As you may have noticed, we we're offline this morning. This was caused by the "Thanks" plug-in going rogue and using up way too many server resources. This triggered an automatic suspension by our hosting provider as they thought it was a malicious attack. The "Thanks" plug-in has been disabled, hopefully temporarily so I can determine if that was indeed the cause, and take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.

I apologize for the disruption and for any confusion that may have caused.

My STO Samurai SRPC93 showed up today. It was shipped from a company called electronic express (https://www.electronicexpress.com/)

The warranty card is not stamped but everything looks good. The chapter ring looks bang on from what I can tell, all the plastic still on the bracelet and the back of the case. Doesn't look to be used or a display model. I think I got lucky. Not sure if my small wrist can handle the samurai so I'm not sure if I'll be keeping it. ImageImageImageImage

Excellent! My 6-1/2" wrist handles the Samurai well. I think the Samurai has a good L2L for smaller wrists -- just measured mine at 48mm.

$168 tax free, delivered...probably one of the better deals in 2020 (excluding the TJ Maxx Victorinox Airboss and Alpnach bargains, of course!). Bezel and chapter ring alignments are just ever so slightly off (of course!), but so far this is proving to be my most accurate 4R35/4R36 movement @ +4 seconds/day out-of-the-box! I submitted in an offer for another at the same price, but somehow I'm not too optimistic that lightening is gonna strike twice, lol!

Another Greentoe Seiko Samurai STO success story! I'd say it's a stunner, especially at $168. I guess that makes it a stunning success story? Thanks, yinzburgher & BostonCharlie for helping make it happen!

It's been awhile, but I just noticed that Google might be giving away Greentoe's prices in their web search results. In the past I would search Google Shopping where I might find the Greentoe listing I wanted. Now using straight web search reliably shows a price next to the listing. The Google Shopping results are still different because following the link gives you the low "Greentoe Now" price, where the web result link lands you on their standard page where they want you to make an offer.
