Message	:I haven't heard back from the insurance company with their settlement amount (I'll call it the opening bid), but they did tell me it was totalled. The cost to repair is greater than 10K. :I'd like some advice: :1. Anybody have experience/advice on how to negotiate a settlement, specifically on how to maximize the $$$'s. :2. Anybody buy the car back from the insurance company? How did you go about it, what did you pay, etc. :Original story :[ http://www.twinturbo.net/net/viewmsg.aspx?forum=general&msg_id=726131 ] :and some pics :[ http://www.twinturbo.net/net/viewmsg.aspx?forum=general&msg_id=731338 ] :Thanks, :Jeff I AM AN INSURANCE ADJUSTER, YOU SHOULD EXPECT TO PAY %20 OF ACV, WHICH IS WHAT THEY WILL TRY TO SETTLE FOR, NOT WHAT YOU MIGHT THINK ITS WORTH, DO YOUR HOMEWORK
