Been surfing for another FD. I find it hilarious the way they use “car salesman speak” and end up turning me off.

Best one is where they say: “This car won’t last long!”

It may give them a warm and fuzzy; but it suggests something else to me!

Any other incredibly stupid things you've heard a seller say?

 

Here's another one..

There have been so many calls on this car...or a guy is coming back tonight for the 2nd time to make a decision...

 

Recently i've heard the..."make an offer i've had 2 serious ones already" I'm almost certain 2 months later the car is still garaged unsold, and hiding from the snow

 

My least favourite is:

"Interior/paint is in good condition for a 10-year-old car."

I have no idea what this even means. Some 10-year-old cars can look like new, others can look like a homeless guy lived in them.

Most amusing threat is:

"If somebody does not buy this car I am going to put it on eBay."

Given that the sub blue book selling prices on eBay are often $5k+ less than the price the seller is asking for, I am never sure what to make of the threat.

 

I've sold a lot of FDs, I always love the guys that come look at the car and tell me I'll think about it" only to call me back some time later and say "I'll buy it, it was the best one I looked at", I love telling them it is sold! That has happened quite a few times.

 

I recently seen this ad LOL

That thing can't outrun a viper in the 1/4 mile. Can it???
