Default Old School Gloat

Love those negotiating skills!

While roaming Phoenix Park and Swap last year I stumbled upon some old
Wilton 9 inch vises salvaged from a HS woodshop nasty looking (lots of
rust and glue) but in fine working order. Marked 30.00 per. There were
5. Never being afraid to ask, I say would you take 100.00 for all
five. He says 125.00. I say all I have is 100.00. He says buy 4. I say
thanks anyway and start to walk away. He says sold.
I keep two and give the other 3 away for presents.

I think this is a small gloat, and at the very least great presents.
