Attachments Extra
We agreed upon a purchase price for the as-is-where-is-money-pit-of-a-farm from, as it turned out, an eccentric grifter. This was Spring 2012.
What we hadn’t fully anticipated was Grifter’s à la carte approach to the arrangement.
“Ahhh look, if ya wanna farm, yeah, ya gonna need a tractor. Ahhh look, there’s one over there, yeah. See it? It’s for sale… Ya might want the bed former too”
Attachments extra.
“Ahhh look. If ya wanna farm garlic, cause it’s a garlic farm, then ya gonna need garlic seed, yeah? Takes about 3000 pounds I reckon. I got some of that. You can have it for… $12.00 a pound.”
Got to get that shit in writing.
We had to endure these protracted negotiations for a time as we idiotically agreed to let Grifter squat on the property until their exit plans came to term.
I’ll give you an exit.
And so it went.
