I went to inspect a 914 that needed quite a bit of work, rust was very minimal but the engine did not run and it needed a lot of cosmetic help. After checking with my shop regarding some repaires just to make it roadworthy I made the seller an offer $900 below his asking price.........You would have thought I just kicked his dog.

The conversation went from a very friendly rapport to a pissed off attitude and curt responses. Seller was so mad he refused to make a counter offer.

I have been looking for a 914 for several months, and this is the third time that I have had sellers get so mad, and I wasn't making low ball offers. I always start low to get the ball rolling and usually get a counter offer, but lately.....wow.

I sold my 911 last summer, I was asking $14,900 and had offers of $6-8k, I always countered or made light and said that would be a good downpayment, but would never respond like a jackass......

Anyway, just wondered if it was me or have others been experiencing this.
