... ok, so I go to the Doctors office for an MRI on my lower back to get a second opinion... since I just had one done, my insurance said it was not covered and the Doctors wanted $3,200 to do the MRI ...

... so I took out a business card ... wrote down my offer of $1,800 and walked out ...

... how long should I wait to hear from them?

I wouldn't imagine to long you should have said $1200.00.

I can get MRI's wholesale

Ill do it for 5-fitty!!

I fly out of state and get MRIs off craigslist.

Why didn't you have the first MRI results sent to the 2nd doctor?

If you don't pay it they will probably turn you into a collection agency and trash your credit rating. What sucks even more is you have to pay retail and not the insurance company's negotiated reduce rates (unless the accept you offer).

Have you tried to trade in the old MRI? Given the state of your back, maybe you're covered by Cash for Clunkers. You could pay the $3,200 and still pocket either $300 or $1,300, depending on what kind of gas mileage you get (I'd suggest filling up on Taco Bell's Value Meal items to stretch your gas dollar).
