半價競投Rolex網bid淘金夢碎!

橋吾怕舊,最緊要受

用戶萬元開戶食白果擬報警 -
涉事的網購公司聲稱母公司為美國上市公司 . 會員過萬,客人若以美金1,388元開戶,便可以低至半價網上競投勞力士(Rolex)手錶、iPhone及平板電腦等貨品。

....「廿秒內無他人出價即可投得貨品」,若介紹朋友入會更有獎金,據悉公司已累積向數百參加者收取了以千萬元計投資。但有會員投訴入會三個月以來,連一件心儀貨品都競投不到,懷疑有詐,多名受害人日前上門要求退款無果,正考慮報警求助。

計我話,這又一單找吾到當事人,找吾到負責人,有可能也找吾到公司註冊人,又一單騙案

有人那一方又拿了這班受騙人的錢,正在快快樂樂地拿現金去買金撈喇

光棍佬教仔,邊有禁大隻蛤蟆隨街跳?... 便宜莫貪。
光棍佬教女,千其吾好蝕底..."西米露" !

買撈都係找家商譽好的店舖買囉,勞力士邊到有得平呵,就算平都有個譜架,半價 ?
代理來貨都吾得呀!

勞力士霸的一點一劃,兩點,三點有何代表意義?


"肥殻,2 HALLMARK,波膠,兩點霸的, 大裝" What the hells are these terms? 

A Question from one of the reader Yan on 1 May. 一位香港師父問肥殼,2 HALLMARK, 波膠, 兩點霸的,大裝是甚麼意思,小弟繼一解答。

霸的上的點:

市面上較常見的勞力士把頭標誌有:短橫線、一個圓點、兩個圓點、及三個原點標誌,可讀出手錶材質及功能。

短橫線:最為常見,鋼錶或金鋼錶,及有雙重防水功能。
  一個圓點:手錶由鉑金製成;
  兩個圓點: 18K白金或黃金錶;
  三個原點(一樣大):40mm以上錶盤
      (多為運動款),三重防水,鋼錶或金鋼錶;

Voice for the Mainland Chinese...



I did see those rich people really toss their unduly request for more… there was furious guy on my left asked the Chief Purser to adjust the air con colder. She did but failed to meet his COOL requirement…He worn an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak stainless steel 44mm Chronometer.

The one on my right was a Gweilo Business man did the same to hang his legs up the partition in front of him, well, if he has Hong Kong Foot, definitely the stinky foot would spoil my appetite. He worn a Seiko 5 Auto stainless steel watch with a Silicone watch band…
 
Mainland Chinese has been labeled as rude, impolite, and
arrogant in recent years by many HK people.


To be fair to them, those are just the minority happened to be found in HK, remember 70% HK's visitors is from China.

Here we can see not only Chinese Tao Hu was reported having this bad habit, it is not uncommon to see Gweilo, Phlippino, HKer, Indian, American, Singaporean, whoever would likely behave this way. 

And I think that we should always bear in mind to be considerate and have certain etiquette no matter when, and where…

I am glad that we have the aircraft to be a non-smoking zone everywhere...

I am afraid one day we will be allowed to talk on mobilephone…then we will never be able to take a rest in the aircraft anymore!
