GMMG CAR ON EBAY

[matt murphy]

Dennis,

I tried to buy that car from Mike Carnahan and I offered him $16,500. I know Mike Kratchmer also offered Mike Carnahan about that, but I need a car to turn into a drag car and $21,000 was more than I wanted to spend. I thought I would help Mike's Ebay ad out by making the first offer. None of us here really use Ebay and I was not aware that making an offer like that would leave people to believe something different about the offer. I told my wife what happened a minute ago and she said, "Why did you do that, it looks like you were up to somehting, because you know the seller." I still don't think an offer below his reserve was that wrong. Mike didn't want to see me rip up that car and use it to make a drag car. He said that to someone it might be a GMMG car that they can afford and want. I agreed with him and we put the Ebay ad together so no one was mislead about the history of the car.
