You gave him some instant karma when you hung up on him.
All that went before was a form of participatory theater.
You were the audience.
Thanks for the review.
I've seen these kinds of plays before as I'm sure you have.
Sounds to me like you were too tired to participate fully, otherwise
you could have got rid of this joker early if you really wanted
the curtain to come down.
How many guys here have run into these clowns trying to sell you
something you don't want? This "buyer" was playing all the sales
tricks.
My favorites are the ones who get mad when you flat out tell them to
beat it. It's sort of fun being director and actor at once.
Cars are a lot easier to buy because they have established values
with blue book, assuming some minimum conditions.
I've bought quite a few used cars from private sellers who were
asking blue book and I just gave it to them without haggling.
Most of these were for my 7 kids.
One I offered $500 less because it was a Pontiac and the kid picked
it. I always pick certain Chevys.
The seller said no, and I said ok, let's do it at your price. The car
worked out fine, despite me breaking my certain Chevy only rule.
I'm just glad I don't sell anything myself, since I get enough theater
from the actors trying to sell me something.
Your story and Einboch's tire story just have me shaking my head,
wishing I could have seen it.
Great stories.
