Paul,

I am not sure if you statement about Harry is correct, but I would think
most people would be hesitant to buy a boat from someone who says "Guess my
price"? Harry is not only asking for JohnH to make an offer, but even after
JohnH makes his offer, Harry will not make a counter offer, he will just
play the "Cold, Colder, getting Warmer" game. I have to be honest, I have
never heard of anyone selling anything with a "Standing Room Only" attitude,
refusing to provide details of the product being sold, and refusing to
provide an asking price or a even providing a counter offer.

Very strange indeed.

It does highlight one of the disadvantages of buying a used boat. You have
to contend with amateurs selling a boat who are too emotionally attached or
who make unreasonable demands to the boat to facilitate the sale.

Worse, Krause is a proven liar with little or no respect for others.
Buying a boat from him represents considerable known risks.
