People tell me they "just" this or "just" that or "it's got a new battery". My response is always the same - "I'm buying it as junk - $xxx a ton. It's listed as yyy tons." Probably why I don't get many cars - hard to compete with "minimum of $500". Then they're too embarrassed to call me back when they figure out it's not quite as it seems. Same as the ad my wife showed me tonight where a parts store is buying batteries for $5 each. Small print - $5 is a store coupon. I'm offering $4 in cash. As a professional auto mech with ten batteries laying around, which would you rather have - $50 coupon for some junk or $40 in cash on the spot?
