If you have a business card, write on the back their invoice number and the price you're willing to pay. Sometimes, even the sales force needs it written out to make sense. If CW doesn't refuse your offer, initially, you are paying too much. You WANT to walk out the door without a sale completed.
When estimating the price you're willing to pay, total the repair items and subtract them from the total. Hence, you're buying the rig "As is". Contingencies on repair items is only going to cloud the price issue and I wouldn't trust a seller to complete repairs to any level of satisfaction.
Also, if you're seriously shopping, I'd look at more private party sales than dealer inventory. My purpose is not to put profit in the dealers hand. You probably know this from your background but it's worth mentioning.
