Default I hate boat buyers - Part Deaux...

My potential buyer called again this morning - wanted to make sure
that I "understood" his offer.

Get this - he felt that based on his "surveyor's" report that perhaps
he made an inappropriate offer. He went into this long explanation of
the why's and how's then said this:

"I don't want the engine as it's very old. Based on your asking
price, my "surveyor's" report and the cost of a new four stroke Honda
long leg which will cost me at least $3,000, I'll up my offer to
$1,000." Basically, he wants me to buy his new engine for him.

I told him never to call me again. :)

Ever.


Hee hee.. you're like me. Once someone ****es me off & insults me I
wouldn't care if he showed up at the door with the full asking price in
cash. I'd throw his sorry ass down the porch stairs and give him 10 seconds
to get off the property before I unleash the dog.
