When they say firm, I usually find they won't move on price in advance, but maybe in person. The Norco is probably about a 2002 model, so when you get there you can say "well, it's a nice bike, but it's like ten years old and needs work. I can give you $160 cash right now and take it away, but that's the best I can do". I'd avoid asking for his best price or if he can do better on the price - since he's already stated " firm", asking for a better price will probably just get him to dig in his heels. Instead I'd recommend just offering something close to what he's asking. Avoid insulting him when you point out defects, you have to be gentle like "man it's a sweet bike, just more of a project than I was expecting".
Thanks for the advice. And happy buying
