I told them that I wanted to buy that bike and asked if there was any chance they could get it and sell it to me. They said yes but wanted $700 more than the first shop. They wouldn't budge. The next day I bought it at the first shop. You act with integrity and then do what you have to do. At least, that's what I tell myself I try to do.
You actually went from a Beemer to a Duck???
How was the transition??
