Might do, that's £600 in todays money so just about what they are worth.
Yep, interesting point although that of course was the price for a new one rather than one that is near on 40 years old!
Loose has a different meaning to lose!
Some things I haggle, others not so it really depends. For example, I paid what the seller was asking for my A3s; I wanted them, his price was more than reasonable, he wasn't planning on selling in the first place and on top of all that he was fantastic to buy from. A really lovely genuine guy. I wish all transactions could be like that.FWIW I don’t haggle. I’m either interested or not at the asking price. I don’t make contact if the price is more than the thing is worth to me. I also use an auction sniper, leave bids at the local auction etc, just what its worth to me, if it goes for more it is no loss. I just don’t enjoy any ‘negotiation’ phase at all either buying or selling.

Ditto, absolutely spot on. It just saves a load of hassle and potential ill feeling.
I have experienced reverse haggling on PFM, where I've offered something for an unpriced item and the seller has said Ah no, that's too much, and I've said No you're grand etc.FWIW I don’t haggle.

You never thought of getting a job in sales then?I ad dis geezer come around once, look at me Naims. Beforehand on the blower I was like 'there's no movement on price', and he was like 'ok'. Then he comes around we have long acoustilogical discussion about the amps, and he's like 'right, let's talk price', and I'm like 'HELLO, get the **** out of my flat!'. That was it, TWAT.
There are at least 3 examples in this thread of people who are prepared or not prepared to "loose" money.Not sure why this came up, but they're different parts of speech as well. One's an adjective and t'other's a verb.
You must be slipping, if you hadn't noticed them
