Negotiation - how much to offer?

[FalmouthGuy]

Hi All,

I found a different Grady in FL and met the seller when I was there last week. Very nice boat, well taken care of with service records etc. I asked if there was wiggle room on the price and he said of course. So, I offered 5% less than asking and he accepted. I think we both got a fair deal. It has been an extremely pleasant experience and I'm super pleased about the boat and about buying from a great guy who really loves his boat. I'm having a survey done Friday and after that I'm a Grady owner! I'm vey excited.

Thanks for your advice!

I know this was a long time ago, but I was searching for something and it came up so I read the thread and was curious how the boat is going or went? I assume maybe you’re in something different. I might get a 225 Freedom some time in the future and am curious. I’m on Cape Cod as well, Falmouth area.
