[QUOTE="TheOLdGuy, post: 198315, member: 878"]If you are selling an item such as a meat cleaver that was recently used as the murder weapon, I would thank you for the dumb offer and leave your store. If the piece to which you are referring caught my eye immediately and I fell in love with it, I might shiver a few times as you tell me the history. I would then hesitate, walk away, turn back, stop halfway. Then offer half the marked price and laugh all the way home if you accepted it.[/QUOTE]
