[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When you find "a car," every dealership can have that exact same car "available" and they all intend to have it shipped from wherever it actually sits. They are all trying to sell you the same car sitting on a lot in Cincinnati or the like. Even if you get the price quote, when you go to pick it up, they will put you through "meetings" with 5 different people all of whom try to up sell you on things to add to the car. Even when you say no to every single one, it can take hours to get out of there. They simply will not accept your check and give you the keys. We were paying a baby sitter $25 per hour, so this costs you time and money. The last time we did this, I held the check up, the price they has already agreed to, and said give me the keys or we walk. They said, let me get someone else for you to talk to. I walked. The chased us into the parking lot with the keys. F'ing hate car sales.[/quote] I'm a single woman. I have to be honest with you. I've bought and sold at least three cars completely on my own, by myself. And I have NEVER had that experience. I usually go in with a trade in car. I have an idea what the car is worth. Then, I also usually have some money down. And I have excellent credit. I usually feel like I get a good deal on the car. I've only ever interacted with one salesperson though. Sometimes there's a different finance person. I usually go in with all the bank rate and loan information prepared so I'm not clueless. And I just tell them flat out, no way to all the extras. Can't afford it. They know that. Why waist time? [/quote]
