Tough break Doni,
Frankly.......this guy sounds like an As**ole but I shouldn't say that
without knowing him.
Look on the bright side....there might be a better deal down the road....in
fact I know of an Eldo for sale and I will pass on the name to you if I
decide not to get it :-)..and it is still for sale. You deserve it.
Hearing your story reminded me of one of my own.
I was looking for a project bike (and had yet to discover Guzzi) and looked
at a Ducati. The guy was such an ASS that I swore I wouldn't have bought the
bike had HE given ME money for it!!
Anyways...had it not been for that experience I may have never kept looking
and had never wandered into that shop one day.
Funny how things work out :-)
Good luck.....Ian
p.s. e mail me in a week or two to remind me about the Eldo.

| Well, after thinking long and hard and mulling over the various opinions expressed by all the helpful list members, I decided I'd buy the not-running police ambo for $3000. Well, I called the guy and he told me I had my chance and now it's up to $3800 - what he paid for it when it was running and hadn't sat - stored wet, no less - in a shed for two years! I politely told him I couldn't do that and he told me I wasted his time making him show the bike last sunday and he hung up on me! So, I guess it wasn't the bike for me. Thanks for all the advice gang! Going to look at an ambo this weekend.
