I ultimately negotiated about $7k more off and I hate negotiating. So I'm going to say no. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-costco-the-best-price-on-cars#post-2885232 Tue, 21 May 2019 22:28:04 +0000 yin 2885232@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I’ve used edmunds.com multiple times for myself and family members. Just enter the make and model of the car you want and zip code. It’ll list local dealers, and you can have those dealerships contact you with a quote. No haggling involved. The internet sales manager will contact you through email, and sometimes you can use the quote against competing dealers to get a lower price. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-costco-the-best-price-on-cars#post-2885201 Tue, 21 May 2019 17:04:52 +0000 gotkimchi 2885201@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LadyDi: SUPER ANNOYING </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-costco-the-best-price-on-cars#post-2885197 Tue, 21 May 2019 15:56:35 +0000 LadyDi 2885197@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@gotkimchi: I can't believe he wouldn't give you a price over email! So annoying! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-costco-the-best-price-on-cars#post-2885183 Tue, 21 May 2019 14:57:55 +0000 gotkimchi 2885183@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Corduroy: I just got the Costco price from my preferred dealer and I’m not happy with it - we bought the same car from them for less before lol. We’ll see what happens. I’m definitely contacting multiple dealers </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-costco-the-best-price-on-cars#post-2885175 Tue, 21 May 2019 14:42:43 +0000 Corduroy 2885175@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@gotkimchi: I also beat the Costco price by contacting the internet sales manager at multiple dealerships. It was super easy but we live in a high density area do I had several dealerships to choose from. I contacted 7. If one wouldn't give me a price I would tell them my lowest and ask if they could beat that. Many told me I would never get the good deal I was offered. I was nice and said I'd be back back in touch if the deal didn't come through. In the end I got the good deal - and even had another dealership offering me $100 less when he heard I was in the parking lot of his competitor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-costco-the-best-price-on-cars#post-2885165 Tue, 21 May 2019 13:20:38 +0000 KT326 2885165@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@graceandjoy: @gotkimchi: we bought our truck using a broker and it was the easiest purchase we've ever done! My husband was very specific in what he wanted and how much he wanted to pay. It took the broker a few weeks to find the truck but we got a great deal! Once we settled on the price (most communication was done via email with one or two phone calls), all we had to do was go sign the paper work. We were in and out in 15 minutes. It was so nice not dealing with car salesman and the haggling that goes with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-costco-the-best-price-on-cars#post-2885163 Tue, 21 May 2019 13:00:05 +0000 gotkimchi 2885163@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LadyDi: I tried emailing a dealer and they wouldn’t give me a price via email 🙄</p> <p>@LadyDi: yah that doesn’t seem like much at all</p> <p>@graceandjoy: I’ve never heard of that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-costco-the-best-price-on-cars#post-2885162 Tue, 21 May 2019 12:55:33 +0000 graceandjoy 2885162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A lot of people in my area go to brokers and apparently (tho not 100%) they get better deals than dealerships without the haggling, plus they will take your car and drop off your new car too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-costco-the-best-price-on-cars#post-2885161 Tue, 21 May 2019 12:51:06 +0000 LadyDi 2885161@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just bought a new car and through Costco it was only $750 off invoice. We got more than that off by negotiating and contacting a few dealerships. That being said I hate haggling and DH handled all of that. He did it all entirely through email, it was nice to not have to call or visit a bunch of dealerships. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-costco-the-best-price-on-cars#post-2885150 Tue, 21 May 2019 11:41:22 +0000 Beebeeholiday 2885150@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wouldn't say it's the absolute best, but if you want a decent price and don't want to deal with a back-and-forth with the salesman or manager, then yes.</p> <p>We bought a car two years ago and were going to go through the Costco Auto Buying Program (my husband is in upper management for Costco), but my husband is a haggler and we got a much better deal by talking it out ourselves. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-costco-the-best-price-on-cars#post-2885148 Tue, 21 May 2019 11:17:31 +0000 gotkimchi 2885148@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Yoyo: Thank you that is exactly what I was wondering </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-costco-the-best-price-on-cars#post-2885147 Tue, 21 May 2019 11:06:24 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 2885147@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The best, no. Solid/good price, yes. Basically, if you hate haggling and are willing to pay a bit more because you hate haggling, go for it.</p> <p><a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/finance-savemoney/is-costco-the-best-place-to-buy-a-car/ar-BBMWDgE" rel="nofollow">https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/finance-savemoney/is-costco-the-best-place-to-buy-a-car/ar-BBMWDgE</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-costco-the-best-price-on-cars#post-2885125 Tue, 21 May 2019 08:26:22 +0000 gotkimchi 2885125@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For anyone that’s bought a car through Costco is that really the best price? We’re looking at buying a second car and I’m wondering if that’s how we should do it </p>
