For the record though, I ended up turning down a full price offer. Originally I had told the purchaser that I would sell 16G one of two ways: At full asking price- I would have an annual performed before the sale OR I would discount my asking price by $600 to allow for an annual after the sale. Long story short, without even asking him to do so, the buyer offered me my full asking price without requiring me to have an annual performed. I've received many compliments on 16G, but hands down this was by far the nicest.
Mont,
Your airplane sounds like a gem. I'm sure it's a difficult decision to make whether or not to sell it. Personnally I would be rather ticked off if I saw an airplane I liked advertised for sale, offered full asking price plus forgiving the promise of an annual thrown in, only to have the airplane taken off the market. Don't waste a good buyer's time. Maybe I'm in the minority, but when I give my word on something, I keep it even though it turns out I might lose a few bucks. The solution is not to give one's word before understanding the consequences. Good luck with whatever you decide.
