Thats because all you see in your world is the outcome of your idea baout it .

Well it's my world...you just live in it.

IMO...34k seems reasonable. It looks like a fairly clean boat with low hours. Like others have stated, if he isnt pressed to sell he wont. Showing up with money probably wont help the situation. Actually I think it would hurt it. He will see all the cash and ask himself why cant you finance the rest. Thats how I would think of it.

There are good deals to be had for sure so doont get hung up on one boat. Keep all your options open.

I would agree cash doesn't mean jack when your talking thousands of dollars. Its not like going to a garage sale and item is 50 and you offer 20. If Im selling something for 40 and really want 35-37 if somebody shows up with cash 30 grand it wouldnt sway me a bit and they would be turned around as fast as they show up.

I buy and sell snowmobiles every other year to upgrade. And let me tell you I price my sleds at what the market is in the area and usually willing to come down a little. But some joker shows up with half or a quarter what I am asking he doesnt make me mad but it in no way compels me a bit to sell to him
