He also has a Homelite John Deere trimmer with a delivery docket dated 2001. Asked the guy how much it was, wouldn't come up on register, but eventually worked out it was in system for $279!
He said he would ring the boss, who said make an offer. I said since its been sitting in there for 20 years, will need fuel lines at minimum, possibly crank seals, I said I will match what a new homelite goes for - $89 (was feeling generous that day).
Nup, won't take under $129. Said see you in ten years.
After the storekeeper hung up he told me the last guy who asked 5 years ago was told by the boss the lowest price would be $219, and the customer told the boss to GGF'd haha
