We don’t call it lying exactly but the point of sales is to move product, PERIOD. Doesn’t seem to matter if the person needs or can afford things, or whether they came in with a certain purchase in mind…we always hear some version of Do you want fries with that?
I can’t believe in particular, the way vehicles are sold. The FIRST thing a salesman does when you get in the vehicle is TURNS ON THE RADIO, as if that has ANYTHING to do with the car’s quality.
And haggling OK, somewhat understandable since the market varies. But Good God. If they want to get the best price all the time, they could only sell cars once a week, on Saturday afternoon, BY AUCTION, just like Grandma’s estate. Every other day is for test driving and filling out paperwork. That way the buyer decides how much the car is worth, and the dealer can take it or leave it. Why is this NOT the way things are done? In the meantime, GO Saturn, like your sales style. Got any Toyota’s?
I was going to an insurance auction and or bid online and it came to me such a question how much would you say these new 2008 2006 2007 crashed or broken vehicles would be worth.

I purchased a card from a dealer. The car is legally mine. If the dealer bought the car at an auction, using a floor plan, and then defaulted on that loan, can the floor plan company legally refuse to send me the title? Since the floor plans’ loan to the dealer is not for any specific vehicle, how can they say that the title is collateral in their suit against the dealer?
I have been researching on Idaho’s DMV website on how to obtain a dealer’s license. It looks like I am going to have to come up with a $20,000 bond and a commercial location/land in order to even apply for a dealers license. It also states that if you are not going to sell more then 5 vehicles a year and they will be registered in your name, the you do not need a license. That is where I fit in, not needing a license, so can anyone tell me if there is a way to get a dealer’s license get into dealer auctions where I can get lower then book pricing so I can make profits off my sales? I am looking for any help and anyone who has been through the same situation I am currently in. Thanks!!

I heard that you can could buy wrecked or un operational vehicles and take them apart to sell the parts and make nearly as twice as much as you spent to get the vehicle…. but i also used to know a guy that buys cars and auctions then fixes them a bit or just sells them as is for more… which would make the most money? and is there somewhere online i could find out more information on doing these types of things?
I have had this vehicle for 1 and a half years I have had two transmissions put in and now they say that it needs a third. To get this car worked on I have to take it about 200 miles from where I live My question if I just tell them I am tired of this vehicle to come and get it would I be liable for the difference after auction?
