My point was, $25,000 for an ordinary airplane with ordinary radios is a rip off. For $25,000 there needs to be something spectacular - which there isn't. The engine is mid time and has a new-ish top overhaul.

Now - the seller is willing to negotiate price - excellent. Talk him down into the range that this airplane is worth (no more than $20,000!) I paid $19,000 for a plane with good radios, 287 hours on the engine (AND cylinders), a nice interior and excellent paint.

Perhaps the seller is trying to recoup that $5,000 he spent on the paint job with such a high asking price - never EVER put money into an airplane expecting to get the exact value of the mods added onto the airplane's value. Doesn't work that way.
