...The Dark Side of Filippo Loreti: The Untold Truth Behind Making MILLIONS from Chinese Watches

The Dark Side of Filippo Loreti: The Untold Truth Behind Making MILLIONS from suckers on the internet.

To quote the cleaning lady in one of my old offices who looked at the desk of a co-worker who saved the tin foil from his daily sandwiches and made a ball out of it: "He yunky man."

Redefining luxury for less than $200?. As an avowed cheapskate, I really wish this were true. Filippo joins a list of hundreds who make the claim. Can anyone here name one company that has actually pulled this off?

Depends how you define luxury, but it's generally incompatible with affordable. If you define luxury as something like unnecessary extravagance, Casio probably gets closest with Ti and sapphire for $200. But I don't think anybody is going to call a $200 Casio luxurious.
