He's right, you do. If you think the airplane is worth 10K, why did
you bust his balls and tell him you've only got 15K to spend?

I think that YOU are the goofball, not the seller. With your cocky
know-it-all attitude I would lose interest real quick. Who needs nonsense like this from people like you? Just buy the plane if you like it, or learn to read that the price is firm and move on.

Dude, from your posts your are having continuous troubles with
sellers. That means, it's time to think about your attitude! Please take this in a friendly way--yes, there are plenty of goofy sellers. So what? I wish I had written stories about all the goofy sellers I ran into. One guy, supposedly an A&P, had refurbished his airplane and repainted it--with a spray can under the awning of his double-wide. I am not making this up, the wings looked like a spray can job and he even had photos to prove it! He was quite proud of his ingenuity. Another guy had a fairly runout looking plane, but the interior had just been redone with--I am not making this up--electrically heated seats! This was an Ercoupe. They were extremely well padded and since I am 6 feet, the whole test flight (he flew) was with me bent over like a pretzel. Afterwards, seeing I wasn't showing a lot of enthusiasm, he pointed out the many interior pockets as a selling point and said he would throw in his nice metal insulated coffee cup free gratis. Another guy had a plane that hadn't been used for so long there were cobwebs hanging off it. I declined the opportunity of a test flight. Another plane, nicely equipped and apparently well-maintained, had a nearly runout engine and vibrated like crazy. Why go on? You get the idea. The funny thing is, I had the time of my life talking to these people, looking at their planes, and sometimes flying with them. I didn't insult them. Each one thought their plane was the best--and to them, it was. I had other opinions and kept them to myself. I found something nice to say about each one, politely made some excuses, and left. I almost didn't look at the last plane on my list. But on a whim I drove over to see it (2 hour drive). It looked good, and now I had the experience to tell. His asking price was fair (I had learned what a fair price was too), but I couldn't fly it as it was in annual. A couple of weeks later he flew up to my airport to give me a test flight. I accepted his price, conditional on my mechanic inspecting it, which we did the next day. The deal was struck and I was a new plane owner! Gad, the last time I was that nervous was on my wedding day.

They make the "industry" look bad? What industry are you talking about?
You are complaining about individuals who don't want to sell THEIR airplanes for your price and/or terms. Think about that for a moment. Mike MU-2 "MRQB" wrote in message ...
