The other guy has to sell his boat by the weekend to have the money available?

So it may not happen and you will still get that boat.

Either way, it's just a toy...you shouldn't get worked up over wanting something so trivial...

Now, if I could only live by my own words...easier said than done.

:hi:

RKC, you're exactly correct. It is just a toy. To be looked at in much the same way that some people would view a touring motorcycle. And, of course, my point is that we all love and have our toys. I just hate it that I thought we had a deal, and then he sold it out from under me. It will be a long time before I find another boat in that condition and for that price. I know that there's one out there for me.. I just haven't found her yet.
To me, the guy has no honor, and that makes him, and his boat, damaged goods. :bat:
Still, this one was yar, trim and fit and clean. 100% virgin...still had it's original seats, including the rear seat and the sliding passengers seat. It's gonna take a while to get over her. Ah well, such is life. :head:

I know, like I said: "I wish I could live by my own words".

I am the same way with toys, once I decide I want something, I WANT IT!!!!

and "toys" do keep us "young" and living life instead of just being alive...

Well, if it deal does turn around, maybe you could get it cheaper and name it "Damaged Goods"...but I still like "Destroyer" btw.

Hate that for you Destroyer. I know there will be another come along. You guys seem to have a plethora of V's on the market up there in NJ. Your next lady is out there somewhere. She's probably bustin through the chop as we speak, on a fishin mission, doing what she does best.

sorry to hear about that happened to me once with a car told the guy i was on my way to buy it and he said its yours it was a 40 min drive when i got there there was 2 blokes i said i come to get the car he said sorry i sold it to this guy for more i didnt no which guy i wanted to kill well i left there after ripping up all his grass with my truck and i found a better one and cheaper one 2 months latter .well i think sometimes bad things happen for a reason would u belive all the things that guy told you about the boat now as in conditions of it. well i better shut up cause i bought mine and the guy **** me around for 3 weeks men r a dieing race aspically ones that keep there word :bat:maybe the guy offered him more money

Very tempted to go after that Steiger Craft, but I really want a V21, especially now that I see how nice they are...The hunt continues... Thanks to all you guys for the kind words.. Much appreciated. :clap:

Dang...well IF the guy calls Monday saying you can buy the boat, tell him you found another boat you really like (which you did) but add that you MAY still be intrested in the V for $5k.

heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy DES what is going on with the boats what ended up happening did you go see him:bat: and i hope you left hime there like this:nut:

I ended up in the hospital that Sat, and since he didn't call I presume that he sold it to the other guy. So much for a handshake deal and people keeping their word. :cen: Actually, it's my own fault, I should have insisted on giving him a deposit... I know better than to leave a great deal on the table without putting down a deposit. Don't know what I was thinking.
