Tell him you'd take this as a trade...

Pre-Owned Inventory&

I dealt with lots of those types in the last month selling my p/u. No end to the rediculous offers and request especially:

can you go to this site and find an insurance quote for me???
can you look at this nat'l avg database and meet their suggested value??
Will you meet me 2 hours from your house and also take half your asking price?

NO, NO and NO

I never even bothered to repost or bump (if you can) my craigs add.

and then people have the nerve to get mad at you for not accepting a lowball and bother to keep emailing to tell you that you are out of line on price and need to come to reality.

Reality is...... I got 100 less than my asking price in the front yard

Hell i'd at least give ya $4501

I really wanted to include the picture that I found of him in my reply, but that would be too creepy. I figured if he got nasty, I would just CC the Yow Brothers (owners).

I held off on CL for a while, but figured what the heck. I have a kid from Boone that is peppering me with questions. The best prospect so far is a Mudder in Vegas that seems very serious.

The way I see it, if it sells tomorrow, fine. If it sells in six months, fine. If it doesn't sell at all, awesome, I'll keep it.

that's the spirit.

wow, who knew? I, unfortunately, think I fall on the other end - usually end up close to the asking price of the seller -- I think I've lost more money than I should have in the past, but wow - I don't think I'd have the b*lls to lowball like that... must be fun to deal with.
