Illusionist

Price is an illusion just like magic. The stated price or the sticker price are magical, they're malleable. They're not stagnant or static.

Just recently someone got a Culligan water purifier (retails for thousand) for $50. It was two years old, but works great.

Prices are not what they appear to be.

Another person paid $4200 for a new furnace because they "had to." "Thank- goodness for a home-equity line of credit,"they said.
Just because a furnace goes out, don't run and call the first person to replace your furnace.

Go slow.

Yes it's cold outside but sweaters and heaters exist.

Get your furnace fixed AFTER rationally calling multiple professionals.

Could it be fixed? Can you buy wholesale? What other options are there?

Price is an illusion and you're the master magician. You decide what you'll pay.
