Feel your pain Todd. 1) I'm trying to sell the 75 Formula out here in Sask for $3500 and get e-mails saying " I'll give you $2000 cash", or "what's your bottom cash price", or "would you take a quad on trade even up" and then have an add else where asking a grand less, not even a come and look. Free adds is the scourge of classic car sales as so much crap has flooded onto the market.
2) Yeah my oldest is going to university this fall, out of town to boot when the original plan was for the first 2 years to be here before she transferred.
You know I have always stood by an offer should be in that 10 to 15% from asking, after looking at the car. If it was far worse I would tell the seller and wish him luck and leave my number and the amount I was willing to pay. This B.S. of just blurting out a number that is nearly 1/2 of asking is just an insult.
It's an insult when they haven't even bothered to come see the car. The guy on the phone sounded incredulous that I wouldn't drop the price to his offer!
Sale Pending. She's heading to Newfoundland. Special thanks to Leo for connecting me with the buyer. It's going to feel really strange having an empty garage!

Congratulations Todd. Can't wait to see it. Leo knows a lot of car guys. He has a beautiful 73 Olds Cutlass himself.
