August 2020 Stats: It's Easy Being Green (With Just A Touch of Red) Edition

Wow!

[mention]TheJohnP[/mention] took a well deserved break for August, and other members of this community stepped up to the plate and knocked out some dingers!

@Stretch44 is the top poster for the month with 136. He really was a man on a mission, I had a hard time keeping up some days! Our very own [mention]watchpalooza[/mention] was right on his heels, it really was a good race!

Pretty much all the metrics that really matter saw big increases this month: Deals posted, total values, etc. The only places we saw slippage was with the number of members posting deals, and the percentage savings.

I think for September I'd like to see you lurkers step up and post a deal or three. Try it, you just might like it!

Ok, to the numbers!

(As always, if there is a particular brand, site or other pieces of data you'd like, let me know and I can provide it.)

Let's remember a few things first:
  • I based these calculations on new and refurbished watches only.
  • I do not include watch accessories or used watches.
  • I only included deals with links.
  • The retail price used was either the retail price listed on the selling website or found on the manufacturer's site.
  • Currency, if not in USD was converted to USD using Google's currency exchange calculator on as close to the date the deal was posted as possible.
  • "Largest" and "Smallest" deal is based solely on the percentage savings from listed retail. I do not make subjective determinations on the brand's perceived value. That is up to you, the reader.

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

Whoa! Can't believe I posted that many. While I posted a lot deals, my percentages could be better. Always room for improvement. I am just a Padawan learning from the master. I'm also going to keep posting deals, maybe not as many though.
