I cannot believe that nothing, NOTHING has changed in this b.s. business... I did this for six months about 27 yrs. ago but could not deal with the predatory sales people and how they try to convince you that customers are uninformed naive children that need you to hold their hand when buying a car. I had too much integrity to take advantage of people like that so..... one day I just walked out and never looked back. The plus side for me in this was.... when I do go looking for a car, I simply tell them that I was in the business and they back off because they know that "I know the game". So something good came out of this for me. love this video. I worked with a bunch of Steve Richards types....... too many.

Hola!! I sold 40 units during my 4 month sales career. 12...15 years ago. The dealer ship was pushing 300 sold units in a month. The units per month was at 287 when I got their. So...to reach the goal...they lowered prices to the point that our commissions got smaller. So... every morning was a mandatory 30 class on how to screw customers over. Every day this shit. I got a MSRP statement for a new vehicle a week ago...going through a locater for the vehicle. The statement is full of shit to this day!!

That is a great opening. Smart and honest. The car dealership pays msrp and it’s the add ons is where they make their profit. They don’t go lower and they don’t make slot in the car itself. It’s easy to pick apart this guy after seeing the video and having hours to break it down and tear it apart. Which is pretty easy to do but in the moment I don’t see what he is wrong with trying to earn a living. My dealership sold me an experience insurance policy and my BMW. About two months later I tore up two wheels, 19 inch highly expensive and I laid. Nothing to get them replaced at no cost even for the larbor. I could be more thankful for him to sell my the policy and so get around 79 percent back at the end of my lease.

Car dealers do not pay MSRP when they buy a car. MSRP stands for Manufacturers Suggested RETAIL Price. Car dealers buy cars from the manufacturer at a WHOLESALE price which is less than MSRP. Thats where they make their profit, on the difference less any discount they may offer plus all the money they make on add ons, financing, additional warranties and or maintenance contracts etc. In many cases even with the discount they give off the MSRP price, they will end up making a lot more than the difference between that price and their cost due to all those other avenues of profit. On average most car dealers make. Higher percentage of profit on used car sales because they low ball customers for their trade in’s. I have bought many cats over the years and would never sit and listen to the BS that this car salesman is throwing at his customers. He is the reason car salespeople have such a bad reputation and what people hate to deal with them. They don’t listen to what you want. They try to tell you what you should do that will make them more money regardless of it is beneficial for you. When they start doin this and really just tying to wear you down, LEAVE, WALKOUT.

My last car purchase about 4 months ago came down to the trade value. What I did was to get a trade value for my car from Carvana. Sight unseen they were coming to pick the car up etc. That amount was more than Kelly and some others. I had that offer on my phone. When the Dealer came back hemming and hawing about the trade value being to low, I whipped out my phone and showed him the quote from Carvana. About 2 minutes later, they agreed to match Carvana's offer. This was about 2k more than they were originally offering. Mind you, my car was in good shape with no damage. Anyway, I used the offer from Carvana and the threat to walk and take their offer before buying from them. Deal done. Very simple. Deal took all of 30 minutes. Although they did make me wait to finalize with the Lie-nance Manager. Shut him down too and that only took about 10 minutes. Stick to your guns.

Sent me to the finance office and when I told them I have the cheque to pay for the car. The FO asked me if they can buy my loan. Asked what was the interest rate and was 4.9%. Well let me write the cheque and I will be on my way. Three days later the check engine comes on. Went back to the dealership and was told just drive it around with out any explanation why it came on? Left and they never saw the car again even for maintenance. 😂

I honestly thought it was some sort of parody about car salesmen, like an SNL sketch or something. It's sad to think that people get fleeced by guys like this.

"He's quite thin skinned and defensive if you're critical of anything he says." -- Glock Guy So was the Finance Mgr. at my Jeep dealership when the paper he handed me with all those usual "extras" (5-6 of them) he was trying to sell me. I slid it back to him saying I looked them all over (in seconds as I was anticipating them) and I wanted NONE of those things. His demeanor changed immediately and he went silent -- NOT a happy "friendly" Finance Mgr after that. And I wasn't seeing him because I was getting dealership financing -- I was using my own lender (USAA Bank) -- it was, as usual, just the last stop in the process so I could buy the extended warranty and other items. No thanks. Still, they DID rip me off big-time on my trade-in although it WAS almost right-on what CarMax and KBB Cash Offer would have given me (no, couldn't sell to a private party at that time) but at least I got a great out-the-door price on my new vehicle. So, it COULD have been a whole lot worse... -- BR

We settled the transaction with my writing a check and the dealership delivering the car and papers. I didn’t lie, but I also did not disabuse the salesman of the idea that we would be financing the car.

Hi Kevin I recently visited a dealership to test drive a new vehicle. I have been watching your videos and I walked around the vehicle to inspect it like they do when you want to trade a vehicle in. I found 3 scratches on a new vehicle not only did I find them I pointed them out to the salesman. Know if someone wanted to buy this vehicle without seeing your videos they would have bought vehicle without inspecting it. I know in the past I have done this. But God was watching out for me the vehicle I bought lasted for 17 years. I really enjoyed that car. Oh the salesman said that the vehicle came off the truck that way when it was delivered to the dealership. Why wasn't the vehicle in the paint shop instead of on their lot to be sold to the unsuspecting victim.

Then the turn over happened and they manager tries telling me "we are giving you $10k off the price" I said NOOOOOO Chevy is giving me $6000 youre giving me $4000.

I told the salesman I would pay 16,300, and I had a trade in that I wanted $6,000 for. I told him these numbers are not negotiable and I will not sit and wait in their little room, and he has 5 minutes to make it happen or I am down the road.

There's an old saying that goes: "Well, it sure beats a poke in the eye with a sharp stick." This would not apply to any car buying experience that involved Steve Richards. Given a choice, I'd opt for the stick.

WOW! I couldn't even finish watching this video! However, I did give a thumbs up and sub'd to the channel because this is reality. I'm about to purchase new Prius, but the longest I stay in a dealership is 30-45 min. I'm upfront with the salesperson and show them they are being timed, and if they are upfront with me I "may" add more time. I'm a straight shooter and I expect the same no less. It would be this is what I want for my trade in...yes or no. Then we talk about prices at or lower than MSRP...yes or no, your answer will help me decide which dealer to go to next....then I walk, in fact I like walking it's good for your health and wallet....LOL!

I hear what you are saying but you are confusing appreciation/depreciation and equity. Paying down a car loan is absolutely increasing the owners equity regardless of the appreciation or depreciation, unless the asset depreciates to zero or below (a liability). The vehicle itself will not appreciate, which is what you are saying but the owners ownership share will increase as the lien is paid down thus building equity.

Regardless of what someone personally thinks of Steve, his videos are informative from "his" perspective and both "sides" can benefit from them. Heck, just for the entertainment value of them I like to watch, and I never quite understood the personal attacks on him. It's not like he's ripping off the people in the video OR the ones watching them, who seem to love to throw vitriol his way.

Went out looking for a new truck in Santa Cruz California. Found a sales man that sounded just like Mr. Richards. Couldn’t get him to focus on the issues important to me. Had nothing else to do that day so I drug out my visit to that dealership for 5 hours. Once he told me I could not get the truck I wanted for the price I demanded I told him that was fine so let’s go look at a different one. He started the same thing once again over the price of my second choice. Once I told him I really didn’t like the second truck I looked at I suggested we walk out to the lot and see if we could look for my third favorite truck. He caught on that I was jerking him off and things started getting nasty. Told him what I thought of his B.S. and walked. Two days later I stopped back at his dealership to show him the deal I got an a brand new truck from a competitor. If your so proud of yourself Mr. Richards maybe you could disclose the name of the dealership you work at. I’m currently looking for a new truck!

I will acknowledge and can appreciate that Steve is very nimble and adept. That client was a lost puppy. Very little pushback except for the trade-in. Steve zeroed in on that and the client followed. Steve was having fun. I have to imagine his contingency was to “surrender” the trade from the equation if it made the client feel like he “won” a battle, and move forward with the car purchase in a dominant victory with no real combat at all.

They don't state it outright but the 18k is at best the private party value. You touched on my biggest issue with this video. Kevin was so focused on mocking Steve he ended up presenting a flawed analysis that lacks critical thinking. It's a role play, so there isn't as much discussion and back and forth because there are other assumed details the role players know. Here's the easy version: You want 18k because you can sell it for that. We want to give you 16k. Right now, we would sell it for 20k in good condition, but we all know cars depreciate. In 30 days it will be a 19.5k car. In 60 days, 19.25k. Plus everyone wants a discount so I'll have to fight just to get the same 18k you would. Now you can sell your car as is. I cant. The law says I have to do a safety inspection and replace and worn "safety" parts so I'm taking a risk that you need tie rod ends, shocks, brakes, or other things I can't see without throwing it on a lift. I also have to fix the bumper snd detail it because I can't have scratched up dirty cars on the lot or people will think we sell junk here. I have to eat that cost. You have the same problem. You have to sell your car as it depreciates. You list it St that 18k clean private party it better be super clean or you'll be the one trying to fight for that profit. Plus if this is your primary car, you're adding miles the whole time. We're 2k apart, less than that when you consider expenses and the tax break, let's sign now and you can spend that time with your family instead of strangers on Craigslist who want your car for 16k because of the scratched bumper. Of course, it's just as likely the customer's 18k is pulled straight out of their butt or US what they saw a dealer selling a similar car for.
