This review was posted by a deceitful car dealer who is trying to harm my brand new dealership. He posted his ad on Craigslist and stated he was a private party. I contacted him to try and buy his car. My limited side of the conversation went like this, "Hello. I saw your ad on Craigslist for your car. Will you take $? cash right now for your car?" He then informed me he was a dealer and started screaming obscenities at me and then hung up on me.
Ok, so first of all, the guy lied on Craigslist and said he was a private party so he wouldn't have to pay the $5 Craigslist fee charged to auto dealers. After further research, I found out he had listed dozens of cars on Craigslist as a private party thereby stealing hundreds of dollars from Craigslist. Craigslist provides mainly free services to private parties without those annoying advertisements. Craigslist earns money from auto dealers and some other fees charged to businesses. Without that income, Craigslist would not be available to the vast majority of users for free. This guy, and thousands of other people like him are out and out thieves.
Second, if he had identified himself as a dealer, I would have never contacted him. I know what dealers pay to buy cars and they are in it for a profit. I only contact private party owners who might be desperate to sell their cars and need cash immediately. My services are not for most people but I do provide a needed service for a certain niche. By the way, I pay more for used cars than you would get by trading in your car to a dealer. Don't trade in your car to a dealer!!
Finally, so what if I offered a low-ball price? If you're not interested, then say no and hang up. But why the screaming obscenities and now trying to get my phone number blacklisted thereby trying to harm my business and harm my ability to make a living and provide for my little girl?
There are evil people in this world, and this guy is a poster child for wickedness.
Wannabe car dealer dooshbag idiot. Calls and harasses you regarding you car ad on Craigslist or Auto Trader. Makes insane lowball offers for 1/2 what the vehicle is worth. Won't quit calling, very rude jerk. Block this dooshbags number.

So he said no once and probably twice maybe three times? Then according to him you keep calling him back. Since you call your self a "dealer" and complain about tIs guys listing, I wonder if your vehicle are listed as private party or dealer. Oh I'm going to Google your number now to see if i can find any craigslist postings from you. I hope their listed as dealer.
I never said anything about calling him back repeatedly. Where did you read that information? Hmmm.... For the record, yes, I pay for my listings. If you are willing to be a liar to avoid paying the minimal $5 for your listing, then you're willing to screw a customer for hundreds or thousands of dollars to trick them into buying a piece of junk.
Finally, why don't you proudly list your name, phone number, and dealership? I mean, if I'm a scumbag, then you should be willing to proudly promote your business as a beacon of fortitude so desperate customers will flock to your services. Come on, let the world know what a an upright person you are and what an honest dealership you run.
I'll be glad to share your company information here and on other social media if I don't see you volunteering it in the near future. Or, you could just be honest and admit you showed a lack of professionalism and apologize for stealing from Craigslist.
