I don't mind paying the right price for hardware, but even I would baulk at $4000!
I would be too scared to even plug the thing in when it got home, let alone use it!
(Plus it would cost me more than just cash, as I imagine my better half would walk away with something more sensitive than my wallet if I brought this home)
:eek:

With the windfall he had finding this stuff, I think he's had quite enough breaks already  :lol:

Good luck to him though, I'm not sure I could have brought myself to sell it!

:admonish: <-- me reading the underlined part above

With all due respect, you Americans don't know the first thing about gas prices around the world. Whereas you pay ~$3 for a gallon of regular gas, here in Europe we pay ~1-1.5 euro per liter - for your understanding that's $5,5-8,3 per gallon!

Oh, and another thing, there's no such thing as regular gasoline where I live - there's premium and even-more-premium (which my car's addicted to) which is obviously is even-more-expensive.

Please, don't get me wrong, I'm not attacking you. I just get seriously nervous when someone who earns 2.8 times more (at an average) pays half the price and still grumbles they're too high... :madashell:

[off topic]Try UK Prices then!
We haven't seen the right side of a pound a litre for some time and probably never will again![/off topic]

It was nice to see the Miggy went to a good home though.
Well done on negotiating a better deal fella.
