Car Auctions Web

I am trying to figure out the lowest price that any dealer can sell a car for. Every time I want to buy a car a dealer goes below sticker price saying that they are loosing money on a sale but are willing to sell anyways. What kind of bullshit is this? I am preety sure they buy it from factory for something around 30% of a price on window. I just need someone that maybe worked for a dealership knows what is going on by answering this question.

The average mark up on a used Chevy is $4000. The average target profit is around $1200. We will try to sell you the add ons to juice you for the entire $4000 if we can’t get you to pay the entire $4000 spread with out the add ons.

New cars profits used to be $250, but it has been a while and I sold Used Chevy’s in Dallas off I-635.
New cARS sales employ a lot of tricks to get you to think that you are only paying invoice.The invoice might be real, but there are several "reserves" or "commissions" that are guaranteed to the dealer by the factory to get to this. Only a few people are ever able to negotiate or to "dig" into this profit centre in an effort to get a good deal.

Do not buy the extended warranty. Dump the car in four years.

Good luck!

No they should be able to sale anything they want to including their children.!!

I am in the market for a new car but I refuse to buy from a dealer; mainly because I used to work for one..! I went onto Craigslist and my local newspaper but was unable to find anything. Most of the cars there are now all dealer ads or scams from what I have seen.

I know about eBaymotors but I am really looking for a website or paper where I can search a large number of vehicles locally to my city. (In the U.S.)

I always use Craigslist and choose for sale by owner not by dealer. You can also try auctions in your area. Either way I would definetely check the Vehicle History first. I always use CHEAPVINSEARCH.COM for Vehicle History Reports, they are really cheap (only 9.99) , fast and very accurate information!
