Title: Find of the week Post by: Pat Pixley on August 15, 2007, 09:53:37 pm Well it was the find of the week last weekend A vendo63 style star
with wood grain and all :biggrin:. Got a call last Friday from a guy thet I don't even know ask if I was the one that buys Coke machines (So I said YEAH I'm the guy) he said it was square and chest high and got cold(and that is all he could tell me about the machine) and asked what I would pay for a machine like that (OK YEAH RIGHT) so I told him between $50 & $150 his reply was well I need more than $50 so went out Saturday & look at it he was not there talked to him offered $150 he said he would have to talk to his wife. (NEXT DAY) Sunday call the gentleman and asked what they came up with He told me his wife wanted $200 then he said what were you thinking and I said $175 and he said the wife does not need to know about the $25 less so picked it up Sunday ok. And here is the kicker I never meet the guy, He told me to leave the money in the cabinet in the garage. It was a easy deal, I like those.

(NEXT DAY) He told me his wife wanted $200 then ............ This seems to be a growing negotiating tactic in this country :veryangry: What a wimp :biggrin: Title: Re: Find of the week Post by: Pat Pixley on August 16, 2007, 09:58:14 am Well I agree with you on that Glen, But I'm just happy
