The only frustration I've ever had was how in the world am I going to move this, and where am I going to put it?
As far as pricing I'm more fatalistic I guess and never dicker about price. Which is weird being the son of a salesman. But I never dicker in a store so I'm just not comfortable with the idea. I HATE when somebody says make me an offer! That just feels like a setup for hard feelings. If it's a good price I grab it, if it's not I move on. I don't go to yard sales or estate sales unless SWMBO says so and when I do see something it's usually something I'm very familiar with the new price and can judge the condition of what I see. I'm continually surprised by used junk for at or above new prices. What's funny is I most often find some screaming deal while she finds nothing.
Last one was last day, hours before close and there was just odds and ends and this set with $100 tag on it. It wasn't till my best half said, " everything is half off, don't you want it?" I woke up. Of course all the other drones in the area started swarming, too late. What was funny was the "company" had no idea...... So I got the whole set for $50. I thought it a good deal.
