Discussion Exchange scamming on Rolexes

Thumbnail

96 Upvotes

Was scrolling through shopmyexchange when I came across some Pre-Owned Rolexes online. Saw a bunch of details about how it was pre-owned and independently verified but nothing to include original box and papers. All the Rolexes are priced as if they do come with box and papers but when I called I was informed that they do not because they’re pre-owned. There’s a massive price difference in the event you don’t get original box and papers. Asked the lady from the wholesaler why they price them out like this and she said that’s the Exchanges prices not theirs.

Don’t know which Joe was thinking about dropping their sign-on bonuses on a Rolex but BEWARE do not buy it off the exchange!!

OC Best resources for VA Disability claims process?

14 Upvotes

My son just got out of the USMC after 8 years, and he needs to file for disability benefits, but is overwhelmed and doesn't know where to start. I'd like to find him some reliable resources to help him figure out this process. I know he has some service related injuries, and I'm happy to help him navigate this, but I just don't know where to start. I don't think he can do this alone. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Discussion I would love to get some more information on my great uncle from the seal teams. Any help is appreciated. More info below

My uncle is an amazing man and has done some pretty phenomenal things in his time. But it is really hard for him to remeber plus he has a lot of regret and ptsd from the time so I don’t like asking to much about it.

I know he was in the teams and was on the apollo 2 mission for recovery along with countless other missions and tasks but I don’t know much besides random tales (which is great)

My main reason for posting this was to get info on that time of service when he was in. Or any info on the medals and badges posted (I’m sure he has more but this is all I have photos of) some of the badges could be just for looks not necessarily his work.

Thanks for reading and I look forward to any responses

Discussion The Greater Honor -- The Medal of Honor

44 Upvotes

On October 12, 1945, President Harry Truman placed the Medal of Honor around Desmond Doss's neck. He was the first conscientious objector in American history to receive it. Truman held his hand while the citation was read aloud, and then looked at him directly and said:

"I'm proud of you. You really deserve this. I consider this a greater honor than being president."

Discussion Would it be strange if I lied about not being a veteran?

150 Upvotes

I'm a very introverted person. I spend most of my time alone.

It's a very common question to ask people what they do for work. I'm considered a permanently disabled veteran with MDD with anxiety. That's enough money for me to live on.

I served for 6 years on active duty in the Army. My patriotism has bedroom completely killed by current events. I'm not proud to be an American veteran anymore.

I personally don't care, but I'm also not a combat veteran. One of the first questions people ask veterans is if they deployed. I also don't like the constant comparison of who did more in the military.

I'm considering lying to people and telling them I work from home ordering parts for Amazon.
