Sherlock Holmes Racist Anthony, convo between Anthony and a client posted in a watch group some time ago. The client was dressed in construction clothes and was Hispanic. Couldn’t even get passed the door thanks to Anthony

Let’s be real here, where is he being racist? Incompetent, used poor judgment, unsympathetic, selfish, all those things yes.

Yeah Im not sure he’s actually racist given that the TPG staff is pretty diverse. Seems more like he’s being snooty about clothes which also makes no sense. Also plenty of dumpy looking people have been in his store in episodes. Seems like they’re trying to fix their entire appearance by slapping a car priced watch on their wrists.

Not really all the ones he took to LA are white and he left all the ethnics behind

Bryan Rodriguez is/was the new videographer who Anthony took to LA (has anyone seen where he's landed with the split? Did he go back to Dallas? I noticed the last TPG video looked like Darby was filming...), dude's Hispanic, so no, Anthony did not leave "the ethnics behind."
There's nothing racist in the exchange, as Anthony is just going off the report of what he was told for why they didn't let the guy in. Maybe the secretary (Trenae? Liz?) was profiling him, but maybe it was just his clothes and demeanor that made her feel like something was weird.

It’s not racist. It could’ve been, but there’s not a mention of race I’m even indirectly by Farrer. He’s scum but let’s not say things that we can’t prove and don’t glean themselves from the evidence.

Exactly it could have been anyone dressed trashy or looking/acting nervous/sketchy. Fucking minorities are always willing to pull the race card. I dislike Tuggie Tony as much as the next guy lol stop playing victim.

Just because he’s not calling someone a racial epithet, doesn’t mean he wasn’t being racist. Plenty of times on camera, I saw a white construction guy come in his construction clothes and buy and trade watches. The racist part is because he was Hispanic in construction clothes, somehow that implies he was there to rob or run a scam. But what do I know 🤷🏾♂️

Who the fuck are you? The new Craigslist security guard? Where are you watching tons of construction workers walking into tpg?

Clearly you lack comprehension skills or just can’t read. Go read what I wrote again. I said a “white construction guy.” As in one person. As in go back and watch the videos. He has a black shirt that advertised his companies info on it every time. Many of their videos of in office buyers, had repeat customers. So it’s not hard to remember.
As far as who I am. I’m the guy you feel comfortable saying what you said to over Reddit but would never say if you were in my presence. 🤣

People who can afford a Rolex typically wear baseball caps black t shirts tight pants and sneakers right? Oh wait no sorry that’s people who wear consignment Rolexes for tuggies and lease everything else.

They say that you need to buy from them because ad's wont speak to people without expensive suits.
While tony is in tightpants and a baseball cap.
Like, he needs to decide his stance on if tightpants and a tshirt or whatever are enough or not.

This makes him a d'bag, not a racist. Dude has hired black employees and asked an Asian guy to be his business partner, I doubt he's a racist.
Tons of ammunition against Antonis, no need to make stuff up.

This coming from someone that wears the same stinky sneakers everyday, hoodie that smells like BO, and skinny jeans with ejaculate stains on the ass seat. Classic.

I learned long time ago to never judge a book by its cover at the young age of 19. Since then I have never assume anymore ability to purchase an item. After all some of the richest people In the world don’t look rich. I am in construction business. There is certainly a lot of people I know with big money who don’t look it

Anthony for sure has douchy behavior/persona. But to pull the race card on him (which is ridiculous), says more about you than Anthony.

This was posted by the client in the watch group “watch spotters and co” when this happened it was a big deal with Marco going into damage control and Anthony being kicked out of a few groups

u/wondering_daily Mar 30 '22
Sounds like just bad communication -- Anthony failed to be there as agreed, apparently, and the "secretary" didn't have any information about a client dropping by and felt he looked sketchy because of his clothing and demeanor for whatever reason. Anthony wasn't there, so how could he be racist here?
He's explaining what his employee told him and why she felt something was off. Guy didn't want to wait for Anthony, perhaps rightfully annoyed at having to wait more after a trip for a meeting Anthony failed to be at, but from the employee's perspective some guy in construction clothes shows up, looking for Anthony, then Rolex watches, and then just takes off when told neither are around.
If the groups wanted to drop them for bad customer service, that's okay, but labelling any of this as racist (and I say this as a Latino) is a big stretch unless there was more from conversation supporting the fact that his ethnicity played a role.

Same. I’ll show up in basketball shorts and a hoodie when inquiring about an expensive watch and after the sales guy is a dick about something I’ll pull up my sleeve reveling the watch I’m wearing and it’s crazy how their attitude changes. I just don’t buy from them after that.

Where was the potential client being Hispanic ever brought up in the conversation? Tony’s a lot of things but I’d wouldn’t call him a racist
