The guy that sold me my Subaru told me he makes $60,000 a year which is good on the surface but he works every Saturday and on weekdays is usually there till 8 or 9pm. Even later if he's making a sale..he was a persistent mofo. I bought my car like two months after I first stopped in and got pricing and he prob called me 10-12 times in that time frame. I wish I could be that persistent with my customers who shop around. My least favorite are people who want to pickout their own tombstone ahead of time but don't want to actually order it. They'll say just set up a file and when I die in 5-20 years my kid will come in and buy it. Of course pricing will change and a lot of times the kid thinks it's already been paid for or end up cheaping out. I also have people who buy like a $8200 tombstone and then when I'm writing it up they say I really wanted this to be under 8,000. At that point it's not about whether they can afford it or not they are just trying to get a few bucks off. I had a recent customer who after I wrote up the order and took their deposit they continued to shop around and they found a better price at a competitor and wanted us to match or beat that price. I actually did match it but that shit is rare. Sort of like Best Buy does. Fucking people trying to take money out of my pocket. The serious hagglers usually are the ones with a lot of money. I like poking up customers addresses on Zillow. The people with $500,000 and million dollar houses get the best deals. The ones who live in $150,000 houses and apartments 99.5% just pay the price I give them straight from the price book. If I charges 10% more they would pay it as well. Some would say I'm leaving money on the table but I don't wanna gouge people when we already have a solid markup

What argument do you have with your mom? Is she like my third favorite Hall and Oates song,"Out of Touch" I feel like I should smokeup first before I read ski freaks post. An artist who works for us wastes the salespersons time all the time. He has poor credit and dreams of having a Ford Escape. He even talked about how he could do a low mileage lease for like $250 a month which seems like that would require a high down payment like 3 or 4 grand. He goes in and test drives it every few months, wastes the dealers time then he bitched that his payments would be $50 a month higher than the quoted special cause his credit is bad so keeps driving his 2003 jeep Cherokee that he spends a couple thousand a year on maintainance. When I leased my current Subaru he has a zillion questions and was hella jealous.

What's wrong with Ned? Where did you live in Colorado?

I think our society is good. Recently I bought something with a $10 bill that was $8something and I got $11something in change and the devil in me thought for a split second about keeping it but I gave the extra $10 back. Good karma to me is worth more than $10. In my broker days prob would have kept the $10.

Once or twice a week I give money to random homeless or crackheads who ask for it. Usually just $5 bills but I had just gone to ATM so only had $20s. I know I could have bought a round of shots with that or a new balaclava but I was in a generous mood. I gave free SFRB to two friends recently as well. Reminds me of this 50 cent song..Window Shopper

I was gonna suggest that TP4 should take a customer service seminar. I don't like his attitude.

Two years ago I gave a homeless guy a $20 for Harambe...and last night I put a Deadhead sticker on Cadillac for VTMark

Bahahahahaha anyway I just got Starbucks and I tipped a dollar on my $4 iced coffee with espresso added...not because service was good or because 17 year old cashier was hot I did it for Harambe. I feel like I'm gonna go the distance today..I'm definitely going for speed.

TP4 learn to get along with him because when we have our condo at Blue you two are gonna be sharing a sectional sofa.

Most people don't want to buy a car from an individual. Car could be a lemon and you typically don't get any warranty unless there is a balance of an old warrenty left. In selling a car I'd rather take a couple thousand less on the dealer trade in than dealer with the public in a private sale but everybody has their different preferences. My uncle who is very wealthy and has a $250,000 plane refuses to buy new cars so he buys one or two year old cars that were normally like $50,000 new for like $40,000 from the dealership. Seriously you're at work all the time and the other guy got the sale..SMHerman. Wish I had some popcorn. Quoted for Truth!!!!

I like selling tombstones cause the majority of people are uneducated on what our costs are so I can charge a pretty high markup. We get some people who haggle and shop around but they are the majority. Most buy through the funeral director who sell for us because they need to make up for lost revenue due to a falling death rate and falling cremation rate. Ski2Live are there any bonuses in the industry you work in??

I'm jealous Barb.

Don't other dealers do the same thing for you. I remember you got some sales while you were in Europe.

TP4 how much would a loaded up Taurus with that kind of mileage normally go for.

I might go also Artsfest in Cedar Beach that weekend in Allentown. https://player.vimeo.com/video/181618642

Low 40s for the lows Saturday and Sunday nights...another ten degrees colder and I'll be advising people to bring in their tropical plants. All the girls who were wearing coochie cutters Wednesday night are gonna be back to black north face jackets and the apple bottom jeans with the boots with the furs...Uggs Crazy neighbor was wearing some sort of blanket this morning while I was outside with an elderly family getting bit by gnats bugs like extreme type skiers I guess.

No electricity required to get there if you walk. They sell high end backpack called ,douchebags I want one.

YOLO you only live once do what you like fuck if I want chicken McNuggets and a sausage biscuit for lunch I can get both at the same damn time wow we are living in a great time. It was almost 80 degrees in early March and I skied in a polo shirt.

Yeah and what about people who live in 5,000 square foot homes that they have to heat that's also a waste of energy but those big houses provide jobs to people who build and maintain them. I try not to question things like this and just accept it. Also we could all carpool but I don't like carpooling fuck me and atomic Jeff used to take seperate cars to drive to belleayre.

I also think it looks cool.

TP4 like the one guy I went to high school with. He is a Temple university graduate but discovered if he got diagnosed with a mental illness he gets food stamps, social security every month and almost free housing and electric. He goes to multiple food banks and sells the items he doesn't want online. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=JDug3QkffXg

TP4 is poor wow just wow real poor people would probably disagree with that.

$50 is cheap for a helicopter ride.

It has for every trail blue has ever opened going back probably to upper sidewinder for the 90-91 season and realize that last season revenue was likely off by 40% and I doubt they even broke even. If last season was a good season there would be a much better chance of additional capital expenditure.

That's cause Blue is he best!!!!!
