which one would you buy?

[mudnut]

Beside bewilderment of how yacht brokers always seem to have a camera,not unlike realestate brokers,that make a particular boat/house look bigger than reality.Sometimes you think one deal is better than the other.So,which of these two boats would you consider buying on face value.A.. Or,B It kinda makes me laugh a bit.It kinda makes me wonder what sort of people are selling boats as well,and if thier heart is in the right place..Mudnut.

Obviously, the $69,000 boat would be preferable to the $15,000 version.
Wait ... maybe I should rethink this one. Is it a “trick” question?

Gord,You were the last person I thought would post on this first.Knowing that you think $'s equal Quality makes your post relavent to your answer<GR>Trick Question you ask?Only if ya think It's tricky.

On the serious side,you would think that people selling property of any sort would have a bit more nouse to what they are putting on the web.Yep,I would look at the $69,000 one and hope it was the wrong pic.Or better yet,look at the 15,000 one and HOPE it was the wrong pic.Mudnut

Maybe is is some tricky marketing ploy.....look at the cheap one, see the expensive one, run back and buy the cheap one becasue it is such a deal...

Recognition of that common misrepresentation of my bias against cheap [you don’t always get what you pay (more) for; but you never get more than you pay (cheap) for - cheap is seldom a bargain] is what drove my opening answer.

These boats are from the same broker. Even a low life broker isn't going to do that. You can be stupid without being sleazy. My own guess is the listing is for the same boat. One is listed as a 1986 and the other a 1968. The broker screwed up the first listing and was unable to delete it and re posted the same listing correctly.
