Well, somebody at ToMo is apparently reading this forum. They took down the Eterna (either that or they sold 10 in an hour ). At $ 1,600 a piece it was the best price available currently, although IMHO still overpriced.
Likely somebody went in and bought as many as they could to resell.....ruining everybody's fun. Seen it happen repeatedly lately whenever there are really good deals....I wish they would put limits on all these "deals" to prevent wholesaling resellers/flippers from ruining the opportunity for others, but...the retailers just want to liquidate ASAP, so whatcha gonna do? Which kind of makes these deal forums counter-productive = by the time you post a good deal, the deals are gone....mini rant over

Automatic based on ETA2824? Not sure if I've seen this before - not sure on reliability etc but these seem to be over $700 usually?
Now I'm off to buy my kids some way overpriced Lego on the blackmarket from some toy scalpers...

Possibly, but more likely that ToMo belatedly realized that the 20% off price did not leave them enough to cover the cost to Gemnation (where I believe these Eternas came from) and leave some margin.

Unlikely as these sold at Ashford a year ago for less than a thousand, not too many flippers are going to jump on a 20% off deal in the first place, try 40 to 50 minimum (off of the going rate not msrp) to get you through the door, (selling is expensive), plus ToM has had a glitch for a long time now that if you search, for instance 'Alpina' or 'Eterna', it shows you old listings at first that are not active at all anymore, and until you hit the 'Add To Cart' button, then it refreshes and gives you an out of stock message

Far and wide I will find 'em and I ride 'em
Bricks and mortar get my licks just for kicks
AD or authorized I don't analyze
Retail, wholesale never fail
Online or offline, I find I don't redefine
Too big to fail or yard sale they all hale
Run or hide just for fun deals I find
To make up for my joke, here is a gift for your Mothers or yourself if you like a smaller watch. Red dial Seiko **** time in 34mm on special for $450aud, free shipping across Australia and 3 year warranty. Looks like this one is limited and appearance is great so may be worth a pick up on price speculation alone. Not sure if they ship outside of down under. Open heart on leather is $25 less! https://starjewellers.com.au/products/s ... KrEALw_wcB
