Wait, you listed it for a number you thought was high, then got offered full ask by serious buyers, and you continue to own this car? That's a douchebag move.

Unfortunately it happens all the time. I recently had a guy who listed his truck for $29k, went to see it and even though it needed the rear quarters fixed and had a hail claim I told him I could pay him $32k. He admitted that was a lot more than the low 20s he was expecting to get for it last fall and still decided not to sell it because “I have to think about it”. Wasted a lot of my time with useless banter and back and forth.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Happens a lot, in basically any market too. Houses, businesses, household items, gym equipment, you name it...This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
While this is true, if it was me I'd hang onto the car. Pocketing an extra $5k/10k/30k is absolutely more important than some guys I don't know thinking I'm an asshole.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Besides, the people that know me think I'm an asshole, I care even less what people who don't know me think.
Guess that's true too. I've had vehicle sell quick and wondered if I left money on the table, but it's never been 5-10K, I'm certain of that.

I mean. If you are in a bidding war for a house, do you go with the lowest offer just because it’s first?
Or do you take the higher offer that came in while you were going back and forth with the first guy?
Getting an offer for asking immediately screams it was priced too low to me, that’s valuable information to consider as seller. Shit isn’t sold until money changes hands.

Exactly. It’s called price discovery. Tough to know how to price a limited production exotic where there are fewer than 5 for sale in North America. In a market that you can’t take a new delivery until 2023.. I was too low, I’ll mark it up $10-15k in May and probably laugh to the bank.

This is why I'm not buying a sports car for another year
Seems like it could be worse in a year. I would of saved $60-$90k buying an Aventador 12 months ago Vs. now.
Going to be interesting to watch unfold anyways.

Maybe. I'm not that desperate for a car right now...doubt I will be in a year either. I'm allergic to bubbles.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

I want to buy another car but don’t have the balls to gamble on the current market and associated costs with owning yet another car.

exotic cars (unless they are truly collectible) have such a small market, that this is just pent up demand. Once everyone has their new car, it will come back down to earth.
No. That would be Doug Demuro or thestraightpipes guys that I am a little jelly of. Not that douche canoe.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
