Theres this guy that owns property close by, maybe 10-15miles away. used to be a repair shop. He has probably over a dozen old scrap cars sitting on his lot. I say scrap because they have been there for the 2 and a half years iv been working at our shop, havent moved and have grass growing through them. Most if not all are late 80s early 90s.

Now this guy is an older fellow and is tough to negotiate with. He doesnt want to part with anything. The old owner of our shop approched him a few years ago and offered to buy them for scrap. He offered over 300 per car. The guy declined. That was over 4 years ago, I wouldnt want to pay more than 200 per car now. maybe 250 tops. Next to zero parts resale on them cause they are so old.



Has anyone had any experience or luck buying stuff from people like this? I will be approaching him in the spring. Any tips or tactics to negotiate with this type? Any advice is appreciated
