Back to the subject, I agree with the original message. When I was shopping late 2015 I made an offer on the 800 ZUL powered 39 NT that Shrogen (Pier 57) had listed. It was listed at $159k, I offered $135k and the guy just flat said, nope gotta get a lot closer to the asking price. I never called back. Pretty sure a few months later the asking price was down to $139k. Prior to that I tried to deal on a Donzi listed at Performance for I'm pretty sure asking price was $149k. I started at $125k and the salesman said the owner turned it down so I asked any counter? This was after I waited and waited and never heard anything so I called back. He said owner wants to full amount, not sure if he really wants to sell it etc... Then don't list it.
If he wanted $135k, wouldn't he be asking that? This is why "sellers" have the attitude when buyers call on an adv, they get sick and tired of wasting their time on low ball offers. |
Ok, back on topic...

That's funny. When I bought my boat, I was talking with the seller, and I pointed out a comparable (but less desirable to me) boat on the market for $9500 less, and without blinking, he dropped the price $9k over the phone. He was pretty desperate to get rid of it though, since he was going to pick up his new boat in a few weeks and needed this one gone. I've driven to look at boats before and been disappointed in what the seller thinks is "mint.....9/10...etc" and what my expectations of those descriptions are. I didn't have high hopes when I drove 12 hours to look at it / drag it home, but it was even nicer than the guy claimed. THAT NEVER HAPPENS! lol. |
Yea Wasted, sounds like you got the royal treatment and deal!

Warning thread hijack.
Who is buying all the big motorhomes ? Most dealerships have a significant inventory of Class A and pusher types. Many class A sticker at $2ooK and pushers are higher. |

QUESTION. If he was asking $159k, why would you offer him $25k less...thats ridiculous and insulting.

Yes. It hauls lots of free candy, and gets a lot of weird stares.
