Blaming Borat for Kazakhstan's reputation is like blaming The Interview for North Korea's reputation. The country's 28-year president Nursultan Nazarbayev may have been marginally less vicious than Uzbekistan's Karimov and marginally less fruitcake than Turkmenistan's Niyazov, but he was still an utter asshole. and that's before you even start on his epically ghastly and titanically rapacious crotch fruit and their friends.

I feel sorry for the Kazakhs, but not because of Borat.

We have had bad eggs from South America, Ukraine, Africa and others....Wonderful that you give a heads-up, let us know of patterns of evil.
Hat's off to you, Ash, you must have clones to contribute as you do.

The "science", maybe, but not art.
Horology, now there is an art!
My son is a Marine Officer…recommended reading in OCS was “The Art of War” by Sun Tzu?..I think that’s what he was referring to

This is an example of these listings btw, 1 feedback seller, heaps of bids on a bond LE, it’ll still go under market value and the buyer will think they got a good deal unfortunately

Thanks for the heads-up.

I'd thought that selling something for over 1k on eBay required various other successful sales as your feedback ramped up to an acceptable level of risk. Didn't realize you could appear from nowhere as a seller and move into high-value items so quickly.

Did ebay not introduce a verification process for high end watches? Thought they had one and you needed to use it when selling. Probably nothing like an actual watch dealer looking at the watch but better than nothing. I'd never buy or sell a watch of that sort of value, on ebay or Facebook either.
