When we were fresh off the boat I went to every used car dealer in Hilo. I didn't actually see the gold they thought their junkers were made out of but there was nothing I liked in my price range. I did make a fair offer on a small SUV but while they acknowledged it was a fair price and they'd make money on it, they believed that they could get $500 more from someone else. So I wished them good luck with that and left.
