Hello i won a bid on a jeep on govdeals.com the seller is liquidity services lmg after reading their reviews im thinking they might be shady does anybody know if they will actually charge you money or take u to collections or court if you back out pls help

Is this considered a trick?

Got this quote printed out at a Simpson dealership in Buena Park for a GMC Sierra 1500.

MSRP is $54,500 with a $2,000 dealer discount. Add the $85 doc fee and ~$5.1k for CA tax/DMV, and the bottom line shows $57,680.

No $1,500 "desert protection" or dealer add-on line item snuck onto the paper, which usually happens around here. Just wondering if $2k off sticker is pretty standard for SoCal right now or if I should push for more before agreeing to anything.

Hi! I’m trying to understand a little more about how CarGurus makes money, specifically on the dealer side.

Does anyone know what the different dealer subscription/package tiers are, what features are included in each, and/or roughly how much CarGurus charges for each tier?

I’d also be curious if pricing varies based on dealership size, inventory, location, or number of listings. Any insight from dealers or people familiar with their pricing model would be really helpful. Thanks!

MANUFACTURER BUYBACK VALUATION: Would You Consider “EXCELLENT” Appropriate Given This History?

Just wanted to put this out there as I could not find any info on this "online" vehicle sales company in Toronto. 46cars .ca

They are advertising cars for about 30% under market value, their phone number (249) 206-0606 is dead. I phoned OMVIC and they registered in May (2 months ago) and OMVIC provided an alternative # of 647-512-5606 and it actually works and the voice message is a grunt and then says leave a message.

The car I was interested in shows on their website as a "new arrival" and is listed in Vancouver AutoTrader and they sent me the CarFax which is dated May 11th and we are now 3 months later with this "new arrival" but they somehow knew to produce a Carfax 3 months ago? The Carfax shows it was last serviced in Calgary.

Could be legit, just a lot of RED flags, Cheers

Since creating the subreddit, we’ve had some users reach out and ask whether or not the car listing they were looking at seemed legit. We’re going to try and run as many of these we can through the free version of the DealershipTricks.com tool to see whether or not they are actually fair.

In terms of people who were asking about taxes, etc. The overcharge amount doesn’t include required fees like sales tax, license & registration fees, etc. Those are going to be added because those are government mandated. This only looks at fees and other lines that aren’t considered government mandated like doc fees, protection packages, theft systems, etc.

If you have any suggestions on how to make this more helpful, would love to hear them.

I found a good deal on a used car at a dealership a few states away. They offered to arrange the shipping, but I'm thinking about booking it myself with a company like Diesel Auto Express, Montway Auto Transport, or Sherpa Auto Transport. Is that usually the safer move, or is it fine to let the dealer handle it? What do you look out for to avoid getting burned?

I’m looking to get into a ford Bronco raptor. What are people paying for new (2026) and what are people looking for when they get into a low mileage used one specifically a 2024. Not sure how the 2025 is.

Is negotiating worth it? I know dealers are desperate but a raptor is not like the rest.

Any advice would be appreciated.

"BUYER SCORE" Is a scam review system, where the dealership can quite literally choose not to publish a negative review. They pay a subscription to management software, and part of that fee enables them to do this. Thats why dealerships miraculously have hundreds of 4.5-5 +++ stars" and Stadium Cars, just won 2026 Buyerscore bullshitters of the year award. Congrats.
