Yeah, when I looked at it he had a sign on it for $4500. I tried talking him down on the disc’s and he wouldn’t budge. Just didn’t give shit if he sold something or not. He sits and smokes and bullshits with his buddies every day. He gave you the same discount as I got. He told my wife a few days before $125.00, then a few days later he tells me $150.00.😜 I told him he gave my wife a price of $125.00 a couple of days before. He actually acted like I was trying to screw him over. Wouldn’t go one dollar lower than $125.
Reminds me of a guy that Corey Young put me in touch with to buy a bunch of D60s from.
First Corey says $1200 for a pair of cucv axles. I'm like OK, I can sell them for $1800 easy.
Drive 650 miles and sure enough there is a pile of axles. I say, OK so $1200 for a 60 and 14b? Nope, $1200 for a D60. Fuck, OK. How about $7k (all I had) for 7 axles, he looks at me like I was stupid and couldn't do math. He say, $1200 x 7 would be 8400. OK, well would you take $7k for 7 axles? No. Well, I'll give you $7k for 6 axles? No, 6 axles would be $7200........
Well, would you knock $200 for buying 6?
No
......
I notice a few empty housings, and thought it might be a good start for me, since I was replacing almost everything anyway. So I ask how much.
$300
Ok, how about 5 axles and 1 housing for $6k? No, 5 axles and 1 housing would be $6300......
I finally best him down to $6100. So I got a whopping $200 off.
BTW, it was fucking pouring rain this whole time, dude didn’t get haggling at all, and gave zero fucks about selling or the fact I drove 650 miles 1 was for this killer deal.
Apparently he used to buy tons of old CUCV trucks for $3-400 ea at auctions. Pull the axles out and off the trucks. At one point he had a supposed pile of 50+ axles.
He thought he was making out, but dumbass should have held onto the complete truck as those fuckers are $6k+ easy now.
