Set aside emotions. He wants bike. You want bike valuation (attorney recommendation).
E-mail: "Kelly's Blue Book says bike Harley H1 from year 1999 with 30,000miles in GOOD condition is worth $4,500 (private seller value). Photos show scratches and corrosion by the battery so I think it's worse than VERY GOOD, but there are no prior accidents and no dents so it's better than ACCEPTABLE condition."
Text: I e-mailed you my valuation of the bike--$4,500. Do you agree? If you do, say yes, and I can put the bike outside either at 7-10am or 5-9pm tomorrow.
It's a business transaction.
I don't know what's on the bike... ie... upgrades and there are some... I don't even know mileage. It would be better if he would start that and I could look at it to agree.
Same issue with the boat... I don't know what his boat is... UGH.
I only know the purchase price.
I also don't want him baulking again that getting evaluation is stupid atty talk. I'm soooo over that.
