April 18, 201115 yr #21 Did you put the deposit on a credit card ??? If you did.. Ring the card and put a hold on the payment. Then ring the dealer and ask for the sales manager and tell him the deal, and that you have put a hold on it. Tell him you put the deposit on the car as is as it was displayed and that is what you signed off on. I am taking it's second hand. If it was new they could do this but 2nd hand Nope cant be done.This happens a bit and they get away with it. But they cant.There will always be cars for sale and idiot dealers and fools that get sucked in. Don't be one of them.
April 18, 201115 yr #22 Author This car is brand new, and yes I put the deposit on my credit card. I'm going to threaten them with ACCC action if I don't get it for the original price. I think that's the best idea so far. Thank you everyone for your input, it is much appreciated, I'm only a young fella, so I appreciate your collective knowledge.Sam.
April 18, 201115 yr #23 The car was presented as driven/ seen for the price YOU ARE IN THE RIGHT . go get 'em champ.Let us know how you get on If you don't get what you wan't from that exhausive list you have thought up. Cancel the payment on the deposit as XR09 sugggests.
April 19, 201115 yr #25 Author Good news. I called the ACCC they were on my side, I then threatened the dealership and they caved.The sales guy even whined to me on the phone that the 500 bucks was coming out of his own pocket.... Can u believe that? Trying to make me feel sorry for him.Anyway I get the car Thursday for the Sale price. Thanks everyone.
