I recently purchased a 96 Honda Accord (102,000 Miles.Just broke in for a Honda).. the lady wanted 4600.00 I offered 3600.00 Cash and she sold me the car...
It's not a question to me of what the car is worth.. It is what do I as a consumer want to pay...
I purchased in 2005 a Avalanche fresh off the trailer ...sticker price 36,500.. I purchased the truck for 24,300... It didn't matter what they were asking..
It's what I wanted to pay..
I think that is true freedom.. If they don't give you the deal... simply thank them and walk away..

Mr. Eastman Kodak failed to mention he was talking about an offer on a used program car. He mentioned a $21,000 sticker so we all assumed he meant a new car. To offer $14,000 for a new car with a sticker of $21,000 is unreasonable and not credible. There are offers that are unreasonable and that would be one.

It's not unreasonable if that is what he wanted to pay... the freedom to say no is in the dealers or person selling hands..

I hope this is a case of you just not thinking this statement through. It does not make sense.
Just because someone wants something does not make it reasonable.

Some of the deals I have got don't make sense either but that's all a part of the treasure hunting process...

I agree, Randy. Alot of it is being at the right place at the right time. People hear of sweetheart deals all the time and say things like, "I never come across a deal like that." ..... Did they ask????
