Tire kickers PISS ME OFF!

[manimal]

I had a few people come by today and look at my 72 Cheyenne. The first couple of guys were really into the truck, but were waiting for their deals to seal. The last guy wasted 2 fricken hours of my time, to only tell me that I should be ashamed for asking such a hhigh price for an old "BEATER"!! I was PISSED!!! He said he was expecting something in "PRISTINE" condition. FOR 3700 DOLLARS!!!??????? What an A$$!
Sorry had to vent,Thanks

Damn, I wish my beater looked that good. He was playing mind games with you and it looks like it was working. Chill out, piss on that dude, he is just jealous.

[RACINJASON22]

"PRISTINE" for $3700 I think I would of had to walk him off of my property.

If I wasn't really into wanting to do a frame off resto on a shorty I would even think about making a cross country road trip just to look at your truck man.

I've been in your shoes a few time and it really gets my goat to, so vent away. RJ22

A Cheyenne with a big block & A/C for $3,700 WHAT A DEAL! What an egghead of a guy to waste 2 hours of your time then tell you the "prisitine" line. You should think about listing it on Ebay. You have no one to waste your time and I'll bet you sell it for that EASY! I would have seriously considered giving that guy a knuckle sandwich or tell him off extensively, then laugh in his face Good luck, do the Ebay thing you won't be sorry.

[special-K]

It took him 2 hours to figure out it wasn`t prestine?

[centsless]

That truck would easily bring close to $7k here. All of them here are rusted BAD. Dont let the guy get to you. You know what it is worth, dont let somebody like that ruin your day.

[jerry moss]

i wonder if he even knows what "pristine" means. your truck looks pretty darn nice for the money you're asking. hell i got over 13K in mine and it doesn't even move yet. i'm afraid i'd be in jail if i'd been there, some people are just plain stupid to offend a person like that. hold your ground, you'll get your asking price without any trouble.

[GREASEMONKEY72]

i bought my truck for 3400 and its nothing special, and youre truck is in better shape than mine

[cstm68]

well i guess he doesnt really know his trucks!
that truck is worth lots more than $3700

[krue]

If it had been me he would have a pristine shiner on both sides of his face.

I feel your pain. I get several tire kickers when I go to sell. Sometimes the same guys locally each time. I believe I ask very fair prices and tell all I know and still get lots of dreamers. Seems everyone wants one but for about 1/3 the value. Your truck looks great. What part of Cali. are you in? I don't but my trucks to sell but sometimes I need to sell to help finance next move like I have recently. Hang in there, that will sell and buyer will be tickled.

Take care.

[1bad chevy]

if i had a pic i would show you a 69 for $3000 that is in half the shape yours is and they got it so dont let him gteya down its worth every pennie

[special-K]

I hate "kickers",too.One thing I hate when selling,a true sign the guy`s an idiot,is when the first thing that comes out of their mouth is,"how much less will ya take for it?"My reply is usually,"It`s priced to sell."I mean,they haven`t even asked any questions about the condition,haven`t heard it run,felt the brakes,checked for front end play,checked for leaks,looked under for rot...How can you negotiate before you know what you`re negotiating for?

[EZ4U2C]

Maybe he was in a bad mood because his wife would'nt let me have any money to buy it.

[Shane]

the guy needs a foot in his a$$ ... to direct him off the property, of course.

[haokah]

please, here's one that just went for over 5k

Some people don't know how to shop for vehicles. I agree with Special K, I respond with lets drive it first, look it over real good, and I tell them its priced right. Your truck looks good to me. I hate when people dump on my stuff thinking they will make me feel nieve and give it to them. That is just rude. But I also think you have to be willing to come down a few dollars when you sell a used car just so that the buyer feels like they got a good deal. So its like a garage sale, price it a little higher than you are willing to accept... or through in that old lawnmower with the deal.

[GMan69]

Do you have an alarm or a kill switch on your truck? I think that SOB was up to something.

[PanelDeland]

Shoulda just asked him if he doesn't have TV.Cause you can sure tell he ain't been watching Barret/Jackson.Why that there truck is easy worth about $20,000.00 on B/J.He must not be follerin the market on these ol' trucks like a real cullecter.Musta just been a lookyloo,tryin to play the part of a true connie suer.He'd prolly justa hoolled sum greval er rocks and farwood in it enyway.Prolly best he didn't git it and ruin it.Let him make a down on a new Z71 with his $3700.00 and make payments.Seems more like it fits his mentality.
As far as the 2 hours.You didn't really waste them you spent them trying to advise a mentally handicapped person.Obviously if he had done his research he wouldn't have thought you were too high.So he handicapped himself.You only lost 2 hours,he has to live with his ignorance forever.

[JAKES 68GMC]

Manimal, thats a nice truck, well worth the $3700 asking price. I've seen them up here with paint peeling, patches, rust, and worn out SBC's for $9500. Go figure.

[manimal]

Well, the right one will come along. And when they do I highly doubt they wioll be disapointed Just some BUTT FUNGUS love to screw anothers day to hell.
Thanks Guys for letting me vent----LOVE this place!

I agree with everyone that that is a very nice truck for the money, I also agree with Gmman, if that guy spent 2 hours looking at/all over that truck & asking all kinds of questions & to act like that, he might have been figuring out enough about the truck & you to come back & steal it, make sure you lock that thing up tight & put it where you can see it.
