Default 2001 Top Gun T/S....$100k

Well guys..... the seller and I had agreed upon a price, I had made arrangements to have a compression check and leakdown, drove 8 hrs with money in hand, but after looking at the boat, I decided to pass on it. I've learned over the years that what seems like a good deal at first isn't always as good as it seems.....you get what you pay for. The owner is a nice guy and honest in every way. I'm sure he will sell the boat....it simply wasn't what I had expected.

It is all yours customryder!!!

That's too bad man, but way to make the right decision and wait, after what I'm sure was an 8 hour ride of huge excitement.

I'm sure big Tony can round up another nice one that will please N-Lo in time for Party Cove!

Wait, wait, wait...What happened to all the B.S.?! "it's sold...it's gone...100k took it...That's what the owner got in the end for it...." Just more people trying to make themselves feel better and hoping T/S's will start selling for straight bottom prices so they can afford one??

Thanks for posting the FACTS Chad.

Tank,
Whatever do you mean? That you can't buy a like new T/S Topgun for short money? That prices are not going to keep fallin till they hit zero? That you get what you pay for? How ridiculous.

I thought he was the one saying it was sold???

as i said in the last tread i did not want it.. being able to afford it has nothing to do with me buying it or not ..on my part anyway..

Are you sure you don't want it? You seem to be very interested in it despite the fact. I noticed that once Rob got you the seller's contact info, you removed your "Looking for a 38-42ft with Merc power for under $150k". After you found out someone pulled the trigger first, you created another thread "2001 Top Gun T/S for $100k". Once I posted on that thread that I decided to pass on it, you again deleted that thread. The seller said you called him twice on Saturday to see if I got down there yet....unless there is another Jeff from Paducah calling the seller. You've also sent me a couple of PM's yesterday to call you. If you are wanting to ask questions about the boat, I would probably not be a good one to talk to, as I drove 1100 miles to look at a boat that was labeled between a 7 and a 9. Honestly,I suggest that anyone that is interested in this boat should spend your own time and money to go look at it yourself.

Jeff- I'll call you later today. I didn't get home until late last night....I got caught up in the traffic fiasco north of Memphis. It turned an 8 hr trip into a 12 hr trip home.

Dreamer- Jeff is correct....approx 280 on the hour meters.
