Removing CA Items from CR

Sometimes these CAs buy debt for pennies on the dollar. Have you ever gotten a settlement offer for like 50% of the total?

It seems to me the older the debt, the more they will knock off and you may be able to get a pay for delete.

I plan on trying it with a few of my own and I will be very upfront about it and give them a choice, either take what I offer and delete the listing or I will wait for it to fall off my credit report on it's own. Course, the ones I am going to do this with only have a year or two left before they fall off...and they are out of SOL for me..so I kinda have them between a rock and a hard place.

won't hurt to ask, the only thing they can say is yes or no.
