Tell me about it man, I know how you feel.

I once seen a car advertised for £2250, 2 Week later he knocked the price down to £1650, I thought, bargain lets give him a ring.

Anyway i rang the guy, Just over the phone i got him down to £1300 cash price.
Next day travelled 400 miles, the car was good, but not excellent as described. Guess what?, I paid him £850 and drove back 400 miles.
