It's the second sticker that torks me off. I was at a Mustang show a couple of years back and a local dealer had a couple of new Shelby's on display with an 'Adjusted Market Value' sticker with a $25,000 markup on it. That was almost like paying for both a Mustang GT and the Shelby, but only get to take one home . Rolling Eyes

I still see second stickers on standard cars as well. Anyone paying over sticker is crazy. I am surprised that banks will even finance anything over MSRP.

The manufacturer usually will suggest a list price, but once you arrive at the store the price is what it is, and barring some coupon or discount card or rebate, that's it.


This is simply not true. You can always ask for a lower price. The manager at a retail store can give you a price break and often does. I have gotten appliances at below list price. I have gotten electronics below list price. The item's cost really needs to be substantial ($500-$1000).

You've just allowed yourself to be trained to not to ask the store if that is the best they can do. On big ticket items, they have wiggle room.
