[QUOTE="loosescrew, post: 524038, member: 37131"] The way I see it is if a seller is asking 1,500 he's really looking for $750. If he wants $1,500, he best ask $3k and let the seller bargain the price down. I was taught to NEVER pay anyone's asking price no matter how cheap it is. I offered him $500 for the boat and he flipped out and said he'll crush it before he'll sell it for less than its worth. It was a nice boat and likely the best price out there for a rock solid boat but if there's no room to bargain there's no deal. If he had put FIRM in his ad maybe I'd have offered him a bit more.
