I finally received a response to my offer on the Aquarius Data
Recorders. For those who don't remember, they have 3 pallets
worth with 240 on each pallet. At first they accepted my offer on
one pallet's worth but now they say they can't do it unless I buy
two pallets of them. Somehow I feel it would be hard enough for
me to move 240 of them much less 480. I'll keep you up to date on
the deal.

David, they're playing with you. They're testing how eager you are. Tell
them one pallet or no deal. Or tell them you'll take both pallets but for
the same offer you initially threw at them. If they balk then faq them.
It'd be better to walk on this deal than to have to worry about 480 stupid
data recorders, not to mention the money you will have sunk and lost on
it.
If you want, I can play dupe and start negotiating with them independent
from your negotiations. I'll throw a low-ball
offer at them to make your
offer seem reasonable.
