i would have gave in hahaha

but glad you didnt hun x

we were in a charity shop today and some bloke, was trying to haggle from £10 to £4, lol the shop assistant never had none of it, and i sd to her how cheeky its a bleeding charity shop! she said i know they do it all the time,

you did exactly what I would have done. bleedin cheek after you specifically said no haggling!
xxxx

My Dad is a world class haggler Sue.......and he was appalled that I wouldn't give in !!! I, on the other hand, do not haggle so feel justified in standing my ground !!! But I do agree.......no harm in giving it a go......as long as you can recognise when the person you're trying to beat down isn't playing LOLOL

I owe you a few birthday cards by the sounds of it Hayley !!! LOL xx

Always worth a try:-))

Sue xx

I have been 33 for 18mths love **shocked **

He was clearly just trying to call my bluff Ann......but after the few months I've had I can't be doing with it .....aw well....he's the loser ultimately because someone with mechanial know how will make a pretty penny out of it !!

I STILL would've done that at 35 Hayley........

*whispers* how come you've gained 6 years on your age in a year?* LOLOLOL

I think you were right, you had said before no haggling so why did he haggle.

I am 35 this year love ;)

Well I would have done the same when I was 29 Hayley !!! *coughs* lololol xx

Yeah Muffy it must be coz yur nearly 40 me being young and silly I'd give him the car and an extra £25.00... :)))

Less of the old :0)

youre just a mean old bag,,,,,,,,,,:}}}}}

if you you were prepared to take less you'd have put ONO,,,,,,stupid man,,,,,,,,,:}

I think you were right but I might have caved:)

Cambelt went Mac.

Sad thing is.......it was only done about a year and a half ago and would probably have still been under guarantee.......but the garage that did the work went bust in the summer !! xx

Ha ha ha ha ha

He just phoned back and said I'll be there tomorrow to get the car.......

We said......you're too late we have someone coming at 12 to collect it......for the full asking price (we have)

LOLOLOL I LOVE it when that happens ......aren't I cruel !!! *evil cackle*

But I'm unrepentant !!!

OH's cars engine went BANG last Thurs (yep needed that like a hole in the head didn't we !!)

Anywaaaaaay it's uneconomical to repair...being as it's not the main family car...... iso we put it on ebay as a spare or repair job......we know what the going rate for them is and priced it reasonably compared to other cars on there.

Bloke phoned this afternoon and said he was travelling 100 miles to see the car........we stressed......NO HAGGLING.....the price we put was the price we were prepared to accept and not a penny less.

Anyway......he was supposed to turn up tonight at 8.......at half seven he phoned...will we take £25 less.

Er.......no.

He said.........well money is tight......and it IS ony £25...er...tell us about it....our damn car just blew up and we have to buy a working one out of what we get for the wreck.....every penny counts here too and if it's ONLY £25 YOU pay it !!!

In the end after trying his luck for about half hour he finally got the message and said *Well i'm not buying it then* we said.......fine don't then lol.

Got 3 other people fighting over it now but when I told my Dad about it he said I was being a tight a**e.LOLOLOL

Like I care. It's dog eat dog out there !!! There was a time when I would've done it so as not to offend. Those days are long gone !!! I think this turning 40 malarky is beginning to kick in LOL xx
