yes a little steam is gone. I even requested a price and still got make me an offer. asked for a price again and still MAKE AN OFFER. well I should have started at 1.00 and see what was his response was. BUT I bet it would have been negative. so>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> perhaps he missed out on a sale? its simple/ I THINK MY CAR IS IN THE 15,000.00 PRICE AREA! not that difficult to say? plus those of us who have traded and purchased several cars know that [ make an offer ] usually means its expensive compared to a real value. not always but usually. I too don't open a ad without a price but I really wanted this 55 chevy. ill just look elsewhere. the car may have been too good for me anyway!! steam has been let off/ I was so discouraged I had to work so hard to get a price. that is after how great he demanded his car was compared to every other vehicle on this earth. ill pass was a quick response from me . just a simple 'ill pass' just like a simple $$ price $$ could have saved him time explaining the car and not giving a price again. just my damn luck I just don't understand why we cant price a car/ save all the mystery/ save the embarrassment for those who only have a small budget/ limit all the 'HOW MUCH ARE YOU ASKING' phone calls. I would rather just get the call of those who can afford the car and not those who are dreaming. I must be wrong with my way of thinking. I value my time off the phone. a call seldom comes when you are ready for it, mine often come when I am under a vehicle, or driving. ill let the sleeping dog rest now and no further comment from me. thanks for letting me vent to all that have read!! happy holidays, pray for the vets and their families!!
