Car sales isn’t perceived as the most honorable vocation. But this Mercedes-Benz of Smithtown, New York, employee says that a customer ended up pulling a tactic that dishonest salesmen are known for, and it made him not want to make a deal with the client.
Christian (@ctalktoem) explained in a social media post that he had worked out a deal for a Mercedes GLE 53 with the buyer before they came to the showroom. But when the client arrived, they were in no rush to sign on the dotted line.
Customer Switches Up After Mercedes GLE 53 Phone Negotiation
“Client calls in looking for a GLE 53. We agree to pricing. He’s like, 'I’m coming in at three o’clock. Three o’clock comes around; he comes in. He sits down. I give him the paperwork. I say, 'This is where you sign.' He says, 'Whoa I still want to negotiate,'” Christian tells his viewers.
The statement gives the car seller some pause because as he understood it, they had already agreed to the price on the phone. Hence, he prepared all of the paperwork for the client to sign when he arrived at their previously agreed-upon time. “I’m like, 'Why do you still want to negotiate? We agreed to pricing over the phone?'” he says.
