business proposition

Post by bloke »

I saw a tuba that I really like, but really don't want to shell out the cash for it, right now.

If one of you buys it for me - and lets me keep it for just one year, I'll agree to sell it back to you for $100 less than you originally paid.

Uh, Joe, have you been sipping a little too much "beverage" out of that jug we all know you keep high on the shelf? Ha.

Let me see if I've got this straight...

I buy it, you use it for a year, then you'll sell it to me for my original buying price minus $100?

Sign me up. At least then it will have provenance, played by a famous Bloke when I try to sell it at twice my original buying price. :popcorn:
