[MBZ] Are My Expectations Too High?

2007-12-04 Thread Robert Rentfro
Read what this says:

 

http://phoenix.craigslist.org/car/494402467.html

 

Now that I've seen it, here is the real life translation:

 

No rust, most of the paint faded away, each seat is a different color,
headliner saggy, dash cracked, would not start due to glow plug relay (I'm
guessing), driver's seat all squashed,  carpet toast.etc.

A kind description of a car I reckon Kaleb would wince at giving $500
for...or are my expectations too high?

"especially with its negotiable price."

Why would they name a price and then say its negotiable?

He did say price is negotiable.  Let him know what you think the car  
is really worth.  Sounds like it will need $2k to make it look nice,  
but if it runs well, that could be worth doing.  Offer $1500 and walk  
away

If it ran nice maybe. $500 for a non-starter, after making
sure the cam turns with the crank.
