about this topic last thing you want to turn this into a tit for tat exchange.

I have spent a lot of time reading and watching the many streams .
Be safe and Good hunting

Well it can't have been easy growing up there?
Why would you think that, why would it be different to growing up anywhere else in Dublin ?

The only other thing this thread needs at this point is an unboxing of a happy OP getting his watch back. Anything else is unnecessary.

I would welcome a temporary lock until then...
