I think this poor chap is being unfairly flamed.Go back and read from the first post on,and see how the tenor of the thread deteriorated.Clearly,he underpriced the car.If the defacto guru tells you your leaving 20k on the table,if it were YOUR car,would you reconsider?. The fact he is a long standing member and offered it on this forum(as opposed to the de riguer snake oil platform)tells me one should not question his ethics so quickly.If there is a benchmark 67,this be it,regardless of color.This is an attempt to play devils advocate,not it's his own biz what he does.

Crawling back into my hole before before arty gets a fix...

yes latebrake i am questioning his ethics i feel it is a cheap move and if he wanted max money he should have spoken with jerry and or done his reasearch prior to listing it for sale, myself and probably most other car guys have left money on the table in a deal or 2 in my opinion true car guys dont pull this that bull $hit just my .2 cents

First of all what is wrong with Mountain Green. Secondly, it is his car and if it is not sold then he can change the pirce at any time. It happen in the real estate market ALL THE TIME. It the market will not bear his new price he will have to come down. Awesome car by the way!

Jon's car....he calls the shots. Better take another look at the history of this car....it's pretty cool. And you won't be finding another like it real soon.

I think someone else called the shot on this sale.

In my opinion I feel it would have been better if nothing had been posted about someone saying that said car was underpriced and the seller simply turned down all offers under his asking price.

Might have cut down on the flaming.

Bottom line it is his car and he can do what he wants with it but I would keep certain reasons from selling off the public forum.

There is nothing wrong with Jon raising his price. Jon bought the car to keep but in the years since he first bought it he has acquired the first ever Z28. I believe he is selling the low mile car to cover the costs of restoring the # 1 Z28. I don't know how many places it was advertised. If it were widely advertised at 100K and there were no buyers then bumping it 25% because of one guys opinion seems like a stretch to me.

[camarojoe]

Bottom line is this... asking price was 100k, there were no takers, there wasn't anyone that said yes, I'll take it for 100, and then had the rug pulled out from them, nor did anyone buy it for 100k and now the seller is asking for 25k more from the buyer. It was simply a single ad placed on a forum. Heck, people here even SAID it was underpriced. Before anyone purchased the car, the seller decided for whatever reason or from whatever source that he should probably not sell the car for 100k, so before anyone bought it for that price he decided 125k was more what he felt the car was worth. Now if no one buys it at 125k and he decides to take 100k again thats his choice, as it is also his choice to up the price to 150k if he so choses and no one has committed to it at 125k. In a nutshell, as long as no deal was made, no one was contracted to buy the car, and no deposit and/or money had changed hands, no one is out anything, and these sour grapes over a car they weren't going to buy anyhow is rediculous. Obviously no one here was buying it at 100 or it would be sold already, so it seems silly to argue that its now 125... jmo.

Someone refresh my memory.

What was the reason for pulling the sale and now offering at a higher price??
