Money can always be recouped. Time can't. To steal/waste someone's time by trying to "get them in" when they wouldn't otherwise is something I would not take kindly to at all.
+1, if I were ND I'd invoice the lying POS dealer for his time.

I have a rule when dealing with dealers. As soon as things start to go south, I just walk out. Not worth the time or aggravation.

My best luck has been with fleet or internet departments. Invoice + a fixed amount (usually a couple hundred), little or no negotiation, no screwing around. I had one genuinely good car buying experience in my life, unfortunately it was with a dealer 50 miles away, so giving them more of my business is pretty inconvenient.
