You might be right, actually.
-About a month ago, I was getting in my car at [of all places, the Publix grocery store], and some guy with friend pulled up in a Mercedes and asked me what year the car was. "1985" I replied.
"Want to sell it?" He asked.
"Everything is for sale at the right price" I said, not too serious.
"What do you want for it?"
I thought for a second.
"I'd take $15,000" I said.
This is classic:
"Best I can do is $12,000"
What about that? That guy sounded serious, but the chances of a cashiers check for $12,000 showing up in my hand that afternoon? Come on! At the same time....an idiot like that that knew nothing about these cars, but saw something well-maintained and with fascinating lines and expensive name? You never know-
Nah. I'd never take advantage of someone like that~
N!
