And we love having you, Rosie! Remember, sometimes the road is not "the end" it's a "bend". I have to remember that one constantly. And I mean constantly!!!
Duchess! Hello, hello!!!
Good to see you
It's nice to be back where everything works and everything is clean (including government agencies, meaning, corruption-free). I do miss Bali, though - village life, the B&B, the people, the produce...the whole spirit of the place over-rated though it is.
Still having some adjustment problems after being away for two years. It does help to have my twins back for Easter break and the husband on a schedule that has him home a lot and fabulous friends so I think I'm going to be just fine. By the end of this month. Or year. Decade, maybe. No, seriously, I'm starting to feel much better.
Love being back on AW!!!
Well a guy came and looked at mine and offered me $700, he said that that was probably all it was worth on the blue book value. I haven't looked that up yet, but a little over a yr ago I paid over $2500 for it, so I think a $1000 is reasonable. I told him no.
Just remember to use either the Blue Book or Edmunds as a general guide.
Dealers actually use the Black Book if they use anything at all.
If you paid $2,500 for it, then surely it would not have depreciated by $1,500 over a year?? Why not try asking for $1,500 and be open to slight negotiations, maybe down to $1,300?
I know cars can be expensive in the US but based purely on mathematics and sheer fairness, surely you could ask for a bit more that $1,000?
I think you should just forget what the guy said about $700. People will say anything if they get the faintest whiff of distress or desperation. Good on you for refusing such an insulting offer.
