How to sell a $13,500,000 private jet!

I saw your advertisement for a Global Express.

It's your 2005. What can I tell you? How much are you wanting for it?

13 million 500,000. Are you doing this for a customer?

No, we are currently... we have a small jet at the moment. We have a little L 35A.

Wow, L 35? I mean, that airplane's got to be about 50 years old.

It's in '9', I think it is. We had such success with that little one, that's why we're looking at the older Global Expresses to do the same thing, put our mark on it.

Are you going to keep that airplane, obviously for shorter trips, or, uh, so called our local jet?

Is that one, uh, that works very well?

What's your time period you think you're going to be looking to buy?

Uh, it's going to be probably in the next six months.

And what's your budget?

It's around that ballpark, between around the 10 to 15 million.

And the airplane is, uh, US-based too, just so you know?

That's exactly what we want.

Yeah, that's a real inquiry. I mean, they have a... that airplane they have is... I was only joking, 50 years, but um, that airplane's probably got to be about 30 years old.

It's a real customer, and there's probably a potential he is going to buy something before the end of the year.

Just from that short phone call, it was easy to tell.
