[QUOTE="Ray Gullan, post: 982416, member: 70138"] Who cares how much a dealer/seller makes on a sale. Profit is not a bad word. If you know how much or little a dealership has in a car, do you really think it will get you a better deal? I dont think so. Current market value decides what someone pays for a car- If the price is too much, one can be found cheaper. I sold cars for a number of years and I buy cars like everyone else. I do my research, if its too much, I make a realistic offer. The dealership/seller decides what they will sell it for, not the other way around. Example: My dealership took in a Overland Jeep, I bought it for over $3500 more than they took it in for. Why? Because the selling price was was STILL a great deal compared to every other comparable Jeep within 1000miles. Nobody gets hypnotized or tricked when buying or trading in a car. They decide on their own and agree or walk away. If it's a fair deal to the buyer, what the dealership makes does not matter. Im sure the guy took a hit trading in a modified vehicle- you never get back what you put in, Unless it's a house. I respect the man's privacy and decision to keep HIS deal to HIMSELF. What we pay for gas/oil & electricity on the other hand is where we are being taken advantage of. [/QUOTE]
