I'm going to see what they will do and I'm thinking if they can do 12.5k off the lot, I'll be making room in the garage for another one. Might be tricky though because I now know after buying the first one in SC, the taxes, title, and tabs can screw you over something fierce when you buy one from out of state. DPS dinged me $1500 just for plates and then I had taxes too because SC didn't collect enough.

Wish me luck!

 

Actually, I didn't tell the whole story. Our other item on the board meeting agenda is linked below

John Deere 350 Crawler Loader Dozer Backhoe NO RESERVE! - eBay (item 160403413797 end time Feb-20-10 19:00:35 PST)

I wanted the SRT
BUt truth be told....
I reeeeeally neeeeed the crawler backhoe.

I know we are in the packaging business but you never know????

Rudy, the Ebay aution was no reserve at $11,990. First bid would have owned it!
I'll bet you could have it for the $11,990.

If they talk about other interested parties, tell them the guy in St Louis and the guy from Plano Texas were asking about it for you.

The car was on Ebay twice.
1st for $16K and then for $11.990K
They got no bids.

You are in the seat man.

Good luck Rudy. I wish I was in position to jump on it, but I am going to try to outbid Franc on that sweet backhoe! LOL

Rudy, if you get it, it will be the steal of the year.

 

I most certainly will do that. Thanks for the heads up.

I'm gonna get that tonka toy for ME.

If you really want it, I might consider driving a black vert. But only 'cause it has really cool slasher stripes.

Lol!
Gonna remember that one!

Rudy, I'll try to call the dealer tomorrow and offer him $11K out the door and see what he sez. That way when you call and offer $12?K he might take it.

 

Offer him 10k because I'm gonna shoot for 11k and say that I have to make up the difference in taxes and title back here. LOL

 

Ok 10 it is.
But if he sez ok I'm buying it!

I'll call ya tomorrow morning.

 

Rudy,

Just thought I'd give you a vote of confidence in case you needed it. I know of the dealer that is selling this. There are very reputable and have dealership ALL over Texas. I can't speak for this specific dealership, but the Randall Reed group is a stand up company. I've meet Randall Reed on several occasions in Houston, real upright guy.

Good to know. I've seen their ebays listing before. This adds a level of comfort, if I ever bite.


thanks

WTF do you neeeeed that for? So you can bury your packaging mistakes?

 

Arg! Because he be lookin' for his buried treasure!

 

Well I spoke with the dealer (sales guy in his car on the way to work) and they aren't gonna budge. I'm gonna talk with the bank and try to figure out EXACTLY what DPS is gonna ding me when I bring it back home. $13k was kinda my number and I have to stay fast to it as I'm moving late in the spring and can't spread myself out too thin.

Let you know what the bank and DPS says this afternoon.

Thanks for

 

Well everyone, another SRT6 is just not in my future right now. I spent the better part of the morning trying to figure out a way I could justify everything but between TTL, the bank, and the rise in insurance with another car on the policy, I could buy it but I couldn't really afford it.

Thanks for everyone rootin' for me though! We'll find another one, just have to be patient.

 

I heard that he just really enjoys hearing to pop/crunch sound when he rolls over red XFires with one.

 

We, at Excalibur Packaging, don't make mistakes. Our stuff is perfect.

Actually, I want it so I can bury a school bus full of ammunition on my far right, Christian Fundementalist, compound in Ava Mo.

That's why I need the back hoe. The red ones are always behind me.

Oh, you must be referring to TMS where Stogey had lapped you.


Hey, give these guys at Randall Reed some time. With all the attention the car got yesterday I bet they were feeling pretty confident about their price. I bet we'll be seeing it back on Ebay next week.
