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 what I am suggesting would jeopardize the independent voice of the forum. :) I understand that 3T is not a "business." However, that shouldn't discourage 3T from looking for ways to get members a better deal? I'm not attacking 3T.

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?
