Dealer backs out on NO RESERVE GTR on eBay.

[00Civic]

So I came across this on a couple forums.. long story short, a guy from a 350z forum won a 2009 GTR Premium on an ebay auction for $55,100 and the dealer is refusing to sell it to him because they forgot to set a reserve price.

It is also on Jalopnik, digg, etc. It's stirring up big time. All this has been happening in the last 2 days , and it's still going on.

I saw it on the central ga forums and I also posted it up to a local forum up here in NY. LULZ. Can't wait to see who comes out on top!

No one should do business with that dealership. They are not to be trusted.

He's lawyered up now and so it should be a good outcome...the dealeship made quite possibly the biggest mistake

[Elbow]

Yeah by not letting him get one of the stupidest cars we will ever know. $50K+ for a shit Nissan? LAUGHING MY FUCKING ASS OFF.

[silverZ33]

Shit Nissan? How do you figure?

It's heavy, it lacks any real feel, it's fast, but it costs too much for a quick pig with no sole.

Well regardless of if it's a good car or not, this guy is still getting screwed here. I hope he wins.

[Elbow]

Well it's dumb in my opinion, all the time and money he's spending can't he just pay the extra $4k they wanted for the car?

You must aspire to sell cars some day. LoL. I'm not even talking shit, I am genuinely astonished you are taking that viewpoint.

[silverZ33]

It's the principle of the whole thing...The dealership needs to burn

I mean it's eBay though, people do that ALL the time, the guy needed what $4k literally to meet their price? If he can't afford $4k he shouldn't even look at buying a GTR as upkeep is $$$. Not saying the dealer is right, but I think he's going to have more of a headache in the end than if he just paid the extra amount.

I'd be a killer salesmen I can sell anything.

Cool post.

[Elbow]

Dealer just said they will honor the auction, so I guess that's that!

I wouldn't ever buy a GTR but saying it isn't worth 50k is jutht thilly.

Sorry that was my accent.

[Brett]

The dealership could be sued cant they? Ebay rules state its a contract

[Elbow]

eBay would go and protect the dealer I can promise you that.

[Brett]

Then Ebay sucks to

[Elbow]

They do suck, they're corrupt as hell.
