If they act all upset and insulted, that's too bad. Unless you're asking for ridiculous prices, they should be professional and tell you upfront whether that is acceptable to them or not. Then you can decide to deal with them or move on...at least that's how it SHOULD work...

well, after much debate, i found the tl i want, $200 over invoice, $32,955 (per the dealer) w/navi, so I think I'm getting a pretty good deal, the phoenix market dealerships didn't seem to want to 'wheel and deal' too much. Anywho, the fee I'm not to jazzed about is a $300 doc fee. Is this fee negotiable? THANKS!

Some may pay more....but you deservingly should pay less as you have performed the proper due dilligence to determine the appropriate price and have properly entered into an agreement to give a monetary consideration for goods.

However, the sales man earns 100% commission based on whatever they can get over invoice price. So in most cases, don't expect to be received with flowers and red carpet if you are getting invoice price or bellow. If you are getting the car at invoice price, most likely the sales man is not getting a dime out of the sale. Some sales people would tell you straight forward, and they are telling the truth.... others will follow up and give out their time to show you the car and take you to a test drive, even though they know they will not get any money out of you if you buy on invoice. And that's another reason why its better to deal on the internet, because sometimes you deal with the fleet manager, which might or might not earn 100% commission. I really feel bad for the people in this line of work, because it is a tough job..... but then that doesn't mean we need to pay the outrageous prices they initially want for their cars. For all of you guys who are getting your cars at invoice or less.... well its a great deal, but don't expect to much on customer service, because you are surely not well received.... by the sales person on the floor at least.
