I absolutely agree 100%

I wish you the very best of luck, follow your heart

Unless you look like, (who's favorable at the mo...... Naz the weather girl)

+1 again on my myself, just because I can

Andy, put a new roof on it, its a great selling point and will add value.

Rory, admittedly it is a harsh term, but these people are showing us such little respect for what we do, it is IMO highly offensive and justified. Now, I'm not talking about healthy banter and general negotiation, that isn't what's being discussed here. I am talking specifically about the pig shit ignorant 3am texter / email from mr Anonomous saying "give u 8k cash" on a 13k car. DELETE

Absolutely 100% agree with you. To call these scumbags customers is insulting to real "customers" who are polite and treat us with the respect we deserve.

Manners maketh the man. By responding you are encouraging them. You are lowering yourself to their level. These people are scummy low life's, they are showing you such little respect and you don't even realise it...... I find them deeply offensive and you are encouraging these morons. You are making the job harder for all of us decent hard working Motor Dealers.

What a numpty ! Dear Me Customer, you bought a used car not a new car, your expectations should be reasonable and reflect its age mileage and the price paid

Too add, by replying you are saying to these scumbags it's acceptable / ok for them to try and bring us down to their level.

Mat you are exactly right "courtesy costs nothing" when an anonymous inquiry comes through by text or email which is discourteous DELETE. Would you sell a car to someone who walked onto your forecourt and spat in your face ? I don't think so, with that in mind.....that is exactly what these people are doing to you by email / text. They're Scumbags.

If you work as a remote seller, they have to trust you

All my cars are sold prior to viewing, I'm very flexible and make myself available 7 days a week for collection. As long as it doesn't interfere with my life, golf, football, family, beer and is no later than 4.30. I could never sit on a site for 9 hours a day, it would drive me crazy. I don't see my job as work, I'm a wheeler dealer and I manage my work around my life. Not the other way, it has to be on my terms....

Mrs Dealy made me do this today too

Absolutely agree.

Sir ?

If you just want "last price" you miss the point on quality. The UK offers quality. Our economy doesn't work on a barter society, the UK is one of the most advanced economies in the world, that's why you came here so don't compare a UK Retailer to your country. Show some respect.

Mat, the pig **** ignorant low ball "give you £300" by text are the epitome of scum. The inquiry they have sent isn't an inquiry, its them personally spitting in your face by text. Dealing with cretins like that isn't worth a second thought apart from DELETE. If they really want to buy the car they will call and correspond in a polite effective manner.

Take a deeeeep breath, I'm 100% with you Unfortunately they have no respect. They compare the uk to a Market into Scummystinkybad, or wherever they are from and think we should do business their way. The arrogance / disrespect really grains me, that's why I won't appoint anyone until they've paid a deposit upfront.

Were "Wet behind the ears". If you need advice on how to pass your gcse look elsewhere

Dave, I admire your enthusiasm. But you are just "Dave" an anonymous phishing researcher. Or pretending to be. Let's be frank. Your anonymous build up is BS, if you want people to get behind you, show us proof, you show your cards, otherwise your just a dreaming faker. Don't say believe in me or it'll take time because that's BS aswell. Proof..........

Dave, I'm not negative, I'm a realist. You ultimately are researching here with the potential to trial a product which you hope to sell to us. So far, from your approach you haven't given me the slightest confidence to believe in you. You sound to me like a market trader trying to offer an "amazing" new product, then when you show the product it'll be an apple peeler. Big build up with a huge let down. I wish you the best of luck and would love to be proved wrong I mean that. Simon

This sounds just like a dreaming student writing a thesis Which will inevitably turn into a quickly disappearing flop.
