Straight deal price?

Probably a silly question and I should know the answer already

When a car is advertised as Straight deal price what exactly does it mean?

Basically that its the actual figure, and not a bumped up figure and allowing for trade-in against it etc
A lot of dealers will have a figure with some extra percentage on top and it allows them room to negotiate and *seem* like they are allowing you a good price for your car, when in fact all they are doing is adding their bit to play around with and making your car seem like it's worth more

Hope that explains it well enough! I know what I mean, but not sure if I've explained it right. Haha

Great thanks.

So it doesn’t effect anything like warranty, etc

Think I had it in my head it meant price without warranty or comeback. Basically you make sure your happy before you buy, then once you have it it’s your problem if anything goes wrong

Your thinking of trade sale or sold as seen. These are not the same. Straight deal normally means the no trade-in price.

Does that mean they want to sell without taking a trade in?

Yes, that's what they mean by straight deal price, that they aren't taking a trade-in at that price
