Can you give me infromation on how to buy a used car from the newspaper?
First and foremost, please only serious responses.
Okay I might be breaking some car dealer code or something, but come on and let me in the loop, becaue I'm at my witts end with this crap.
My story might be a little long, but vaild for how you might respond.
A lot of people that I have contacted in the newspaper (because this is the only way I can find cars within my price range) will tell me that they have sold the car I'm calling about, but the all of a sudden they have another car but it's supposed to a little more than the car I was calling for. A lot of these men that I'm calling seem to already be dealers.
The feeling that I'm getting is that these dealers are buying cars from these accutions that regular folk can't get into, and they probably half a** fix them up and sell them. Am I correct and should I avoid these type of deals. Does anyone have some hidden advice that you could give in dealing with these people.
Also when the sellar says they will make it where that you want have to pay sales tax is that another way of knowing that they are dealer and something might be wrong with this situation?
I'm looking for anything to help me with this process. I would go to a dealership, but unfourantely I can't afford it so I'm stuck. Thanks in advance.
IF your contacting them and they are telling you that they have already sold the car, this means that they are trying to switch you. They put a the cheapest price on a car and run it as an ad in the paper. This tactic is know as a price driver, something that will attract buyers to come out to thier dealership, so that they can have an opportunity to sell you something else. Dealers that are not francised often do buy cars from auctions. If your looking or a car in the 3K range there are two things you can do. The first thing to do is to try and buy it from an individual where you can go and look at the car. Read my article on buying a good used car at http://www.adviceontime.com/Tips%20on%20buying%20a%20used%20car.htm The second thing you can do is go to a francised dealer (Ford dealership, Chevy) on a busy day like a Sat and ask the used car manager if he got any good trades you can buy for about 3K. If you still need more help or have any other questions feel free to post them on here. Thanks for stopping by!
