Coworker went to pick up an Infinty FX. He negotiated price. Told dealer he had a check. Dealer upped price because he was not using dealers financing. Dealer would not sell him the car for the negotiated price. Another coworker had dropped him off at the dealer. He had to call a cab to get home.
I picked up a Mazda 3 for a commuter car. Had a difficult time negotiating even tho you can find that car everywhere. First offer back from the dealer manager was the list, I was like WTF, not even an attempt to come down. Got my price but it was only after I walked.
Later on I realized what had happened. Made the mistake of giving the guy some info like my home address. He zillowed my house.
