Real good discounts

I saw the movie Margin Call with kevin spacey and at the end traders got really good deals at like 90,80, and 70cents on the dollar. Have any of you ever got a really good deal like that before? (atleast 5cents off)

I can't even tell if you're trolling... I hope so.

Jack: They’re all former investment bankers who were laid off from that economic crisis that Nancy Pelosi caused. They have zero real world skills, but God they work hard. -30 Rock
 

I take it you're trolling like a boss, but I'll give you a pointer in buying distressed assets.

You should have bought a stake in the Lehman bancruptcy. A ton of creditors were selling notes from 6 to 26 cents to the dollar when they were neck deep in shit.
