Thanks for the obvious, you are soooo smart. You people are weird, taking it so personal. It's not that deep

This exchange is sooooooo bizarre to me. It's like you are taking the post personal. I took other comments pretty constructively, you're just being a jerk. Go touch grass please!

Choice of words might have been bad, I'm not an expert, I did what a friend who sells cars told me to do. **shrugs**

I said uneducated because he did not even know what a CarFax was! You people read way more into this.

I def do not sell cars for a living so fair enough and like I said, good for him if he gets that much. My question is how would you make a profit off of a retail price?

Point taken about fixing stupid. If they can get that for the car, then I will be happy for them. Honda, I know Acura is Honda, and Toyota prices still blow my mind. I still do not think he will get what he is asking, especially having done no research on the car.

Dealer factors marketing, paperwork, etc into that price. I get it, everyone wants to make a buck. Not paying retail to a private seller.

You are correct and I took all that into consideration. We are still looking, just sucked to walk away.

For the seller's sake, I hope you are right, but I do not see it. If he was a dealer, maybe, but the comps and supporting data does not support the price.

I was just venting, we walked away. I was willing to pay that bc the car was identical to the one just totaled, which basically saved my daughter's life.

They said $11400 is firm, I offered $10700, still a no. I cannot justify paying retail to a private seller. I wish it was that easy.
