Prices - 2 part question

[patrick232]

Well I don't mind offending, even if I don't really mean to. I have what I am willing to spend, want more than I can afford, and will gladly see if someone will take it. You never know when it will be an offensive moment vs I'll take it moment.

Starting with the emails now and will send some offensive offers now, but when the snow flies they might not sound so offensive. Currently I found a 2007 Super Air 210 TE for $43K with under 100 hours, sent them an email asking about an offer in the $30's. Also have called a couple of dealers with 2010 Moomba LSV, looking for the low $40's on a new one. Only time will tell and if we have to bum boat rides no big deal, since I store a couple of boats for my buddies.

I like the way you think

It only takes one, right?

It only takes one, right?

Sometimes it take more than one to get the right one.

[kaneboats]

But then the right one is the "one" so it still only takes one.

[schuylski]

What if the one is the third, after seeing the fourth, but the second comes first??? Or maybe Kane is the one?

Got my boat towards the end of August - like someone said it helps to be in no rush, another "one" will come along... Do the research, you might miss 1 or 2, but then eventually you work out your price point and will be ready to jump on the next "one" when it comes along. And you'll love it every bit as much as the first one. And every time I say one now it sounds funny...

As the saying goes in real estate - "the deal of the century comes around every week"

Don't be in a hurry! Don't get emotional! And you'll come across the "deal" where everybody wins.

Easier said than done

Haha

i would be very interested to see who on this forum didnt buy their boat from the heart, im sure 99% of everyone here bought on emotion and probably feel they paid x too much i know i did but hey the heat of the moment and getting my boat the first drive etc i have no regret

or do i haha
