First, a foundation of words needs to be built. What did those two little stories have to do with anything? WeРІР‚в„ўll get to that.

It is always interesting to meet people who are worse at interpersonal relationships than I am. I cannot imagine she thought her negotiation technique was going to be effective. But we could have stopped after our first pass through offer and rejection, as no deal was possible after that point. Her offer stayed at a dollar throughout, leavened with sneers and insults.

I started with РІР‚СљnoРІР‚Сњ and worked my way up to using them for kindling before I would sell her one at full cover price. In the reality and emotion of the moment, it was insulting. In the cold logic of hindsight, it was just an offer I could freely reject. A dollar turned out to be exactly the right price to start a fight. And, as always, quantity discounts are available.Р”Р„ woman, who rolled up in an expensive car, offered me a dollar for all of the books, and then started gathering them up like it was a done deal. Cheap enough that anybody with an interest would pick them up, and it wouldnРІР‚в„ўt kill me if I decided to give a couple away to any kid who looked like they wanted to read one. At one garage sale I had done a big purge and had 40+ paperbacks lined up, with the asking price was 25 cents each.

Just the process of finding stuff to sell helps us keep the house clear of clutter, so that our home, with the exception of my office and my daughterРІР‚в„ўs room, feels clean, open, and spacious.

Their offer was so insultingly low that it made it completely unlikely to be able to negotiate any deal at all. But there was no possibility that we were going to come to an arrangement with the person who made that first offer. We were not, and actually sold the house for what we were asking a couple weeks later. Somebody sensed, as we all were beginning to at that point, that the bubble was going to burst soon, and wanted to know if we were desperate. We listed our house at the market price for our neighborhood, and the first day on the market we got an offer for roughly 60% of what we were asking. A few years back, at the height of the housing boom, we decided to move.
