I have been approached by dozens of manufacturers and vendors in the course of the past year who have offered payment and discounts for ad space...all were kindly denied :) This is a discussion forum not a sales forum...matter of fact John I was thinking of asking you for some sort of compensation or discount to our members for all of the watches you list on our sales forum:D:D You make some very valid points. :D Just because something has always been done a certain way doesn't mean that we shouldn't consider doing things differently. Maybe things can be improved? :? My point was IF Steinhart did sell more watches after the sale came to the attention of 3T members, maybe it would be in their interests to consider offering us a discount. Why wouldn't Steinhart want to do what Marc, Enzo and Berg have done? What would be wrong with being more proactive in soliciting other great 3T members? I don't see how this would jeopardize the independent voice of the forum. :)

3T is not a bussiness nor ever intended to be one....it was started for like minded WIS to gather and discuss/share their enjoyment of watches and what makes them Tick watch2.gif 3T is self supported out of pocket and does not seek outside entities for funding .....My feelings are a forum can not be unbiased about brands if one receives funding from a said brand or vendor :) We are lucky to have active members like Marc,Berg and Enzo who offer nice discounts to our members as well as sneak peeks and allowing us to be involved in future designs and brands they may carry cool10.gifDiscounts are offered to all posting members of 3T by our linked vendorshand6.gif Ken,

Thanks. That is very cool. Not a good business model but still very cool. :) That might be something to consider in the future. 3T hosts a link in echange for a discount to 3T members?

Actually I wouldn't mind paying a membership fee for all the benefits and enjoyment that I receive from 3T. :) Or a fee for listing watches to be sold on the forum. Or a fee for watches that are sold. (There is a difference between listing watches and selling them) :) That might fund a new hot tub for the moderator. :) I know not to bring a knife to a gunfight so I'll back off . . . for now. :D

I like the way that is stated over the buttons too. "3T Friends" :)

Some folks like adds that is cool. I played that for a bit a few years ago became a pain. So don't do it anymore.

Now and then I will put up a button or banner for someone just for the sake of doing it. May do it again soon if I can get motivated to work on my sites some time soon. Same look for near 2 years now.

But Oscar you got a good thing going here keep up the good work. Goes for all involved in helping to from the Admins and Mods and so forth. ;)

And a way cool membership helps.
