Paul,

I am not sure if you statement about Harry is correct, but I would think
most people would be hesitant to buy a boat from someone who says "Guess my
price"? Harry is not only asking for JohnH to make an offer, but even after
JohnH makes his offer, Harry will not make a counter offer, he will just
play the "Cold, Colder, getting Warmer" game. I have to be honest, I have
never heard of anyone selling anything with a "Standing Room Only" attitude,
refusing to provide details of the product being sold, and refusing to
provide an asking price or a even providing a counter offer.

Very strange indeed.

It does highlight one of the disadvantages of buying a used boat. You have
to contend with amateurs selling a boat who are too emotionally attached or
who make unreasonable demands to the boat to facilitate the sale.

Worse, Krause is a proven liar with little or no respect for others.
Buying a boat from him represents considerable known risks.

Skip,

I've noticed that this news group has cleaned up an attitude at least
since Christmas, and has gotten back to boating issues (for the most
part) . Actually, I got caught into the political attitude and decided
even to myself that enough is enough. so I refrained from making
political and slamming posts. l"ve seen it's alot calmer in here and
its refreshing.

I realize I'm a nobody, and you can do what ever you want, I'm just
asking:


Please don't feed the bears.....

Skipper is just one of the sour old men who visit here from time to time

bluewater boater wannabe, but he's trapped in Derby, Kansas. It shows.
