BDBGoalie Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Right, right. I meant only in the case where paperwork did not match either other paperwork or negotiated price, not the price just being too high/low for the market.That makes sense.

turnone Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Just flat out wrong. Not sure it's 2.2 million wrong but definitely wrong.Article states they should have charged him 39K instead of 34K. I'm no lawyer, but once you sell the vehicle, I can't imagine you can go back and ask for more money. Chalk that up a mistake you don't want to repeat. But $5K to nomal car dealership isn't going to sink them, but getting sued for being a douce will hurt them far more in sales.

Scruit Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 They probably told the staff responsible that they get the buyer to couch up the difference or THEY had to repay the money that was lost....$5k on a $40k car could go either way - some might argue that it is clearly a mistake and some would say it's just a damn good deal... Still, reporting the car stolen is bad - I wonder if they explained the exact circumstances to the police or if they just said it was "stolen"...

Wouldn't that be a violation of labor laws if it wasn't a willful fraud perpetuated on the company by the employee?Second, wouldn't reporting the car as stolen even though you have a valid sales contract fall under filing a false police report?

If the register is short, *I* had to pay them back. (Although I never got to keep overages, huh...) I wonder if the manager threatened the same concept (rightly or wrongly - not many folks would argue anything the dealership did was "right!")

InyaAzz Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 The dealership bought the car backhttp://autos.yahoo.com/blogs/motoramic/dealership-camaro-thrashing-story-buys-back-car-satisfied-221510197.html...but you know the only reason they did that was because they got caught red handed.
