I just had to share an experience I had not to long ago.

I was driving by a garage sale and an item caught my eye from the street. It was an Oscar Meyer Weinermobile Pedal Car.

I stopped and asked how much it was, and the lady said, "Make me an offer! It is to big and I want it out !"

Well, I have learned that if you are not embarrassed by the offer you make then you did not make a good enough offer so I said, "$5.00 ?"

She happly said yes and I loaded it in the back of my truck and left.

I listed it on ebay and it sold for $280.00 !!!!

That is almost as good as the time I bought an old Jack Daniels bottle for 25 cents and sold it on ebay for $100.00 !!!!
