I know that this is not the typical sales tactic but felt I had to share it.
Probably more common than you would want to believe. All a game of how they can confuse you with numbers. And how willing they are to deal. Some better than others, both ways.
When shopping we knew what model and floor plan we wanted. Went to nearest dealer with that model and got a price of $40,000. But looking under it, there was rust covering every inch of metal, on a new unit. He offered to sandblast and repaint, but that didn't appeal to me.

He said, OK, in that case my price is $39,000!
