The particular motor in question is listed at $10,000.00, my dragster is listed at $16,900.00 turn key . So I told him that I would have to have some money to boot and he said "THATS NOT GONNA HAPPEN", (exact words) because his engine is way under priced. If you are going to put an ad on here, figure out what the price is and list it!!!! :twisted:
Has anyone else had this problem???
Its not that big of a deal to me. I understand that when your buying, selling, or trading something, supply and demand dominate the price. If I need something now I'm much more likely to buy at a higher price, than if I'm purchasing to resell later. Saying that trade price is higher is just someone wanting to establish a little buying or selling leverage on their product, and everyone trades and buys differently. As long as you buy or trade in the range that your happy with, what difference does it make. Bottom line is if they're trading price is higher so is yours. If both items are priced retail or if both items for trade are priced at wholesale its a wash.
