The huge flash didn’t make any sense and they were constantly chasing down cash because they didn’t have any.Welcome to /r/Watches, a community for watch & horology discussion. I assumed they were broke from the beginning. I don’t know what your collection is worth but if it’s less than 200-300k and something they could sell quickly (Rolex, Ap, patek) that’s a clear indication they are in cash trouble. I was hoping they would succeed since it would be another avenue to get hard to get pieces, I guess we shall see. I was very disappointed to say the least. I really thought one million bucks was pocket change to these guys, especially when they are wearing some supper high dollar stuff while just chilling around the city. Business 1st, the flex can wait once you have a good foundation. I was thinking to my self why don’t Anthony just sell his “ personal stash” if its really his, to help his business grow. Or they can get a investor to purchase all or most of them at a discount. They said( Marco) that they don’t have the funds to purchase out right but would sell them one at a time. I inquired on how the process worked and sent them some pics of my collection. Hence why all the lifestyle steak dinner stuff.

Seemed like they wanted to use the watch business to grow their profile and hopefully land a TV show/marketing empire (ala Pawn Stars). But my impression was their (or maybe just Anthony's) ultimate goal was not the watch business. I guess we're all speculating at this point. Who knows, maybe this is all a poorly planned publicity stunt, but if you go back and watch the episodes from the beginning they didn't appear to take the actual business of owning a business ($17,000 steak dinner could have bought a decent sport Rolex) seriously enough and it just started piling on to what could be an unavoidable conclusion. As a building owner, I could only dream of watching prospective tenants show me their cards in such an overt (and hilarious) fashion. I felt bad for their realtor at the end when they kyboshed the dream. It was clear neither of them had much experience negotiating this kind of lease. Their lack of business acumen was highlighted in the episode where they were (foolishly) planning their new store buildout right there in the building.they were practically drooling about how it would look before the lease had even been negotiated. Anthony and Marco are clearly grumpier (stressed?) than previous episodes. Need to sell X right away to pay for Y and all that.
At the beginning it was steak dinners and Lambos for all.now it seems they can't buy much inventory with actual cash. Also, they can show trends in activities, purchases, moods, etc. I think this is a case (and a lesson for all those Youtube stars) where the weekly videos (planned and spur-of-the-moment) can look quite foolish in hindsight. And if Anthony is half as smart as he leads on the video will start with a phone call between him and Marco to meet somewhere to talk and it will be a new building. If i were to guess they are just winging it day by day, most likely saw the suspense in early videos if they were a day late, so now they did a super late upload last week, left it with a cliff hanger, most likely will post up a video saying how healthy the business is, they suspended social media to build suspense, they know what they are doing, all the members in the VIP group are very happy, as a matter of fact we are going to be giving away a watch in that group this Friday, will offer a refund to anyone in the group who asks.
Everyone saying they are taking their stuff down because of legal reason around the capital raise, the one thing not deleted is the youtube videos with all the "evidence". To start with the investment/raise, seems all assume they sold all the spots, currently the group has 161 members, assuming several are staff they have only raised around $300,000. A few things to poke a few holes into some theories. I am interested to see what all this amounts to.
