yeah the rent is so high it unbelievable I was asking 38k for the house and every 1 say it way too low and there are a few already rented out for over 45k
so need to put the price up to 45k.

so why didnt those tenants rent yours for less instead? just curious. anyway, why should u complain? 7k a month can fund a lot of mods for you.

Watch shops in central dont make any money.... but they are there just to be there and stop competition from taking the space.

you would be surprised how much these watch shops actually make... its crazy!

Come around to AK's garage sometimes, ricky1329 (a.k.a. Electron) and the rest of us, if we are there, are more than happy to let you know the whole world of possibilities with our bimmers!

Hey guys, if you are planning on asking AK to work on your bimmer soon, you'd better hurry and do it now, I know he has only a small window of time open recently
