It's not just an allegation. I've been active on watch forums for years and know that many sellers refuse to ship watches to Italy because of the...

The only theme collection I have is British Empire — coins from each colony (dominion, protectorate, whatever) covering each monarch from Victoria...
I don't think you understood my comment, or perhaps I wasn't clear. You said "hi-res images are ridiculously expensive to print." And, "It'd...
So . . . Skynet?
