Tiffin Dealers that negotiate pricing on new Units

Getting a bit testy around here. HA
If a true MSRP is being used as the starting point, that amount would be established by the manufacturer. That would also mean each dealership would know what that MSRP would be. How each independent business owner relates that to selling price is up to each independent business owner.
What I don't understand is how some people expect a greater discount when paying "cash". Taking a wire or ACH for a full amount is quick (that is how we fund dealerships) but why that is worth an additional discount is beyond me.

Ken is right

Financing at current rates makes more sense than cash

Let your cash make more money in an investment

The idea is with cash they have the full amount to reinvest right away, as opposed to waiting ten years. I think most don’t think the bank gives the dealer the full amount. So they are reimbursing the bank and not the dealer.

The dealer gets the full contract amount in 24 to 48 hours of signing the papers. Besides, when checks are involved, most banks hold them for several business days. Especially big ones. Yes, even certified funds can be held to be certain they clear. Cash very rarely means actual cash. Besides, if someone pays more than $9,999 in real $100's the dealer has a bunch of paperwork to do (IRS). "Cash" is generally a check or maybe a wire. Wires are available instant to the dealer. Wire is how we pay dealers, private sellers or paying off liens. Dealers do make more on a contract than cash or wire, that is just a fact.
