Two-fitty?

It's good but it's not quite right.

The most I could see myself paying for that would honestly be $50. Maybe $75. It isn’t the rare exotic treasure this guy seems to think it is, but it’s just saved by the fact that it’s a Croton and an interesting one at that. The Whammy does bring some value but not eight hundred bucks’ worth.

Okay. Here’s a prime example to me of why this guy is effing up.

Here’s a link to one of his other watches for sale.

Guess who?

While $45 is a little high for a watch like this, this is the kind of market value he should be targeting. To me, the value is pretty similar. Yet he wants $45 for the Woody watch and $800 for the Whammy.
