Here is a point blank question. When a donated car is over 25 years old, what
percentage of the populace even stops for a brain signal that says "Hey, this is over 25, it must be rare, and may be a collectible. Maybe I can get more money for it" Is it:
A. 50% Stop to think
B. 10% Stop to think
C. Nobody stops to think and all old cars should be destroyed as the current regime
of CARB would want Californians to think.
This is what irks me about sellers being downright rude and not even returning calls of real potential buyers, as some of my own club members can attest to. Pure stupidity and blatant disregard at its best.
On a bright side, I got a K-car wagon sold for $5500 from a leaving club member to a new club member. I even told the original owner I thought $5500 was a bit high, but that was what he wanted. So, as an impartial 3rd party, I let the seller and buyer negotiate and that car sold in ONE DAY after I posted the craigslist ad. It now belongs to our potential new member (I say potential cause he never showed up at the car event yesterday) from Santa Barbara. Would make me happy if this dude actually wanted to be a real member and came to Fall Fling with the wagon cause then Eds wagon would still be in the club. Will see what happens.
