    can you go home or Get a load the next morning?

    I'd toss $675 at them and take anything over $625 most likely.

    I should have been a little more clear, my answer is based on the assumption that you wouldn't beable to reload the same day. If that would be the case, I would want $1000 to do the load, might not get it, but could more than likely get better than $600. Now if I knew I could reload the same day then I would ask for $800 and see what they countered with, hopefully they would meet me in the middle.
