administrative fee
I was wondering if anybody knows what Honda dealers in Canada usually
charge for administrative fee. I don't know if this fee is dependent on models or dealers, but it may be comparable to salesperson's commission. |

In todays market, you'll probably be able to just tell them you won't pay it. It's one of those things that are easy to knock off if they really want to sell a car. -- Joe - Linux User #449481/Ubuntu User #19733 joe at hits - buffalo dot com "Hate is baggage, life is too short to go around pissed off all the time..." - Danny, American History X |
Re: administrative fee
Washington state just "approved" dealers raising theirs from $50 to $200 for
filing out all the paper work, they admit it is to help the poor dealers make ends meet...B.S. if they need to gouge the public for another $200 just to make ends meet, they need a new business plan, maybe just a new business...

This phrase is increasingly more common at dealers, maybe especially because internet sales and negotiating is cutting down on the bs that has long typified dealer haggling. "Out the door price" means you are not messing around, and neither are they. They will figure out how to deal with their admin etc. costs using the bottom line price that you accept. |

This is exactly what we did. Of course, we had the advantage of holding a checkbook. I said "we will write a check for this amount" and handed him a piece of paper. He took off, came back in a few minutes with a form that came out to twenty-seven cents less. That was for a 2007 Camry. The 2008 Fit was a little tougher, but the only things on there were the car, taxes and registration fees and, hmm, nothing else. Dealer prep? They have a sign that says "we don't charge for ..." and lists all the BS charges. -- - dillon I am not invalid The RMS Titanic sank on April 15th. US income taxes are due on April 15th. Coincidence?
