Go over and offer $3k, get the thing, and enjoy it. Looks like a nice car. It is cooling off anyway, you can work on it at your leisure over the next few months, might just be something minimal to fix (but that might cost more at a mech). If not you could probably get your money out of it later. --R Dillon, Meade M CIV SPAWARSYSCEN-ATLANTIC, 53310 wrote: Ugh, I suspect an evapectomy is in this car's future...

Out in the Mojave desert, they paint them all white. Some paint them white with a brush. Some with rattle cans. They do it for a reason!

At the risk of igniting a flame war, I would point out that most of the companies operating platforms in the Gulf shut them down before Rita passed Key West. It takes a couple of days to shut everything down, button it up and get the crews off. Also takes a couple of days to get them back out there and light off the equipment, IF it isn't damaged. As far as the oil market goes, that's pretty much run by a bunch of traders in button down shirts at the NYMEC, and if they get panicked, the price goes up.

yea, true.

Hey, Rich...say hi to Rita for me. I'm packing up the kids and grandkids and heading up to Fort Worth to stay with my sister. I've been through a couple of these, and the view is much better from afar. Besides, I live up in Entergy territory in Montgomery County, and it'll probably take them a month to get power back on. One thing about good ole Houston Looting and Pillage, they get the power back on pretty quick. Save one a them FEMA cards for me. I need a new Louis Vuitton suitcase. Didja hear about the guy who went to Gander Mountain and bought a complete hunting outfit, including shotgun, clothes, boots and even a Texas out of state hunter's license with his card?

I suppose they'd argue they're just charging their replacement cost -- what it'll cost to replace the gas you're buying. There are probably some examples of gouging, but from what I've heard most of the profit isn't made at the retail end of things. The figures I've heard amount to less than 10 cents a gallon over what the wholesaler charges them.

David Brodbeck wrote: I suppose they'd argue they're just charging their replacement cost -- what it'll cost to replace the gas you're buying. Makes sense, if you sell the contents of your storage tanks for $2.60 just so you can pay $2.70 to refill them tomorrow, you'd be better off just closing the store for a day and leaving the tanks full. The fact that you paid $2.50 for what's in the tanks now is irrelevant. OTOH, some merchants are too resistant for selling the $2.70 stuff for $2.60 when the wholesale goes back down to $2.50. So what you see is prices going down 1-2 cents per price change, and up 20 cents all at once.

Re: [MBZ] here we go again
I think you have a good point. People are eager to raise the price and take the profit but reluctant to lower the price if they can still make profit. That's what just about everyone I know does. The grocer, the laborer and the McParts house all do the same thing. When NAPA raises their prices do they sell all the old stock at the old price? Have you wondered about the carpenter who can't make it back to your job until maybe friday? He found a job that pays more than yours does and he's making hay while the sun shines. At the time I had my gas station, prices were just topping $1.00. When I bought gasoline it was a cash transaction. The oil company wanted paid when they delivered. So sometimes my investment made really good money and sometimes I wasn't making the standard .10 per gallon, in order to keep selling.

Probably something new to deal with the new price sensitivity of the consumer. A month ago, it was no big deal. Today, there might be enough comparison shoppers to require the hiring of another attendent to answer the phone if they didn't discourage the calls.
