Wow, nice move, ralexander! Congrats on this purchase. 3 years ago i was searching heavily for a guitar, and if i had known Stephens guitars back then, this offer would also be high on my list. But nowadays i already have a good guitar, plus no money lol... quote:
ORIGINAL: dformell Some of the members of this forum make it really hard to be polite. So far I've been asked my age, told that my question wasn't very smart and how dare I ask such a question as if it were blasphemy. It's possible to disagree with someone without insulting them. At the risk of being redundant; In the business world people are going to shop for the best deal, they are going to ask tough questions and if a seller wants to be successful he/she better be ready to answer them. At this point the only thing left to say to people that are offended is; being asked tough questions is one of the realities of the business world, grow up and get over it. Sorry but youre the only one taking things personally. A buyer always makes his decision according to HIS conditions. The seller can not answer this question, let alone reason every dollar of his price or even the price of OTHER luthiers. Two identical guitars made by the same luthier even can have different prices. In the business world there is for sure alot of talking, whether it is always smart talking or whether it reflects reality is a different question. Im talking about unrealistic advertisements for example. Part of growing up should be dividing that business BS from, dare i say, the truth. The form of your question was indeed polite, but the problem with it was the content. Obviously you knew what you were writing (on a public forum btw) is not cmmonly accepted as negotiation in the guitar world, hence you apologized beforehand. Id like to know what business you were talking about. Maybe its not comparable to guitars.
