As has been said by the majority here, my "sold" price varies from buyer to buyer depending on their attitude. If they act like they're doing me a favor even being here to check out my junk, the price goes up. If I sense they're a jockey, the price goes up. If they seem like a good person and are gonna use the item, the price goes down.

I HATE the question "What's your bottom dollar?" If someone asks me that, I mentally raise my bottom dollar and say "You make me an offer and I'll tell you if we're done talking."

I responded to an ad from a guy looking for an 82 pull type IH combine a couple years back. I called him up and told him I had one that had been sitting outside a couple years. He said "It's shot, probably not worth looking at. How much you want?"

I said "You said it's shot. Why would you want it? I'll haul it to the scrapyard." and hung up. That guy called me about every three days for two weeks trying to get it out of me. I used it on a little wheat the next year. It still sits where it sat when I first called him.
