I'm very happy with the deal I got, but his immediate acceptance makes me think I should have begun with a lower offer.
I know the feeling! A couple of weeks ago I stopped in a new "gun store" (It's actually an adjunct to another business) and made a $250 offer on a gun tagged at $350.
The owners comment of "Really??" (with eyebrows raised and look of surprise) and immediate acceptance made me think I should have started lower.

For sure, I am going to have to go back and take another look at fairly nice Winchester M94 Rifle in 32-40 (pre-1899 manufacture) he has tagged at $1500. That's a little rich for my blood, but who knows, maybe he will come down to a $1000 (or less)......
