Very nice truck FL, I know how long you've been looking and how much you want this truck but to pay more than KBB for a truck in less than perfect condition...I think you should really concentrate in trying to talk the guy down in price. As Bartak says, print out a copy of the KBB and then show up (if you can) with $12,000 cash. Most sellers will negotiate a lot better if the cash is right there in front of them to do the talking for you. And most sellers ask more than they really expect to get up front so they can settle for what they really wanted in the first place.
Whatever you do, ultimately it is your decision and if you decide to pay the $15,200 it's totally your call. Just my .02 and it is a very nice looking ride!!

Sled, beautiful truck! They DO have the best butts, very curvyish 
You could think of the rear fenders on flaresides as "lovehandles" for the guy flareside trucks, and the stepsides are the "hips" for the girl flareside trucks.
wmr, there's really no excuse as to why the price is jacked up about $4k over. I still would LOVE to get that truck. I just don't have $12,000 in cash... Do you mean $12,000 in my posession? I would rather pay average or lower than average price for a truck... or if something better is out there I'd like to see it. You just get that feeling though, that if you don't act on this then it'll slip from your grip...
TritonXLT, Do you have a pic?
Bartak, there's enough for everyone...haha
