Hi Highflyer,

I'll try to get a second one from JohanChan if you want. I can't find your phone number. Could you give me a call?

watthanothai · 06-06-2002, 10:46 PM

I can get them if you want.

wooji · 06-07-2002, 12:26 PM

Hi Watt,

Could you get the Qantas F1 and the JAL World Cup for me Once they are out?

suichai · 06-09-2002, 12:43 PM

next week is coming; ana anoopy is coming!
but which date????

mini_airport · 06-09-2002, 06:56 PM

Hey Watt, why don't you use the PM feature? Or else you'll be getting tons of favors from people that you'll be a ACHK#2!

Cheers.

He means the private messenger feature on the forums to communicate with people.

mini_airport · 06-09-2002, 11:52 PM

As Waffle pointed out already, "PM" is Private Messaging. Click on the Icon with the 2 people that says "PM". Its between "Profile" and "Email". By using this feature you get to send a message to another Wings900 member privately. I was just recommending this because you'll be getting a lot of "Watt, can you get the next BB for me" and you'll be like a ACHK #2 with various BB orders from around the world!

Anyway, Emailing is better than PM-ing since there's a word limit of 1000 with Wings900's PM feature. So never mind what I said! :p

he is ACHK#2? i don'tunderstand.
doyou mean he is holding a lot of BB? and wanna make some profit?

watthanothai · 06-10-2002, 02:08 AM

Hold it !!

I think we are a little confused. I can buy these models the same way any of you can, I'm just saying that if you wanted them I can get them. NO I DO NOT HAVE STOCK OF THEM.

Nothing more Nothing less. The only problem is the payment issue, that can be a major pain !!.

As for the PM, yes I see. Should have looked before I asked !

mini_airport · 06-10-2002, 05:48 AM

Wow there, ok, I think I'm causing this confusion. Sorry.

Let me explain. ACHK is BB's "only" retailer, right? I was jokingly calling Watt, ACHK#2 because for whatever reason people are asking him for the BBs. I was implying Watt sortof as a "BB retailer #2" just because of people asking him to buy BBs, and Watt being a nice person, saying "ok". Why aren't they buying it from ACHK directly? I don't know.

What I said has nothing to do with profit-making nor with stocking up on BBs!

So, Watt sorry for all the confusion.

It was just a joke with some sarcasm toward BB, which is about how BB's only distribution network stems only from ACHK and how that's not fair on the price for non-HK collectors.

Cheers.

suichai · 06-10-2002, 06:46 AM

oh i see, isee.
sorry, watt~~

is BB really so expensive?
IF!!! if you can reach some sellers which is absolutely helpful, they can help you to buy BB, and then, they can send it to you together in order to save the shipping cost.

Just like me, i am helping someone in Canada to buy BB, and i charge them 15hkd more on each model. i think watt is doing sth like me.

waffle · 06-10-2002, 11:02 AM

ACHK is NOT BB's only retailer. They get quite a few of the released models but not all of them. I forget the numbers but someone posted them before in how much they got to sell. Whether that number is right or not I don't know.

First off, I'm glad I got this cleared up, Suichai.

BigBird's been selling around here for $35US ($273HK) for the JAL O/C to $55US ($429HK) for the JDEs. And its smart that people around here (or Canada, or even elsewhere) are doing deals through fellow collectors like you guys, cause it'll definitely save one's money.

And Waffle: what is this about ACHK not being the only retailer for BB? I thought ACHK was the sole retailer and distributor for BB. Maybe they have a limit to how much they can sell locally as a retailer and how much they can sell world-wide as a distributor. Is that what you mean?

Cheers.
