I normally don't get too involved, but, I was just reading everything in Crackerhead's post about the 330 and I am truely shocked at how many people flamed him for "taking advantage" of his poor, poor friend.
Now I ask- How many of you guys have done the same thing, where you find out the price, and knowing it's too cheap, keep your mouth shut and follow through with the deal. Be it at a hardware store where they only ring up 1 instead of 5 or 10, or a local deal with a neighbor. And what about auctions? If you get it too cheap are you gonna go back and pay more than you bid for it just because the owner is someone you know? Sure you may bid more, but once the bidding stops and the dust settles you bought it at what the market brought at that time, no matter if the market is based on what some other guy thinks it's worth or not.
Now I also ask, friend or not, he set the price. I agree with Crackerhead not wanting to name a price for himself, the other guy has to have an idea what it's worth to HIMSELF. To some it's just a pile of scrap iron, and to other's it's a $1,000,000 find of a lifetime.
If I set the asking price on something I'm selling, and then find out later on what it was really worth and I set it way to low, shame on me but I won't linger on it, life does go on and there are deals to be had. To this guy it was sitting in a shed, torn apart and in need of repair.
Flame away, I'm sure I riled up more than one of you.

Today's Featured Article - Show Coverage: Journey to Ankeny - by Cindy Ladage. We left Illinois on the first day of July and headed north and west for Ankeny, Iowa. Minus two kids, we traveled light with only the youngest in tow. As long as a pool was at the end of our destination she was easy to please unlike the other two who have a multitude of requirements to travel with mom and dad. Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
