How to score a deck like a "real" (reel?) tapehead. Some negotiating tactics.
1. If the deck looks and works good, it "might" need service. That demands a discount.
1. If the deck DOESN'T look/work good, then it definitely needs service. That demands a discount.
1. Even if the deck has been serviced, that's a cost of business that should be absorbed by the seller to offer a legitimate item. You don't charge more for selling a car because you gave it oil changes? So why a deck? That demands a discount.
1. If the price is too low and too good to be true, it's probably a scam. That means risk to you. That demands a discount.
1. If the price is not too low, then it's overpriced. And it could still be a scam. That means risk to you. That demands a discount.
1. If the sellers description is long and detailed, he's probably bullshitting you. That means risk to you. That demands a discount.
1. If the sellers description is short and vague, he's hiding or not disclosing something. That's risk to you. That demands a discount.
1. It's obsolete technology. That demands a discount.
1. Look at what it sold for new in year 19xx. Less 20% compound depreciation for every year since. That demands a discount.
1. You are a cool kid. You deserve the good buddy/show a brutha some love discount.
1. Private sellers don't deserve payment. If they have a deck they no longer want or need, then they owe you to give it to you. You're saving an irreplaceable item from destruction. You should be rewarded for your foresight. That demands a discount.
1. Because, discount. Score. And oh yeah. Discount.
