Weasle? :-P

Well, the guy decided to come look @ Henry this afternoon...So he shows up and rings my doorbell, while I am asleep. He said he had called and left a message that he was coming. Okay, no big deal...As long as he doesn't mind that I just woke up. He did his little "inspection" of Henry, etc...But didn't seem too interested in buying him, at least not for what I am asking. To be honest, I don't think I really trust him. He seems a little weaslely...Is that a word? 2 specific things make me doubt his credibility. 1. After he looked Henry over he said "well, I don't have a problem paying someone what they are asking for, if I think it is reasonable. I don't like this 'going back and forth' stuff." Yet one of the things he really wanted to know before he came and looked at the car, was if I was negotiable on the price. To me, those are contradictory statements... 2. I checked my voicemail, while he was out test driving...In it he said that he was on his way, but had to stop for an errand BUT that I needed to call him back, so that he would know whether or not to come out and look at the car. He said he would need to know that I was going to be there and that he could test drive it before he came out because of "his time". Well...He came out anyway...And besides, he was the one who cancelled on me this morning...And apparently wasn't going to tell me until I called to make sure he was coming. So what about my time? Anyway, every time I have talked to him, he seems to talk down to me, give me the impression that I should be doing something for him. Oh yeah, and he started on a list of "major" repairs that Henry was going to need...And then said, "well, I wouldn't expect someone like you to know or understand that". Okay, I know Henry is not a spring chicken, but I have looked into what "major" things were wrong with him. No mechanic ever told me some of the things he was trying to tell me. And one thing he told me that needed work...Well, a mechanic whose name this guy kept "dropping" had already checked that out and said it was fine and that I didn't need to do anything about it. So one of them is not telling the truth. :-P Anyway, this guy didn't even make an offer, but basically told me that if/when I couldn't sell it, I could call him and we could talk about the price. Whatever, I don't want to "deal" with him anyway. As he left he told me to be careful if I drove it, as it really was dangerous to drive and that I should go see this "so & so" mechanic (who already said the brakes were fine and needed no work.) and he would verify what this guy said. Well, 2 thoughts there...If these 2 are in cahoots, I don't want to deal with either one... And if the car is "that dangerous" to drive, why would he want to buy it. I got the distinct impression he was trying to bluff me...Which matches with the impression I had gotten over the phone.

Well, I need to go get ready for Anderson.
