Great Expectations?

This guy has pretty high expectations for what he thinks he can buy for $8,000 or am I wrong?

he could find a 2003 base with 99,999 miles on it for that much. buyers expect to pay minimum, sellers expect to sell maximum. the actual sales occurs in the middle, right?

Correct. Given perfect information. Most of the time the info favors the seller. So its closer to the sellers price.

You don't ask, you don't get. He is not specific as to model of car - who knows what might be out there; he could find someone in a distress sell position. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
