They ask for a high price just to sell for a lower price , Thats the way it work's , Now if they asked for a lower price do you think people will give them a higher price

Is my boat worth more because it's one of the last 24s made. It's clean and the company will never make another? Man I hope so!

Or people like me will completely blow it off since I assume the seller is just unrealistic, too many deals out there to waste time with dreamers.

Well picked up on the grammar but you should check your previous post and the phrase "there boat". Dont you mean 'their boat'?........ Ouch

Sorry, I'm not a stirrer but we all make mistakes sometimes.

Sorry if any of these are people on here's boats. I didn't post any but I feel really bad for the guys that dropped a disgusting amount of money restoring 20-30 year old boats and thinking they are going to get anywhere near what they have in them, there are a few in the oso classifieds but I feel bad posting them. I also find it funny how long people are willing to hold onto things and not move on their price. Every year that thing sits it gets another year older, everything on it gets worse, and they will make you feel like an a-hole for offering 10% below the asking price..and I'm talking about in general not just with boats. People do it with property all the time and they have to pay taxes & insurance every year. Some people are very proud of their ****, let it go and move onto the next thing in your life. Again I apologize if I offended anyone if these are their boats it is just my opinion.

Wow , you found some prime examples there! Although that apache is pretty sweet.

I really did not mean to start anything here at all by posting.

couple things stand out - really the starting price tag is way out of line - this just took 99 % of people out the mix for buying it as they will move on looking for something else especially internet shopping --- so no big deal but great if it is not priced to high and someones buys it,

The used boat market is getting slimmer and slimmer to choose from inwhich possible price increases for used boats across the board ( I/O's especially Sportboats ).. If so this can lead possibly for an increase in new boat sales inwhich can be a real good thing..
