David Horgan 564 Posted May 18, 2019 Had four cars a little to long in my opinion , thought Bugger it I'll put them up , always works when I get that fuzzy feeling in my head 1 , £12,495 to £12,995 , =6 weeks 2 , £12, 295 to £12,695 =5 weeks 3 , £4,795 to £4,995 =4 weeks 4, £3,290 to £3,495 =9 weeks That was two days ago , AT shown increased attention on all 4 Web site trackers shown increased attention too . Today we have sold all four cars before 11am £1,100 better off and they never chipped us . Even got two bottles of wine and a box of chocolates As I've said before , Funny old trade at times . Anyone do this trick on a regular basis , Customers know best sometimes . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nick M.K. 574 Posted May 18, 2019 I love repricing up. My AT rep recently said that on one ad I did 28 price changes in 3 months :-) A car CAN look too cheap and hence the target buyer will miss it completely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark101 536 Posted May 18, 2019 Nice one David - I put my prices up at least if not more often than down = reassuringly expensive and all that = proper punters not bargain hunters Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My wife asked that They said i was a nice guy and not a salesman , They had some bad experiences with pushy boys at big outlets So the chocolates were a genuine gift , But my wife has stolen them Daughter in law took the wine 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
