And they say us dealers have no morals......
Discussion
To address the balance of dealers are spineless money grabbers. I have just received this enquiery via my aototrader site.

Nice eh? Due the bashing us traders get i grab any chance to highlight the moral compass of the general public, i also like to state thet in 20 years in the trade i have never been "done" by anyone in the trade, Mr joe public on the other hand have tried many a time.
. Oh , and my response is below.
"Hello, thanks for your interest, unfortunately i dont do business by stepping on others toes in the hope that no one would do it to me. If you have done a deal then you must honour it. Who ever you are buying from will have gone to effort to get YOUR new car ready for YOU. Its simply not fair nor gentlemanly to renege on a deal like that. Imagine you turn up on sunday and the dealer has sold it to someone else? I dont imagine you would be impressed? Please dont take as a lecture, more a realisation that car dealers have morals. Thanks again for your interest and perhaps we will do business again in the future."
