As I indicated, Jim might have a bit better response if he were to post
the price range he is willing to pay -- he might get some feedback
regarding whether his expectations are realistic.

Well, he's posted the ad a number of times while being completely free to
view the comments and questions associated with the repeated posting. He's
failed in every respect to answer those questions here (in effect helping
himself out by doing so). That suggests to me that he doesn't merit any
additional consideration.
