Hi Flazlo,

I would agree with you - that was definitely an error on my part. I can and will absolutely call in advance before visiting any dealerships for inquiries. No matter how empty they seem.

You’re worse than the guys at the dealership...

I don’t mean this at all to be disrespectful, and I usually love your articles, but it almost sounds like you’re defending the dealership? As you mentioned in the article, nothing justified the treatment that came after that from “Kelly” or any of the other bozos. He asked a legitimate question and asked to be taken…

Tom I love you man. But let’s not pretend people don’t sell high-end machinery on Craigslist. The name may invoke dubious feelings, but you can totally find Lambos, Ferraris and Porsches there.

I would say that the customer’s error was an error of ignorance, and I use the term “ignorance” in a purely non-pejorative sense - he didn’t realize how helpful it is to call and make an appointment.

OK, bro: https://orangecounty.craigslist.org/cto/d/lamborghini-huracan-spider/6199455667.html

He was window shopping and didn’t ask to drive the car. The asshole dealership employees would have spent far less time answering a few dumb questions than jerking the kid around.

LOL. Wut?

word

I always find it funny when dealership employees or any employee for that matter make fun of people who can’t afford a $200k car or other pricy stuff. Dude, you are a sales employee. You can’t afford that shit either, so don’t act all mighty.

Like I said, I’m not making excuses for the dealer, but if you want to buy a car of this caliber there is a way to do it so they take you seriously.
