Don't you hate it when...

[Never_Enough]

You are all excited about buying a car & ready to drive a few hours to get it blah blah & the seller hits you with a big negative that should have been in the damn ad?!

Found a well sorted rust free supercharged 97M Miata in VA and was ready to pull the trigger when he tells me the soft top is missing the rear window. The car comes with a hardtop too so not the end of the world, but it is the principle of the matter. Plus he refused to budge off the price.

A used OE top on the frame is about $300 if you can find one. New top with labor from a shop is around $1,000. He wants $6,200 for the car. Not a bad price considering all the parts & labor in the car, but now I'm not so sure I should buy it. If he would have said sure $6k, I probably would have sent him a deposit.

So.. you're going to miss out on what you self described as a good deal, the car you want, and a car in good shape, because of 200 dollars and a missing back window that's irrelevant anyway (since it has a hard top, which isn't cheap).

did you tell the 16 year old owner that you're taking your ball and going home?

Don't put a D-I-Y back-up camera in it.

So he actually asked for a fair price and you're mad he's sticking with the fair price he set?

Lawyer up and sue everyone for punitive damages including his mom.

Not irrelevant at all because I still need to fix it. I can't carry the hardtop around if I want to enjoy it being a convertible.

That price was based on NO other issues. Needing a top is a major issue.

Instead, I slapped him with his mom's dildo.

Pending undercarriage & rocker pics that he is supposed to send me, I will offer him $6k & see what happens.

Agree to $6200, then show up with $6k. "Oh I forgot to tell you this stack is missing $200. How's it feel mother****er!"

Offer him $5750 in 2 weeks if it’s still available.

Then $5500 in a month if it hasn’t sold.

Then $5250, 5000. Never go up.

Art of the deal.

Don't come in here with your logic!

Did you know I ride you? If you're the A-team van, then I'm your daddy huckleberry.

Also, you contradict yourself. What does a back window have to do with it being a convertible and taking the hard top off? If you're taking the HT off, you're probably folding the top down, therefore the lack of window is null and void.

Hmm, I think My PA LTFC is honored in VA, though. So shootout? Let's hope not.

Then I have it outside & it rains. No thanks. Or I go somewhere & have to lock the car up. Oops, can't! I'm not booting the MS6 from the garage for the Miata. When I have a bigger garage again, it won't be an issue, but by then I'd have a new top on it. Still gonna cost me $ so the seller should discount the price accordingly especially since he failed to disclose that in negotiations...
