Re: 1977 Sceptre, New York
 

You're welcome.....I bid it up another $550 for you today. I did not want to see it go for the $4150 price it was stuck on this morning. Just too far away for me to buy. Good luck.

Re: 1977 Sceptre, New York
 

It went for $4700. good deal for someone.

Re: 1977 Sceptre, New York
 

looks like you might have done more than just bid it up...looks like you might have bought it! 4150+550= 4700?

And I thought I was a Scot.

Naw....the buyer's bid was there before mine went in, that was pretty much my limit. I was going to go to $5000 but after thinking about the cost of getting it to Florida and buying "sight unseen" I changed my mind.

Re: 1977 Sceptre, New York
 

Yes, it is a good deal for someone. I hope the boat is well cared for and I will direct the new owner here as I'm sure he could benefit from the resource.

Re: 1977 Sceptre, New York
 

Man, did he get a deal or what? I toyed with buying it just for the trailer and part out what I didn't want. That radar arch/bimini looked SWEET!

Re: 1977 Sceptre, New York
 

Ironically, the price that the boat and trailer sold for is almost exactly what I paid for the arch, bimini, and outrigger package before tax. I've noticed that when I've bought things for my boat, I sometimes have a internal conversation, however brief, about getting it back someday when the boat is sold. Selling a boat in this market has been an exercise in confirming once again how useless my internal conversations are.

: )

Yeah, I find myself talking to my other self about boat economics more often than I like. Sometimes, when really alert, I catch myself and excuse myself from such useless and pointless banter :D :D :D

Hopefully someone here on csc got the lucky score on your ol' RedEye. Maybe John123 saved it for his son ... be a pretty sight seeing 2 kick-ass red Tsceptres going bendo on salmon, striper or tuna somewhere.

Good luck with your private conversations and your next boat :cool:

Not to worry.......in my case when I'm done talking to myself the wife will take over and bust my chops. I try not to stay too alert.
