But this has changed in recent years as my approach is to always give the best deal I can upfront and NOT wait for the weekend. Still, I do see some people coming back on Saturday and Sunday to renegotiate or buy something at the last minute, or on their way out the door.
I am still one of the old time dealers who accepts checks as a form of payment, for sometimes large amounts that other dealers would not take a chance on. If we have done business before, your check is golden and in most cases if we have not done business before, I still accept checks when my antennas do not go off. If I refuse a check, then that means I have some immediate concerns about the purchaser.

Glad to hear someone still takes checks, I still pay with them sometimes. On here if it is someone I have dealt with before they usually send out the cards when I send out the check. Some wait till they receive the check and a few wait till it clears the bank. I figure as long as I don't have to use PayPal I am happy.
