Auto Dealer Scams - How to Prevent Them By Tom Tessin At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

Buying a car new or used is not always a picnic you need to watch out for scam dealers who work around the clock trying to get that deal from you no matter how much it costs. You pay through the nose and end up with a piece of junk if you are not careful. Many times a used vehicle may not be worth the asking price because it was involved in an accident, messed up pretty badly, and the problems are masked so you the buyer are not aware of the problems. You should not fall for the “scam dealer” tricks to push you into buying the car today. It is a common practice for a dealer who is trying to unload a lemon to force you into buying by making remarks like “better buy today can’t promise this car will be here tomorrow.” The odds are the vehicle has been on the lot for a month of Sunday’s and impossible to unload or they know it does not have much left in it and eventually will not start up at all. A really desperate dealer might even go so far as to ask if you want the car then what will it take to get you to go ahead sign today because we can’t hold the car just for you. Remarks like this are some of the oldest tricks in the business.

The scam dealer who is trying to get you to buy a certain vehicle and has added a lot of fee’s in order to get you to pay more probably will tell you that “everybody pays this fee, it is standard procedure.” This again is just a scam to get a bigger down payment or add more to your loan agreement. When you are trying to bargain on a used car to get the price down it is a common thing for a car salesperson to make silly remarks like “I am loosing the shirt off my back,” in truth he probably took the car in on trade and did not pay anything to the party who did the trade. These sayings are common knowledge and used for years by car dealers and are not meant to copy anyone person or dealership if they are used elsewhere is in print it is a coincident not copied. We are not trying to reflect any particular dealership tactics instead we are speaking in an overall manner of any dealership who uses these types of tactics in there sales techniques. Unfortunately, there are dealerships out there that use scam tactics as a means of selling vehicles but we also like to here give applause to the many who are honest, hardworking and loyal dealers. We realize that without these dealers no one would ever be able to get a vehicle and have it financed in the proper manner. We hope that this article will help the consumer to open there eyes to the everyday scammer who uses this type of verb age in order to make a sale. This is the oldest manner of horse-trading as it is referred in the books so beware the sales person who tell you “you are stealing food from his baby’s mouth.” Check out the Babe!
