Sidenote about edmonds.com
Posted by jessepreneur on September 8, 2008
This past Friday, I used the edmonds.com service to price out a new Mercedes C350. I have to say that the deal i was being offered at one of the dealerships was pretty impressive. The MSRP was lowered by $3,500 based on a special incentive, and it ended up making more sense to buy than to lease an 09 because of the incentives on the 2008. We all know you usually get good deals on leases on next years models and good deals when buying on this year’s models. All in all i was happy about the edmonds.com service.
What happened next? We’ll i got a pretty bad salesperson calling me about visiting him at the other dealership. His sleaze sales tacktics completely insulted my intelligence and I will NEVER purchase from that person and have hesitations about buying from that dealership (Mercedes North Houston) because of the people they hire. The good thing about edmonds is that you have the ability to walk away over the phone and not answer the persons call. Imagine being stuck with “Alex” (the sleeze) at the dealership and not being able to escape for hours. So my advise — Always get headway over the phone before visiting a dealer.
