Title: For the 6th time on ebay!!
Post by: 90grad on September 28, 2005, 11:14:17 am
Here we go again.  This is the 6th time this guy has listed this machine.  At least he finally lowered his asking price (was $750).  I emailed during the last auction and his wife replied he might accept $600-650 if it didn't sell.  Well, it didn't sell, and I emailed back and offered them less than that.  They never replied, which I took as a really firm NO.  I told them what the book value was and subtracted some $$ from that since it is missing shelves, needs rewired, and is a little rusty.  Item #7186114227.

Maybe I'll eventually get the "Josh deal" yet!

The 6-case that won't die

I emailed him but no reply. I guess my Jedi mind tricks don't work on him. I do have an idea. If he gets alot of emails from different people offering him a way lower price and then you jump in with your asking price. If he gets enough emails for way low prices he might come around and take your offer. Just a thought.

That is a good idea.  Book value is $475 and I offered $300 or $350, one of the two.  They are probably still laughing at that.
