They call around and get the customer the best price. Then the advise the cusomer of this. If by chace the client goes to a dealer that either:- a)has a car in stock they need to get rid of (been in yard too long) b)have low sales for the month c)can see making the money back on service. They will sell at a loss, yes less they the dealer paid for the car. It has been done before. So this is out of control of the broker. Parawolf your were lucky. Unless you got several quotes from a range of dealers, then that's another story.

$54 dollars is around 1% of the money you want to spend. Cheap imho for a starting point when shopping for a new car
Why would you take any quote as gospel, common sense surely would tell you to do a little leg work of your own when you are spending 50k Can the CarBroker get the same price from the same yard on the same car? I'd be interested in knowing Maybe as a few others have alluded to, Gregorys Ford had the exact car you wanted that they wanted to get rid off for whatever reason. I don't know but over $54 I think you were harsh, but I guess it does serve as a warning to other consumers to do alot of shopping around weather thru brokers or privately.

One makes you pay for them to use your property for their own greater benefit while reducing service levels while the other gets paid to help you spend money/ purchase goods.
