I've realised that I'm too soft when it comes to people buying stuff from me. The sad stories and droopy eyes are my death blows when it comes to negotiating a price. I've decided to not make things negotiable anymore. Once one knows what a good and fair price is for something, stick to it, and if someone wants it, they can make one offer which I will accept or reject.
I've been dragged down by sympathy to a ridiculous price for Anchen's car and eventually let it go for much less than fair. Anyway, I was a little upset at the start, but am over it now. I've realised that greed is really as bad as we were raised to believe. It makes you unhappy. The thought that you 'could get more' is a horrible thought, and I'll be trying very hard to focus only on getting / paying what is fair and not try to wing another few coins either way for the sake of a "better deal", and hopefully people will do unto me... (...and by the way: Cash is still king!)
I have also received a few quotes from removal companies, but as previously said, that's another story for another time.
