found out what "best offer " means - long

Hello, I looked at a one owner low mileage 86S over the weekend and learned something about used car buying. On Saturday I was able to see the car and inspect it but not drive it. Very clean in and out and obviously well taken care of so , I made plans to drive it the next day but when I arrived at the appointed time someone else had the car out. When they returned they said they would take it. I protested since I had initially looked at the car and was there at the agreed on time. Any way I drove it and it was really nice. It needed nothing. I have two 900's now and am not a bad judge of these cars. I went back and said I wanted it and the owner said fine but the other people offered him $400 more than he was asking. The ad said $1100 or best offer. A great buy at $1100 and a good buy at $1500 but I was so mad at the way things worked out I told him to forget it. I always assumed that "best offer" meant the best offer if the asking price was not met, but not in this case. We live and learn. Bruce
