I agree and think you've made a wise choice.

My guess is you live in an area where there aren't a lot of used
ones for sale. You might have to take a look in some nearby area or
maybe even look at Ebay. If you can find 3 or 4 in a large city
such as Los Angeles it might be cheaper for you to fly there, pick
out a good one and drive it home.

that sounds like the right thing to do. who knows, this seller may come
back looking for you with a new price...
for a reality check, have a look at carmax.com. they are a national used
car dealer that has a no haggle price and 30 day warranty. remember, this
is a dealer so expect them to ask the high dealer price... but that should
get you thinking as to what is the right price to pay. a private party sale
price should be some place between what the dealer would pay for a car and
what a dealer would sell a car for.

Why don't you make a reasonable offer and leave him with that and your
telephone number. Down the road they may discover that no one is
willing to pay their price.
