Maybe I am missing the point here..  :huh:

But if you continue down the route of man A + man B, then your car will sell for £1000! So what's it worth???


£1000...... BINGO!!!!


Its certainly not rocket science :rolleyes:


maybe you should just agree to disagree with everyone Kev  :grin:

honestly f**k f**king f**k me.

Whats the Phrase... 'Your car is only worth what someone is willing to pay'

f**kin read that and f**kin keep reading it.

Regardless if you accept £1k, if man B is willing to pay £1100 then thats what its worth, cause that what he was willing to pay. Or we now changing that whole phrase to 'Your car is only worth what you accept for it' ?

Just phoned up Audi..... Told em I wanted to buy an R8. They said sure come down and see us. Told em I'm only willing to pay £5000, and said its only worth what I'm willing to pay. How come they hung up on me ?  :rolleyes:

But the one I wanted to buy is only worth £5000. Infact, I've now decided its only worth a tenner as thats all I'm willing to pay. Now can you see how f**kin stupid that saying is ?

Just because you're only willing to pay £5000 or a tenner for it doesn't mean that someone won't come along and pay the list price - Audi know this (they're actually pretty good at making a pretty profit from their motor cars).

So, in your case, let's call VWKev Man A.. who is willing to pay £10, but then Man B comes along and offers £175,000 - and his missus gives him the nod, so he buys it.

Audi know that they'll get a better offer so they chinned you off and waited for Mr B, who now has a nice R8.

You comfirmed in your last post my point anyway. Regardless of what someone is willing to pay, there is someone else that will come along and pay the asking price. So a car is confirmed not to be only worth what someone is willing to pay.

Not exactly, because if Man B didn't come along eventually Audi would have to drop their list price until they found someone willing to pay it.
