I was the second person to look the truck I bought used. Seller told me the first guy would have bought it if it was white instead of silver. Dumb reason, he missed out on a really nice truck.
And the first guy had to go look at it to know the difference between white and silver?
LOL
Any of you ever try to "help" the process when you're selling something significant, like a vehicle?
Sounds like what that guy was doing...
You know, if it's popular, and you get a bunch of calls, schedule everyone to come look at it at the same time?
Or text your buddies and have them call you, "very interested", while a potential buyer is looking at it.
He!!, I figured I had a guy who was pretty convinced before he even showed up. But he was already waffling to me about whether the "wife" would be good with it, etc. Dunno if he was playing me or not, but I had one of my buddies show up a little after the real customer, get all excited about the car. Told the "second guy", hey, so n so was here first. Can you give him some space? I'll call you if he doesn't buy it. "Second guy was like "Call me, got cash at home...etc etc"
Car was sold to first guy 5 min after guy #2 "left."
Don't think there was any salesmanship shenanigans here. Seller was dying from cancer. 2004.5 Ram Laramie Dually with 62k miles. Beautiful condition. First looker went as far as seeing how much it would cost to paint it white, too much.
