Ahh ok might knock the door later, didnt think of going down the 'where
did you get it from, as i want one like it route'

if the neighbour doesn't want to sell it it still gives you an 'out',
letting you walk away with some pride intact and without looking like a free
loader. If you ask if they want to sell it, should they be thinking of
giving it away their is a good chance they may offer it to you at a really
low price. If you don't get it and the neighbour ever asks you whether you
bought one for yourself you can make some excuse about it not being quite
what you wanted after all.
