I agree, but you never know... surely offering a percentage of the repair is fair. If the car is repaired with new rings n seals then betterment can be argued... this is not a new car, it’s a banger.... -

He marched the rude ignorant Twat off his property, not the female buyer. She had the choice to continue, she walked. I’ve been in the same situation a few times, show offs, know it all’s or just the purely ignorant try to scupper just to make themselves feel big. Fuck em.

I wouldn’t refund, they changed their minds following incorrect ignorant advice. They broke the contract.

LIKE.... When you haved a built up pot its easier to cope with the bollocks... Yes, it is very rewarding making your own way, but it isn't easy and you need determination. I sell around a 150 cars a year which gives me an above average comfortable income, however its taken 30 years and the shit never goes away. The thing is I love the job, I'm a wheeler dealer at heart........ Always looking for a deal... -
Autotrader & Manheim Joint Venture...Your thoughts
Arfur Dealy replied to Arfur Dealy's topic in General Dealer Chat
Its more likely to be a monopoly so they can make more money by further reducing our margins -
Luke, if you are straight, I would suggest you ring them enquiring why, this shows you are a responsible business. If not.... hide all of your paperwork and run to the hills with your maidens..... when they get you...say nothing Hope this helps.... Seriously now, its best to confront any issue.... not knowing eats away at you.

We all take big hits, it’s part of the game. He’s not entitled to a full refund, you can deduct 50ppm for use. Also, remember you are not responsible for fair wear n tear. Did you PDI? -

WBAC for bottom. It's got to have the airscarf for cool desirabilty. FMBSH is very desirable, silver and red leather is highly desirable in my book.

New engine in a 100K car, good selling point or not?
Arfur Dealy replied to Mikey360's topic in General Dealer Chat
Unless it’s s new engine fitted buy the manufacturer, keep your mouth shut.... As BHM says, destroy all evidence, don’t mention it. -
Surely Halfords will fit something new for half the price ?

Beware, they haven't put it right yet. Why are they due respect, they are scumbags who give us honest sellers a bad reputation. You shoud name and shame them.

taking the leap from door stepper to a unit..
Arfur Dealy replied to D7neo's topic in General Dealer Chat
Simply don't do it, there's no need, don't do anything in business you don't feel comfortable with If you don't want the commitment, it'll be a constant worry..... I was a door stepper for years, I'm fairly experienced in the matter... You can't run a site part time, you have to commit full time. If you sell online you can use a unit for storage and collection B2 use, these units are generally chdeaper as they are for distrobution and collection only, not retail (selling online) is a way to get around it. However, not a lot of landlords like car dealers..... If you want to grow and sell cars do some dabbling first, one at a time.. Don't do something you are not happy with Your business is your baby, you grow it how you wish... BTW... FFS, my spell checker has disappepepred...... lol -
The great thing about this game is there is no right or wrong way....
