Guy come from NJ for my motor today...

[spareparts]

I know how you feel MJ, everyone thinks they can get a better deal after watching pickers, or pawn stars or any of those show, they feel like they have to beat you down regardless of what its worth. When I was selling my proline, I had people try to tell me it needed this and it needed that, i told them i had just replaced this and that and it was brand new, or I had just serviced it. I had people tell me they needed it checked out by a professional, i told them i was a professional and i would be happy to check it out while they watched every thing i did, when they said they wanted their guy to do it, i asked who their guy was, odds were they were friends of mine. I told them to call their guy on the phone and tell them who was selling it, they would tell them not to worry about having it checked out as i was stand up guy. They would call while i was standing there. I walked in the house and left two guys standing in the yard after I got tired of hearing their BS. All it came down to, they wanted to give me nothing for my boat, the guy who ended up buying it was a good friend of one of my best friends, my friend called me and asked what my bottom dollar was, i told him, his friend called me to ask about the boat, I told him what he needed to know, I told him if he had any intention of offering any lower than I told him, not to waste my time, the price was firm, if he wasted my time, the price went up, he bought the boat for what i told him and has been pleased with it. I haven't heard a complaint from him about it, I still sold it too cheap, wish I would have kept it, but oh well, its gone and now I've got to get back to work on the V

MJ Ive told them the same thing!! get the hell off my property!!!! hmmm how much you want for that motor? what does shipping cost? lol!! just kidding.

[reelapeelin]

MJ that's the kind of A-hole if you were askin' $25 for the motor would want it for $15...you didn't do anything wrong...skaroo him and I hope he has the squirts in his pants 15 mins into his 6 hr drive...

Mj I hate you had to deal with something like that. I believe your motor is priced right. If my credit were not screwdd with the car I bought I would have bought it. But when I talked to the bank about it they told me to go to hell! Keep your head up and dont back down!

MJ, first off, that guy was lying... I make that drive at least 4 times a year to visit my sis in law... 5 hours tops.. Second, your price is more than fair.. even if there were issues with the engine, that's still a great price.
Tell people in your ad that the price is FIRM, in capital letters, and to not waste your or their time trying to haggle price.

Oh, and we need some kind of password to view your youtube vid of the engine.

And like RW said "F'ing Jersey douche bags!........ " Can't trust a one of them...

MJ, you did right & you know it, guys like that are never satisfied, you did the right thing, tell him to get out & forget about the slug. I've had the same problem before & have learned that once they start picking, it's time to tell them to roll.
Wish you were closer, it's a 20 hour drive for me.

MJ - It'll sell. Tax return season is right around the corner and the boat shows will get people thinking about things other than the holidays. You knew that NJ guy was a unreasonable nut job before he set foot in your yard. He probably didn't have the money. Don't waste anymore energy stewing over Craigslist crazy people . . . Put it up on ebay :)
