@benzsandbowties: One thing I remind my salespeople of often: We follow a strict process for a reason. We want to make the buying process as simple as possible for our clients, which is why we appraise cars in the beginning. Let's make sure your appraisal allows us to continue along in the process. #luxurycars #usedcars #mercedes #benz #bmw #carappraisal
The dealer isn’t seeing my trade until I’ve negotiated a price on the car I’m buying.

Perhaps they have had the same, “Let us appraise your car real quick!” And then they are held hostage because the dealer won’t bring the keys back, as I have.

I agree if they knew they were upside down then may never even consider trading in or getting a new car .. that would save everyone time .. not just that but potential disappointment.. if she gets excited about a new car then doesn’t trade in and has to keep the BMW she then is gonna be upset everyone wasted time

You always throw out a very lowball appraisal off hand and the customer will be shocked into asking for a formal appraisal.

I sell cars. I sell cars many different ways. 10 different people I may sell them a car 10 different ways. It always ends at the same point and the customer is happy and they leave a great review. Google me.

It’s a control thing. That’s what the steps are about. Everything in the dealership is designed to make you feel like the dealership is in charge. From the style of their ties to the way they talk to you about purchasing. They’re also not your friends

I walked into Subaru wanting to test drive, mentioned the *potential* of trading my Tahoe and they stuck to this same process. I walked out and purchased elsewhere…while I respect you may have a process, not following it is my choice

28,000 miles on a 2025 is not that big of a deal it averages out to about 15,000 miles a year

Maybe people don’t want to be in a process they don’t control. The archaic car sales process needs to change
