You would think...but having worked for some real a$$holes over the years, it doesn't always happen. I can recall more than one case where they didn't budge, even one where the dealer insulted the guy. The one that is the most indicative of the mentality I have seen was a few years ago and the guy had picked up a very low mileage HD, decked out in chrome and a bunch of HD crap. He felt that it was worth X amount and stuck to that. Even when a guy walked in within a week with cash and offered him several thousand less than WHAT he thought it was worth. 6 months later, he sold it for the same as the guy had offered him the first week he had it. Of course all the interest he paid until then negated any profit he may have made, if the greed hadn't run so deep.
I might add that everyone of those guys is out of business...for unsound financial reasons,LOL.
