Not that generous :?

This was a gentleman who put his car up for sale for £20k and I told him he'd underpriced it significantly and if he puts it up at £25k he would still sell it quickly. I could have bought it myself and flipped it easy but was happy for him to make some more money, as it was his car and he'd owned it a long time. He did as I said, readvertised it at £25k and it sold it immediately at that price.

He offered me something for my help but I told him I hadn't been expecting anything and he had made £5k extra he wasn't expecting also. I suggested he made a significant donation to Macmillan through us to people who are not so fortunate and REALLY need it.

I was hoping he'd donate a significantly higher sum having just made £5k extra for nothing.

But maybe that's just me... :roll:

Hey, he could have just walked away and spent his extra £5k on spun gold pantaloons... your efforts squeezed another decent donation that wasn't there before. Top boy.
