Replying to: jmonroe (Apr 19, 2008 2:13 pm) Ok so are we all in agreement that I am a laydown?  An interesting point about that dealership. They had been around since the late 1800s selling horse drawn carriages. My salesperson was the youngest on their staff at 59. The oldest I was told was 76. We are talking about the salesforce. Needless to say I doubt half of them are there anymore.

So, technically you were not a highly ranked laydown... just one of those "commoner"... mid to lower level laydowns.

Floor guy: "Ok, I talked to my manager. He says that he could have Janey wear a platinum wig and high heels, but he can't do any more."

This website claims to negotiate on your behalf for a car at cost. All this guy did was sell my name to the local car dealership, who e-mailed me to invite me to stop by. Don't be misled.

Replying to: 35divg2 (May 04, 2008 10:22 am) We also pay for the leads. So the company makes decent coin from both sides, dealers, and customers, but for us is not worth it because we rarely make any money on the deals, and many of them are out of towners who use our quotes to buy from local dealers.
