This time, I got more of the sense the guy just had a lot of contacts. Not a hint that anyone was offering more than he was asking after they found out it was "sold" already (like also happened previous time) & nobody completely messing with it and claiming it could be very, very valuable if it was the right one, yada, yada, yada.
Glad they were not successful messing up your WoodDale score. Did you wind up having to pay more, or the original price?
With my previous excursion into the same area, someone had allegedly offered the guy maybe double what he had asked. The guy was clearly going to sell it for his asking price, which I had previously agreed to. I just laughed & said a lot of people claim a lot of things over the phone, but when those types actually show, they often seem to beat you back down on the price. I then mentioned that since he was fair with me & he might have been able to get more, I thought it was fair for me to pay a bit more (but not what he'd been offered over the phone). I clearly didn't have to do it, but I thought it would be nice.
