I love wheeling and dealing with car salesmen. I make it a habit of a least once a month going in and just seeing how much I can get them to drop the price, then walk away with no intent of buying.  Some are easier than others, but its fun nonetheless.  That truck I recently picked up I talked them down from $16,000 to $13,000, then got $2000 for my old beater pick up to boot!(That bluebooks at $1100 trade in value)  Took me 2 hours, and I had to walk a couple times, but they finally sold it to me (I really wasn't serious on buying that one either, but I couldn't resist the powa of 410 lbs. of torque!)

I love to barter! My wife refuses to go with me because she says "you're embarassing sometimes with the way you treat salesmen"....hey! They're a single-celled animal! Why not treat them rude when they won't come down in price!

Diseased minds think alike.

A friend and I played a round of golf once and the marshall assigned us a third.  After we wrapped up the front 9 (he wasn't going on) we got to talking about what "we did".  He got a little embarassed and said "I'm a car salesman".  There was a long silence that was broken when I replied "at least you're not a lawyer."

Whoever wrote your sig line is not only very insightful, but a genius as well!

I bet you're one of those who tries to make artists come down on their prices, Ripsnort.  Yeah, I get calls from people sometimes wanting to know what such and such a painting or etching sells for.

From now on, my response is gonna be "I only tell my prices to serious buyers."
