pride gets expensive...this is a perfect case for the ODF (own damn fault) defense.

That’s a damn good salesman!

this is a perfect case for the ODF (own damn fault) defense.

I think the plaintiff has a good case here. In high-end jewelry and watch stores, you have to buy a certain amount of high-margin junk jewelry before they'll let you have access to the good and rare stuff. That's standard practice in the industry. In this case, the jeweler probably underestimated the rarity of the Patek Phillipe Nautilus watch that the customer wanted and he just couldn't supply it.

I bet they settle out of court.
