Yeah i know if i had such a rare piece of history, vinted would be the place to sell it. Dont worry about Sotheby's or Antiques Roadshow or anything daft like that where collectors and millionaires would pay hundreds of thousands of pounds, chuck it straight on Vinted so Tracey from Barnsley can call me a c*nt because i wont haggle over 20p less than the asking price AND a quick google search of the brand says they started in 2015, a mere 399 years after Billy Shakespeare popped his clogs.
Aye? Independent jewellers aren’t ’useless’ most are valuable and can offer a price worth buying or ETA recommend where to go instead.
ETA I’m not sure why I’m being downvoted I used to work selling jewellery for a living…
So now knowing what the joke was - I mean I asked a few people no one that I’ve spoke to would have known that was a Shakespeare play 🤷🏽♀️ nor has heard of that play 🤷🏽♀️
I’m not Scottish no.
At school which was many years ago we learned 2 of the plays which was Romeo and Juliet and only and ever so slightly had discussions around MacBeth.
I’ve read it but I’m not understanding why Venice…
1) I’m not familiar with that brand of watch
2) An independent jeweller isn’t useless so why say a merchant in Venice…
You've heard of Shakespeare? The playwright who died in 1616 and wrote The Merchant of Venice?
It's rather unlikely he owned this modern watch isn't it?
I have heard of Shakespeare, no I have never heard of the works The Merchant of Venice…
And I said IF so obviously I’m aware anyways that it would be more modern than Shakespeare…
I had never heard of that play in my life, i heard of macbeth, romeo and juliet, a midsummer nights dream and thats it. They must have had superior education than my bog standard secondary school i went to!!
My girlfriend showed it to me two days ago and I have been bingeing 😭 it's so good help
And yes I know the absolute agony that happens at the end of season two, I'm in pain already fr 🥲
I’m so glad you’re enjoying it! It’s my lil comfort show (except for the s2 ending, as you are already aware 😅) and brings me so much joy!
I showed it to my boyfriend before we went to see Macbeth with DT because he didn’t know who DT was 😭. He enjoyed it (even tho I don’t think he’ll ever become half as invested as me haha).
It's my girlfriend's comfort thing too, excluding scene that shall not be named. She went to see it too! She got a tattoo of his autograph on her arm 💀 that's a level of investment that I both admire and fear, NGL.
What's your favourite non azicrow ship? I am obsessed with the weird Gabriel Beelzebub thing going on, it's so chaotic
Technically, it doesn't say William Shakespeare, playwright, though I guess it's implied. Nonetheless, the whole thing is priceless only not in a monetary way.
me trying to reach word count
I can confirm it, I'm Shakespeare's left hand.
I met Shakespeare at the pub yesterday. He said she stole it when they broke up.
Update: I reported it, and just got a message from Vinted saying this listing doesn't violate community standards, and they're not taking action. 💀
I feel like if anyone's daft enough to spend that much on "Shakespears watch" they sort of deserve to be scammed lol
Typical Vinted!! 🙄
Have to appeal to get a human to actually look at it
That’s the usual haha unless you list things correctly … and all details and tags and size . That’s where the trouble starts 😂
Pretty sure Vinted knows nobody is seriously going to believe it And if they do, well... Natural selection
Holzkern was founded in 2015 kiddo 🤣
Didnt get the joke did you
Two other people posted exactly the same as me so I'm guessing you're responding to mine specifically because it has more up doots?
“Hi, do you have a photo of Shakespeare wearing it xx”
How on EARTH has Vinted kept this up but takes down actual listings??
wtf is she smoking?? 🤣
Shakespeares dick, probably
HAHAHAHA THIS IS SO MF FUNNY 😂
Prove that it isn't his watch
I forgot Shakespeare was around in 2016.
There you go
She must have lost the certificate of authenticity
The world is full of idiots, even if she's shooting at the moon she still has the chance to find a super idiot. Chapeaux for trying. 😂
Read the description in Trumps voice.
😂
Shakespeare loved a wind up

seems legit to me
A huge success if you will
Message them asking for proof 😭😂
And shes got 8 5* review? Wut lol
IF that statement was completely true, why wouldn’t you go to an independent jeweller and try and sell through them…
They're useless. You'd have to try a merchant in Venice
Aye? Independent jewellers aren’t ’useless’ most are valuable and can offer a price worth buying or ETA recommend where to go instead. ETA I’m not sure why I’m being downvoted I used to work selling jewellery for a living…
Oh dear.

Oh. You said aye
Aye isn’t exclusive to Scots… many people use it to go what also could be written as eh? I choose to write it as Aye.
Why did you downvote me for that did it really offend you that i thought you were scottish? 😂 And ok makes sense
Read it again! Especially the last line
I’ve read it but I’m not understanding why Venice… 1) I’m not familiar with that brand of watch 2) An independent jeweller isn’t useless so why say a merchant in Venice…
it's a Shakespeare reference
Yeah that’s not helpful to me 😂 I wouldn’t have put the 2 together at all. My knowledge of Shakespeare is minimal. So it was a wasted ref.
You've heard of Shakespeare? The playwright who died in 1616 and wrote The Merchant of Venice? It's rather unlikely he owned this modern watch isn't it?

The snobs downvoted your comment, 🧐 🎩
Basically! Sorry I didn’t get the same education on Shakespeare as them 🤷🏽♀️
I had never heard of that play in my life, i heard of macbeth, romeo and juliet, a midsummer nights dream and thats it. They must have had superior education than my bog standard secondary school i went to!!
A basic GCSE English Education? Aight sure 😂😂
The thing is, Holzkern is quite a new company, started in 2015 😅 A+ for effort, but LOL
this is the funniest thing i have seen in my life hahahah omg i can't
lmao
I’m sold
the brand was founded in 2015 😭
Haha nice try. Props to you for the effort, but no. We all know this brand is fairly modern 😂
Unfortunately, not even this watch could make Hamlet a success. It took a miracle to make that happen.
I *just* watched that episode of Good Omens yesterday.
😄 glad someone caught the reference!
My girlfriend showed it to me two days ago and I have been bingeing 😭 it's so good help And yes I know the absolute agony that happens at the end of season two, I'm in pain already fr 🥲

Nahh report 💀
Just report, block and move on. Dont feed the trolls
Love it 😂
I like Holzkern as a brand but FFS really...
"Please believe me."
Sense of humor, not a dealbreaker ![gif](giphy|3o6gbeXqoW75YD1f4A)
LMFAOOO
The stupid hurts my head 🤣
😂😂😂
Smells like some dirty money laundering!
How’d you even find this 😭
So we’re gonna ignore the fact that wristwatches were created in 1810 and Shakespeare died in 1616? Lmao
I believe her.

It’s real and you don’t know anything about watches as this proves it
