The damn sales people in furniture stores are just as bad if not worse. Went to 4 different furniture stores with my wife Tuesday night and every place had some fucking bozo on my heels. Finally got sick of it on the 4th store and told the guy I was completely furnishing my new 5 bedroom home (lie) but since he would not back off I was going somewhere else. The look on his face was priceless.

Aren't they that way in every place?

I hate it when I go shopping for clothes (no homo) the fukin' sellers start to swarm around... it's embarrassing enough for a grown man to shop for clothes and then these stupid bitches think I care what they recommend or value their "expertise"

FUKERS! LEAVE US ALONE WHEN WE DO OUR SHOPPING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What pisses me off the most is the little booths in the malls where the middle east people are selling their "wonder lotion". They walk in front of you and go "Can I ask you a question". My wife takes off now because this one nasty bitch blocked us and asked that and I said, "No, let me ask you a question, where is that stink coming from?"
They also have these massage booths in the malls, when the oriental massage lady asks if I would like a massage I reply "Happy ending included??". Again, she takes off before I reply.

That's the training at a car dealsership. Every customer coming on the lot is to be greeted ASAP and put under control. The results of every "up", as customers are called, are documented in a log. The objective is to close everyone coming in. A dealership isn't a mall store for you to browse and enjoy yourself. Its about selling you a car before someone else does. And nothing you say or do will ever change that.

These old school cheesy sales tactics don't work anymore in todays society. Last time I bought a new car I offered them 200 above dealer cost and got the car. This will only work on new cars. Go in informed tell them this is your offer and it's take it or leave it, PERIOD. There are too many other dealers out there that will take your offer.

cost or invoice? Unless it was a very low end model you probably mean invoice.

and yes, the buyer should be ready to walk out.

Invoice

You can't force someone to buying something if they don't want. Example, I went to two car dealers and both times I got the same approach, irritated the fuck out me, then we went to a third, a Volkswagon dealer, guy came out, introduced himself and proceded to say, go look around if you have any questions just let me know I'll be inside. He came back out about 15min later to see if we had any questions, we said yes, can we test drive this car? He got the keys, we drove (no pressure even while driving), an hour later, we have a car, he has a commission. THAT'S the way it should be!

You can't beat the dealer at their own game. They aren't doing shit for you unless there's money in it for them: profit on the car, lowballing your trade, marking up the finance rate, extended warranties, GAP insurance...reading an article on the internet on beating the dealer isn't going to help much. People get conned and rooked every minute of every day in car dealerships.

Only if YOU let them. I got turned down once and a week later they called and said they would except my offer. I had already bought a car by then and let them know. A friend of mine went to a dealership to buy a new car went in with a slip of paper with his offer told them he was a very busy guy (he's a Dr) was very polite told them if they couldn't accept his offer no hard feeling. They said no he turned to leave and they did everything they could to try and get him back. They knew it was a fair offer, but they thought they could play games. This was a 80K car and when they found out he was a DR they knew they screwed up. If you are a good saleman you know when to shut up and you know when someone is serious and to take the offer. Not only did they lose him but his future business and prob some of his friends.

Even worse are the waiters at upmarket steakhouses in the USA. The introduce themselves, fawn over you, ask you about your family, always have a connection with whatever part of the world you come from.

I was in one back in May and our waiter actually wasn't that bad (probably because I was cold towards him) but the young "italian" waiter serving the couple next to us was an annoying greebo bastard. He identified that the older couple (in for their anniversary) were italian looking so milked it for all he was worth. I swear he was talking to them for more than half the time they were there. Their eyes were glazed over as he spoke about his grandparents coming from the old country. Unfortunately they asked him his name and the old man pointed out that his name was actually spanish and "was he sure he wasn't mexican?". Ha ha, it was amusing to see him make up a story to explain that one.

Then the wife's steak was too undercooked and was sent back, the waiter had to go into fawning overdrive to compensate for that. What a bunch of complete dicks trying to get a big tip from getting diners to like them.
Made for an entertaining dinner mind you. Just wish the old guy had told him to fuck off and leave them in peace.

You might have a high net worth/income, but you're fucking yourself buying a car new from a dealer. You can find the exact same car in perfect condition with less than 5k miles for much cheaper.

I can't bring myself to absorb that depreciation that comes from pulling the car off the lot.

I was serious about the watch, but about TA, this what I've learned over the years working with wealthy self-made people. You don't boast about your wealth and don't make fun of people who have less. THOSE are the people who 9 out of 10 times don't have a pot to piss in.
