Chance for 10 PST's and a SideClip
on: February 25, 2009, 02:48:35 AM
Alright guys I have a chance to buy 10 PST's and a Sideclip all with minor damages. The seller told me give him my best offer. Help me out here without looking at them and seeing or knowing what is wrong with them I am not sure what to offer. I dont want to lowball him and upset him but then again I dont want to overpay.

Dilema dilema I have a number in mind but I would like some advice.

Anyone throw out some numbers to me.

Thanks

Find the MSRP and negotiate between 1/2 & 2/3 the MSRP

If it's the guy I am thinking it is and he says that he has them and emailed you back I might go lower than what you are thinking because he seems interested :D

If it is him I have dealt with him before and got a couple of sweet deals from him a while back on some "best offers" :tu:

I am sure it is the guy you have dealt with I have gotten some good deals from him as well. I am on the fence though. Do I really want to spend that much on a bunch at once. Half the fun is finding them and haggling. Then there is that darn Sideclip.

I might just do maybe five PST's and the Sideclip. I still need to get that new shotgun and work is slow these days. :think:

I here ya $30 or $40 dollars here and there isn't that hard to come by for a tool here and there ;)

But $100 or more (even for several tools) is just a little harder to cough up :)

Would be fun to get that many at once in 1 aspect but in another way searching and finding each 1 is just as much fun :D

Of course if I had the money at the time I might lay the hammer down :o ;) :D

I'd offer $125 cash...comes out to $11.36 per tool.  If he's wishy washy offer $150 cash ($13.64 per tool)...I woulden't go higher than not without being able to see/handle the tools.

"Minor damage" can mean different things to different people...

Yeah he won't respond back at all if the offer isn't what he wants :D Can you tell I know from experience ::) :D

If you are really interested just offer a little more and eventually you will hit his bottom dollar ;)

The market price of bismuth and tungsten is way down this year, so you should end up with some extra spending money. :D

No doubt there will be some bitter pills to swallow between now and 2012 :-\

Lets just say every trip to the shop includes picking up a couple hundred rounds of something to store away  :tu:
