Spring is a bad time of year to buy a boat.

Last day of month is a good day to buy a car and hopefully a boat. Your
salesmen might have to meet a monthly quota. In a large store with lots of
salesmen you may inadvertently pit the salesmen against each other.

If everything else fails, leave. Walking away is your most powerful tool.
Actually it's your only tool. Time is all you really have going for you.
The
one thing a salesman truly cannot handle is the customer getting up and
leaving. You really have to be prepared to walk.

When you walk, mention that tomorrow is another day and maybe you'll
"start
over", that way you don't shut the door behind you but you will intimidate
the salesman.

Hopefully you'll get a phone call later in the day or the next day. If so,
continue to negotiate, they won't call with their best deal, but they will
be close, very close.

Good luck, please post your experience. I think everyone would like to
hear
what happens.

Thanks Richard, Sound advice. I'll be sure to document my experience if
this comes to fruition...
