Dealer advertised price was a mistake, won’t honor
im sure this will bring lots of debate. But I wanted to get some info from some one that might have experience with this issue. Found a 2018 raptor listed for $63,575. Called dealer and they said it was a mistake and they could not sell it to me at that price. Sticker is $69k and they said they should have it listed for $79k. About 30 minutes later they fixed the ad on autotrader to display $79k. Sells rep called me back and said they would sell it to me for $72k. I told them no way. I’m in Texas, Is there any law that states they should honor advertised price??? I don’t want to get bbb or consumer affairs involved if I don’t have to. I do understand the raptor is a special vehicle and most dealers sell them above sticker. However there are lots of them on lots right now so I figured 10%off sticker isn’t a far shot. Keep in mind I printed add prior to them changing price. Thoughts???? |
most of them have a disclaimer at the bottom of the site relieving them of any liability in cases like this.

Not sure what you are wanting to hear. , , , , , I already spoke to a friend of mine that is an attorney. He does state I can get what I want. However been thru litigation for business reasons in the past. It’s not fun and to long of a process. Rather move on. It’s my fault, I titled it wrong. |
