    You have a good point.

    I don't know how many times I've tried to sell or buy something and people demand that I drive up to Gwinnett to do the deal.

    I drove up there just to show a car, and I didn't even get a call back or anything.

    I'll set up to meet someone halfway, but if they don't care to meet me at least by that much then they probably aren't really interested in buying anyway.

    Question, when was the last time Best Buy or Kroger came to you? If you want to buy something, you go get it. My Cobra sure as hell didnt come to Snellville for me to buy it. I drove my ass over 500 miles to get it and I have no complaints and didnt biitch about it once.

    If someone wants something bad enough, they will figure out a way to get it. Just stand your ground and make them do the leg work.

    I'm a halfway guy usually. It depends on what I am selling or buying. Macon is a bit of a hike for me from Cobb, but I have driven to Tanger to meet up before for some parts.

    half way is always fair...




    i typically don't want anyone meeting me at my house anyway... you never know who you're dealing with...


    i mean with gas prices the way they are, asking someone to buy something from you for a decent price.. yet asking them to drive 2 hours.. they really aren't saving any money...

    like me.. i have the montero... cost like 90 to fill up... spending that much on gas for a 30 dollar part/item/whatever.. isn't really worth it for me....

    but it might be just to meet halfway...

    its fair if the deal goes through. If it doesnt, then you just waisted your time and gas.
