What if you got there, and he said, A guy who shows up in a 15 year old Silverado probably can't afford my asking price. How about I sell it to you for minimum minus $5000." What would you have paid?

Reminds me of a semi-recent magazine article about one of my old cars. The current owner was talking about how he helped a previous owner buy the car from me back in the early 1990's. He talked about how slick he was to hide the name and profession of his buyer friend so I would not raise the price knowing that the guy "had money." How nice of him to impugn my integrity in print.

Unbeknownst to him, I knew exactly who was buying it back then and I make it a policy that when I agree to a selling price, I am a man of my word, and stick to it.

I saw the current owner recently and politely mentioned that I was not happy with what he said in that article. I then walked away, but not before I casually mentioned that I still had all sorts of photos of the car from the original owner that never went with the car when I sold it because they were part of my personal restoration documentation album and because his buyer friend didnt want them at the time.

I have the same name of a cheesy actor from the 80's. When I google my name a bunch of his pages turn up.
