Either ya want something or ya don't

A friend told me this story today: "Few months ago, I was trying to sell a small white dresser. I told someone that I would take $20 for it. The person asked if I would be willing to go lower? I told him $15 firm! He said that he cannot pay that much because he didn't like the color. I sold it to someone else for $15 and then E- mailed him to tell him that it has been sold."

I guess the first potential buyer wasn't really interested. Color is such a trivial thing to make someone pass on a decent piece of furniture. I mean, you can always paint it....right?
