My approach to buying a car (from a dealer), has always been to get the price over the phone, and say that you’ll be coming with a bank/cashiers cheque for that exact amount and not bringing any other means of payment with you. If they try to add any fees you walk out: you have no means to pay them.
- ksaj 4y agoWhere I live, the banks won't give you a draught without the recipient's name on it. So you leave the dealership with cashier check in hand and then what? You have to go back and cash it yourself before getting a new one and heading off to the next dealership I guess, because you can't use it anywhere else.
- olliej 4y agoOh, I get the dealer's name (for checking purposes) as well - because yeah, a bank cheque with no specified recipient would be like carrying a similar amount of cash :-O
