I am looking on iPhone, iPad and Mac computer (without account) and the new markers aren't live for me All I can think of they are trialling them still for a small percentage of users. We will get an email when they go live across the board Edited December 4, 2019 by Nick M.K. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can't do much because I'm PAYG, but it's interesting to see there's a workaround. Shame it's in the public forum though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

J.T 39 Posted December 4, 2019 I think Dealer Portal has had a few issues today with the price markers, I put up a Fabia Auto today which it told me to buy yesterday for £2700 with their valuation and today when I put the price in at £3999 it said the retail value was £2500 and my car was £1500 overpriced!! Then it changed it's mind again and valued it correctly at £4600, and priced it as low which is where it should be. Do these price markers actually make any difference though, I have a few cars priced as low but the phone isn't falling off the wall? I was speaking to the proprietor of the Mitsubishi dealership that I mentioned earlier whose the majority of their cars are priced High/Fair and he wasn't too happy about it, one thing he did say worried me a little though. He mentioned reducing his prices across all of his stock to get rid of some of the markers, yet if all the main dealers start doing this then surely the average price will drop and the cars we have advertised with Good markers then become fair to high?

CCC 31 Posted December 4, 2019 (edited) How to bite the hand that feeds. Force margins down by creating pressure to lower prices. Frankly ludicrous. Consumers may live it but they aren’t the ones paying for it. Edited December 4, 2019 by CCC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
