perhaps she misunderstood you or you made a mistake in the decimal point in your offer as in 15,000.00 as opposed to 1,500.00 maybe?

so, you freely admit that the deal sounded too good to be true, and that it truly may have been "too good to be true".... and then complain when you find out that you aren't going to pick it up for $1500?
sounds like you and your fist need to figure out what the problem is on your end... _________________ póg mo thóin

I think it's pretty clear it was $18,500 but she was willing to go for $15K in cash immediately.
I would not go over to some unknown person's house at night with $15K in cash though. I have done stuff like that in cash, even for WAYYYYY more money but I meet the person at the bank or in a secure location. _________________ How to Post Photos

It's obvious to me she meant $15,000.

$1500 was clearly a type-o. There is no reason to get all bent out of shape. Asking if she meant $1850 is a totally dick move, I don't think you could have found a running 3-fold ragtop bug for $1850 20 years ago. Is the car worth $18.5K? Not in my opinion but it's closer to the actual value than $1850. |
