Rather than how much below MSRP(Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price) you should expect to pay for a MH, what percentage of profit above Dealer Invoice do you think a Dealer should make?
If you were a dealer and had an investment of over $500K in your business, and overhead what is a fair profit after all expenses?
Explain.
That's all well and good if you knew invoice. Do you know or have access to these numbers? If not your basis point is MSRP
And what business is it yours to know what invoice is to determine what a seller should make as profit? Do know the invoice for everything you buy? If you owned a business would you want all of your customers to know what your costs or profit was for your business?
I am struggling to figure out what your point actually is. Are you an advocate for dealers? I'm sorry I am not following or you are being a bit obtuse. If any consumer did not do their level best to get the best deal possible, they either have a lot of money or they are irresponsable. no consumer is ever going to know what the dealer profit margin is. I'm sorry I just don't get your point. MSRP and historical data on sales of like models is really the only tangable numbers you have. Are you suggesting we take the dealers point of view into perspective?
Explain.
