What about car dealerships?

I just tell them they lost the bid. If they want my business they should have given me the vehicle at the price I bought it less a substantial amount as I do not need them to copy the deal, they have to beat it. It stops the calls.

They may remember me the next year or two later if I am actually shopping for a car and treat me better. It may help other buyers get a better deal if they know there are people like me who do their due diligence before plunking down their money.

If a dealer gives me a low ball I go back and ask for the deal. If they do not honor it, I tell them nice try, I would not buy anything here, not even service as you cannot be trusted.

I have been told by friends that sell cars that I am a salesperson's nightmare. They have quotas and managers. If you hit them at the right time of the month they can give you deals that are rare.

I have enjoyed doing these shops. I have test-driven Lexus, Infiniti, Volvo, Cadillac and Audi vehicles. This gave me an opportunity to dream again! One last minute shop, I earned $50 for test driving a Lexus.
I earned $20.00 for testing a Lexus, yet they pay $30.00 for test driving a Mercedes...but 50.00 and I would be doing them all day!!

There is one company that only pays $14.00. I did that when I was just starting out but now it is too time consuming for less than $20.00. Monterey pays a flat $25 except for the super luxury brands in which I have seen the pay at $150.00 while Intellishop pays between $20 and $30 depending on the brand. I love test driving cars and after you have done a few the report goes quickly.
I agree and work for Intelli-shop. Monterey does not have work in my area. I do the Keyes dealerships and still get called from Hyundai, which I did 2 months ago....really wants to sell.
