I got what I wanted right then, in time to go to a concert that night, and I still feel it was worth every penny. Maybe it was over market, but still worth it in terms of value. Additionally, this dealer has been making it up to me in many ways since that time by doing things with my car (experimentally) and they have also been my client so there is a relationship involved.
