I told the owner about your offer several days ago when you PM'ed me with it and the things he said about it...............well I think you know. There was no reason to respond to such a low offer. So the offer was taken to the so called "owner" and he said NO, as far as my job, well who else do you see trying to push a boat at a reasonable price???? So, I guess I did at least everything you would want...........but I have some new rules for a few of you guys: contract with a deposit, or it's not an offer!!

as it should be

Hey Blume... Don't get you panties in a wad.... You should never be offended by someone's offer.... Custom has every right to try and buy this boat as inexpensive as possible, particularly in this environment . Isn't that what he is supposed to do???? I could be totally wrong but I suspect you are not getting many offers these days... Remember... A low ball offer is always better then no offer at all..... And Yes I agree..... No offer is worth presentation without a deposit... A real buyer should always be prepared put his Money where his mouth is....

Hey................your right maxonmike. Custom I appreciate your offer very much, it just won't work for the seller at this time.

But it is still an AWESOME boat!

Blume ...you gotta love me .....just sitting here minding my own business.......

always have.....................................????

i dont really understand all the hate towards sterlling... do thses motors have a history?? i would think sterlling you would not have such a problem.... like ive stated many times... ill walk on a merc boat and always look to the custom power first... i know its not the norm but, i trully dont get all the merc loving going on with this boat... for sure its one of the nicer glads built... all in all, its just a buyers market and if your selling in this market, seller is gonna have to really take it in the shorts... more so than he already is... good luck with the sale.....

I have to say I never get involved in any of the usual oso drama but some of you guys are brutal! This boat is a great deal @ 135000 and everybody here knows it. I myself would buy it but with the state of the economy, I refuse to be a two boat owner. As far as Blume goes, I spoke with him last week and he seemed like a good guy doing just about as much as he could possibly do to sell his clients boats! I do think they would take any" reasonable" offer but the problem is he priced the boat so right that there is not a lot of room to move. My personal feeling is that if the boat was listed at 115000 some of you guys would only want to pay 100000! I am not trying to piss anyone off but give the guy a break. Imho anyone buying this boat should not redo with different motors. There are not alot of these boats built that way from the factory and too many pieces of junk out there already. By the way Blume call me maybe you can sell my boat for me and I will buy this from you for 135000! I have the cash waiting and I promise not to dismantle it!

stecz, Thanks!!!......................I never thought of you as a voice of reason????????????????
