I agree. If the seller doesn't make an opening offer he has no right to be
insulted by the opening offer he receives. If he has a minimum price he
should say so. If he wants to negotiate he should counter. >>
I agree completely.
Furthermore ....
As much as I would like to see the value of our cars increase, I think
its completely unrealistic for anyone to expect to recover the cost of
a first class restoration. I hope George gets whatever he wants for his
car, and I'd love to see TR6s sell for $20k+ every day, but right now
restoration costs are just way ahead of market value and anyone who
thinks otherwise should ...well....people with good economic sense
probably just aren't in this hobby.

73 TR6 - spending way more than I expect it will ever be worth
2 69 GT6+s, 70 GT6+ - if they weren't undervalued i wouldn't have been
able to acquire them
