We have so many stereotypes about used car dealers that sometimes we may forget the basic rule: be polite. Despite the stereotypes, there are actually a lot of real pleasant used car dealers out there. These people can help you find the used cars that suit your needs and your budget. The sure way to deal with used car dealers is to get straight into business. This means, you must come prepared. You have done your research, know what you want and know the sensible price to get the used car that you want.
Negotiation
Once you find the used car you want to purchase, it may be hard to get into negotiation mode. You are psyched about the car! But, if you want a good deal for used cars, better your negotiating cap on. You will love your used car better when you snatch a great deal along with it:
1. Begin the negotiations at the start of the talk. You don’t have to wait till the end to let the dealer know the used car prices you are willing to pay for the used car. If they feel you are serious about the used car, the dealer will most likely offer something in between your bargained down price and the sticker price
2. Negotiate the total price, not just the sticker price. There are add-on fees when buying a used car so state your “on the road” budget. This way, it is also easier for you to stick to the price you have in mind.
3. Negotiate a much lower price. Do not be afraid that you will lose the used car entirely if you do. If the dealer senses you are serious about buying, he/ she will offer a mid-range price that you two can agree on.
Price Competition
Before you begin to talk to your dealer, it is always best to have scouted around and talked to other dealers. This way, you will have price comparisons to refer to on your used cars—whether they be used cars Toronto, used cars Montreal, or used cars Vancouver. Besides, a little competition among dealers can do you good. Negotiate how low your dealer can go, and how much discount the other dealers are going to give.
Dealing with dealers is like any negotiation. With a little charm, a smile and lots of patience and knowledge, you’d go a long way on buying used cars and bargaining for used car prices.
