Issues with cheaper items

I use vinted to sell watches. Nornally around the £30-£50 mark. Sometimes il build up quite a few cheaper watches that I put a new battery in and put up for sale around £3 just to get rid of them. Iv found the more expensive watches go smoothly, whereas these cheaper ones I have issues with. They will pick the smallest of issues etc. Like some of these watches are 39+yrs old and I swear they must hold them under a light to search for the smallest scratch they can find then report a problem to vinted. It's got the point where il probably just bin any watches that are under £15 due to the hassle they cause me

Rare 1980s seiko

Picked this up a while back for not a lot of money as it wasn't working. Gave the battery terminal a scrape and clean, new battery and it came to life. Turns out its a rare model and as far as I can see there's only another one for sale and that's in America for £200. Mine is in better condition with its original strap. Iv always intended on keeping this watch but since showing it to a few watch buddies iv had some pretty high offers, some over £200. I don't need the money but the temptation to turn over a big profit is tempting me. What would you guys in this group do?

1980 seiko

Picked this up for cheap as it needed a strap and wasn't working. Luckily came to life with a new battery.

Crazy sleep positions

Do all poodles sleep like this? Some of the positions teddy sleeps in can't be comfortable

C4 VTR+

Here's my 08 car. Bought it in 2018 for just £975 and what a car it's been. Iv been all over the country in it and love the cruise control, speed limiter functions. The only downside is the rear window is tough to see through as it's pretty small. The only money iv spent on it is new tyres and brake pads. It is however now starting to enter it's final phase as it's using a lot of oil and I have more warning lights than a ufo that come and go as they please. I know citroen get a bad rep but this car has been great for me. Are there any cars similar to it in a 2018-2020 model?

Vintage seiko

Picked this up at a charity shop in South Wales for £10 as it wasn't working. Took the back off and the battery had rust on it and had started to leak a little but luckily looks like I caught it in time. Fitted a new battery and it's working great. Iv found out it's a 1979-1980 model. It is a beauty and I'm wearing it daily at the moment
