If he has to tell you he's one of the "nice" ones...

Many of us have had the new car purchase experience. And when you have a good one you tell people, right?

But this is the Internet Age and if there ain't pictures it didn't happen. And there are some dumbasses out there just stupid enough to push it over the line and call you a liar if you won't put up. So you do thinking you got the last laugh. The numbers are real. It really was a great deal and it verifies everything you'd been saying to these lowlife salesjerks. Instead of admitting they were wrong, they start crapping in new directions comparing apples to oranges all over again... bottom line to "invoice" ... insulting you and others even further ... and daring you to tell their boss.

Dude private messages me that my on the road price was $5 better than his secret order pricing book tells him "invoice" is. Can I see those numbers? They're probably confidential. And of course they're lower than anything online that the public could see... the root of the argument. The "invoice" price I found before I bought my car was $2300 more than I actually paid proving once again "invoice pricing" is nothing more than a sales gimmick. Even if it was a real price, it's still a number that hasn't been taxed and tagged and walked back and forth to some sales managers office. Is the apples and oranges allegory that hard to grasp? Do I let the insults slide or call the punk-ass 23-year old's "professional" bluff. He sent me his sales manager's address. I looked up the -owner- of the dealership in a matter of 2 minutes. (average guy... 61, married, address, phone, dealerships are straight with the EPA, and he gave money to the RNC in 2004)

I honestly want to convey to this kid that he needs to -earn- his million selling a million for a buck a piece. If he keeps up with this deceptive, manipulative, bullshit, high pressure, you-can-trust-me-because-I-say-I'm-not-lying approach he's going to have a shitty career as a salesman. Attacking and insulting people in public ain't helping much either. I'm just trying to decide if his insults are worth me taking another five minutes of my time to radically alter his career path.

I suck at poker. I never bluff. I can't believe I just called a 23-year old a punk-ass.
