I like that. "As the saying goes, you can ask whatever you want for something, but it's only worth what someone is willing to pay you for it."
And its Corollary: No matter what YOU think it is worth, it is really only worth what his wife is going to let him pay you for it. :) Tom Schuch SE Connecticut 1975 W115 300D and a bunch of BMWs Message: 10 Date: Sun, 19 Dec 2010 16:02:23 -0500 From: E M <pokieba...@gmail.com> To: Mercedes Discussion List <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Subject: Re: [MBZ] What is a '72 280SEL 4.5 worth? Message-ID: <aanlktinu51_rc6vtkckzibxjs_dx7mnchtdymobcp...@mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 If you wanted a project car, and you knew you had to justify the price to your wife, pretty much figure that's the story some guys going to have to pitch to his wife. So, it's not what the car is worth, but what amount do you think some guy's wife would tolerate for a hobby for hubby? What would your wife let you pay for it, if it was a stray looking for a new home?
