1) Dealerships are free to price their vehicles however they want. You are free to pay it, offer less, go somewhere else, etc, etc.. Unless the dealer is dishonest in his dealings, that isn't predatory, or even unethical. If the customer decides the offer is non-competitive, they can vote with their feet. 2) Someone that disagrees with your point of view does not have to be a salesperson or a dealership employee. They also don't deserve to be berated about their opinions. If you disagree, that's fine, but personal comments are not welcome on this board. Now, back to Prices Paid, or I'll have to get out the big stick.. regards, kyfdx Host-Prices Paid Forums P.S.: Comments about this post are neither encouraged or welcome, whether you agree or not. |

Some dealerships tactics are unethical. Very confusing and misleading. There needs to be some reforms to protect the consumer.

| Thanks for sharing. That is a more realistic price. I am on a mission to protect consumers who are not so savvy and prepared when they go into a dealership. It's ridiculous to state a certain price in advertising and you go to the dealership and you come out with a quote 10 thousand higher with all the hidden costs and financing. Or advertising a very low price per month and the it is because it is balloon financing and end up with paying ten thousand or losing a lot of money in three years. | |

Replying to: hyusubiesales (Jul 28, 2007 9:06 pm) I can't accept your deal because it's too good of a bargain! According to the so-called "experts" here, I need to overpay and accept uncompetitive offers to allow unscrupulous and predatory car dealers to stay in business. For what's it's worth, the same dealer that gave me the ridiculous, predatory counter-offer ($16,500+TTL) ran an ad in the local newspaper (July 29, 2007) for the same vehicle for $14,999+TTL. But, according to the "expert," I should treat this dealer civilly even though they obviously attempted to rip me off.

Replying to: market (Jul 29, 2007 8:04 pm) Garlyn Shelton Hyundai in Bryan/College Station. I don't think you can get it $ 14,000 if you pay cash, as the deal included $ 1,000 extra HMFC balloon financing rebate. |

Replying to: worldly (Jul 30, 2007 8:16 am) No one suggested that you should pay more than the going rate. No one suggested that you should buy from a dealer that has high prices. We did suggest that dealers can ask whatever they want for their goods. That isn't unethical. These aren't life neccessities that can't be acquired in any other manner. You are free to buy the same car from another dealer, or even another car altogether. If a dealer consistently gets beat on price, then he'll be out of business eventually. I'm not sure why you are so angry. According to your own posts, no dealer has done anything but quote you a price that you don't like. regards, kyfdx
