Auto Salesmen and their antics

	I have a curiosity question... what does it really mean when the salesman goes to the back to talk about my offer on a car? Does it mean exactly that, or is it just a stall tactic? Thanks much! Brandon

	Study up on psychology.... not to say that salespeople are psychologists, but they have training courses that lead them where they need to go. When it comes to cars, there are more cars sold with the little head doing more of the thinking than anything else. Next time you go into a store, look at the way the store is laid out.... psychology at work..... A poor salesman will lie to you... a good salesman will let you think you made your own decision...

	indi wrote:> I have a curiosity question... what does it really mean when the salesman> goes to the back to talk about my offer on a car? Does it mean exactly> that, or is it just a stall tactic? No, it's not a stall tactic, it's a smoke break designed to take control of the customer. A standard "if I could, would ya" break, so we can tell you no because we know you're so emotionaly attached to the vehicle that your greed will overcome you when we need a bump for more gross. We do this even if you are willing to pay full pop. This is because we know how emotional buyers are. Oh.. and to the buyers that think they "beat" the dealer, when you leave we always have your money. We can replace our product easily,we never loose.

	Jim Warman wrote:> Study up on psychology.... not to say that salespeople are psychologists,> but they have training courses that lead them where they need to go. EXACTLY! The new car salesmen take classes on how to read the customer. (I've seen the class tapes) For example: If a customer has his arms crossed, it means he is stubborn and probably won't budge. If he will not make eye contact, he is uncomfortable. etc, etc. The salesman usually have the edge. Know all your facts before entering the dealership.

	I once got so angry with the let me talk to the boss process that I got up and went to the bosses office... Then when the dealer didn't want to service a warranty problem I blasted up to the service managers office. Both times were successful, but I still think I paid too much for the car. I found it helpful to go in right before closing, after I just ate dinner.. Not them.... Sean rec.bicycles.marketplace

	I didn't even see that. Looking around in there... I agree. Nothing is wrong w/ Best Buy. Sometimes you can find a better deal, but a lot of the time they sell you quality products at a decent price. -Mike -- A happy kid behind the wheel of a 98 Mustang GT Cold air intake FRPP 3.73 gears Steeda Tri-Ax Shifter Flowmaster 40 Series mufflers (self-installed woohoo) Hi-speed fan switch 255/60R-15 rear tires Subframe connectors Aluminum adjustable clutch quadrant "ZombyWoof" <Zomby-Woof@Zappa.net> wrote in message news:9m9221hc590higcglh5ah4anurv8ivsdfo@4ax.com...> On Sat, 26 Feb 2005 16:52:52 -0800, Scott en Aztlбn> <slothkills@NOyahooSPAM.com> wrote something wonderfully witty:> On Wed, 09 Feb 2005 00:07:56 GMT, <memset@recorddeal.com> wrote:> > I don't care too much about what kinda deal the dealer gets.
