What? Brand will determine ultimate bottom line.

New or used?
Cash or charge?

There is no possible way to even give a range on this question without more information.

new. retail jewelry store.

not concerned with whether cash or charge.

do you really need to know the brand?

It's probably relevant given that many brands have resale price maintenance agreements that will result in the store's termination as a brand outlet if they discount the price beyond a certain amount.

That I remember?

I wasn't referring to the roadie trotting out another one when Mr. Big drills through his guitar string.

Why are you (or your friend, I wasn't really paying attention as to who wanted the watch, and I'm certainly not going back to reread the post at this point) buying the watch from a retail jewelry store? In answer to your question, then, with this starting point, expect a 25-35% mark-down from sticker and expect that to still be about 300% of "value".

Or find an internet friend with back-alley TCOTU wholesale watch sales connections and get a hook-up. Or go to the website that was posted last year right before my big watch purchase and expect to pay 10% below whatever you would end up paying in the jewelry retail store (please say it isn't in a mall too).

So many options!

I can go from the Harvard Law Review to Us Weekly very quickly.”

[Spicolli] I know that dude. [/Spicolli] Real quiet, but a good dude.

This sounds quite amusing. If I am still alive and participating on this board in 2007 (god help me), I'd like to watch this in Boston with the support of my friend, alcohol.

If my friends, gwnc and alcohol, are there, I'm there too. It isn't in, like, the middle of winter or something stupid, right?

(I'd go back and read the post to find out when it is, but that would be cheating or something.)

I thought that it was Sebby who don't give a damn about any trumpet-playing band (it ain't what he calls rock and roll).

No trumpets. Funky guitars, though:

Plus, the front man is not the lead singer/the lead singer is not the front man. Pretty rare. But Robin Zander does have that dreamy hair.

Relax. I am more New Testament (turning water into wine, healing the sick, feeding the multitudes, etc.) than Old Testament (plagues, smitings of first-borns, turning people into pillars of salt, etc.).

Again, RT fucked up the table, so "composer" got smushed between "song" and "running time."

THAT is a GREAT question. Penske?
