I Put an ad for a car for sale in the paper.
Get a call right off from this guy who is more interested in telling me all the woes of his life about mother in hospital, he's got kids, needs to get to FL on and on and on~ ~ ~.
Me: "Ya wanna see the car or not?"
More of his boring story.
Interrupting him again: I articulate the failings of the car ( there are a few it's a 1995 car).
Eventually he is aggressive and is on his way to see it and wants to pay CASH (Woo Hoo) but only wants to pay half the asking price.
I was somewhat flummoxed at why the offer of cash was such a big deal for him - - did he think I'd extend credit? Oh Well.
I tell him what I'd take (1/4 off the asking price) and advise him that unless he has that much on his person or can get it, not to trouble himself showing up.
He troubles himself and eventually arrives at the address I provide.
When he arrives (in a $60,000 truck) he is boisterous, trashy, loud, and - - dumb. He proceeds to address in the negative and expand upon every single aspect of this rather old and inexpensively priced car in great detail - as if I care. I guess he thinks he's negotiating.
Three times I stop him and tell him: "You either want or you don't, either way I don't care but the car is what it is."
After a few rounds of him repeating "IT'S ROUGH OHHH IT'S ROUGH ~~~" shaking his head yada yada. He suggests halving the half he offered on the phone. This would be 1/4 of the asking price.
I closed the car up locked it and walked away. I got nuthin to say at that point. The whole routine was just that: a routine with which this guy fishes for weak players low balling till he finds a sucker.
Now he is angry~!! How dare I .
What a galloping looser~!!
I'm glad I sleep with guns.
