Have you ever been turned off by an Arrogant Dealer? Thoughts


I have and it's extremely disappointing

dealers definetly make strong judgments fairly rapidly. The last dealer i went to I happened to drive my bmw m5 that day. I purposely parked it as far away as possible; i didnt see any cars in the front lot and didnt want attention so i parked in in the rear lot

Well, they saw it on camera and kept asking me about it. It’s a nice car but its not like its a McLaren. Didnt matter i was treated like a king.

I think a dealer will judge you right away by how your dressed, how serious you sound, what you drive, your age, ext

if you come in dressed like a slob and you say your "just looking" they may not like that very much and may come off to you as arrogant 

This isnt just audio dealers this applies to specialty stores of high priced items in general

If you enter and it looks like you just want to pay as little as possible the owner might come off as Arrogant.

In the early spring I went to buy a pump for my bike. Just wanted a hand pump you know, looking to spend $20-30 bucks max. This guy had nothing cheaper than $120.. and acted like he was donald Trump and that you were wasting his time. Definitely talked down a lot. I simply took my bike to the gas station and filled up there....

These small shops rely on high revenue/high margin sales and get frustrated when they think you arnt trying to spend "real" money
