Discount Tire Store Scam? In store vs online prices

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 23 ก.ค. 2021
  • Shopping the new ‪@DiscountTire‬ store. My trucks originally had 245/70/17 tires. I found the price of $87 on their website. It’s funny how what you find online is not what you get when you get to the store.
    I do appreciate the fact that he gave me the lower price since it did show they had my size in stock.

    Your salesman gave you 14 dollars off each tire to keep you safe in the same size your truck comes with. He’s taking care of you instead of letting you leave on unsafe tires that don’t meet the correct load requirements of your truck. Nothing wrong with that

    I'm a salesman for discount tire. And let me be completely transparent for you. He's not trying to rip you off nor do we think customers are stupid. We understand tires are expensive especially for trucks even when we have a better discount than y'all. So he's not trying to scam you. He's just trying to sell to you. It's their job. Quoted 4 tires to sell an hour. So it's not how much he sells you it for but for units. ALSO big thing we don't get payed commission so we dgaf for your money. We just want to sell you units so it's actually easy to talk us down in price so long as you buying tires from us. THATS THE TRUTH, their you go

      ​@1987Miketyson 100% true. Salesman are given 100% control to alter the price within reason. Discount Tire is the largest tire retailer in the country and has the best bargaining power with manufacturers on price. The move to from installation to sales is the most scrutinized promotion at the store level in the company until you get to higher management.

    Inventory is tricky. I try my best to encourage customers to order their tires online so the tires go on hold for them. It always suck when they show up saying they want certain tires and it showed in stock on the website. But tires sell very fast and often they’re sold before they can come in. So ordering online for one guarantees you the tires and you get priority as an appointment to get in and out within 45 minutes.

    I’m a manager at DT as well def not ripping you off he was helping you out cause that’s what we do. No commission we just want you guys leaving safer than when you arrived and price is never an option our prices start out at what the manufacturer wants for them then we can work it out from there if price is a problem

  • @CooperWitzberger

    You’re complaining about $128 a tire? Average is like $180 for anything good like Yokohama or Continental, even upward of $200. Don’t complain about us because of your own situation. I work here and can’t afford anything after my discount, it’s not because it’s expensive. It’s because YOU, and I myself am broke. Just bite the bullet.
    Anything between 235/40R19 and 275/70R17 is going to be over $1,000 for a full set if it’s good and safe. We sell cheap tires, but we don’t recommend them because they perform poorly and are made with minimum requirements. We recommend the safest product.
    On top of that, we’re salesman. Even though we don’t make commission, we still want what’s best for YOU because it keeps you coming back, and making us look better to our company. Have fun spending 3+ hours at Costco, Les Schwab, Pep Boys, Big O or Walmart.

They made me a life long customer the first set I bought got a screw in it the very next day, went back they said unable to fix it due to sidewall puncture, slapped a new tire on and resold me the road hazzard. No questions, accusations, or BS just great customer service always for YEARS!

    I've been getting the run around for tire prices by various tire chains for years. You find the cheap tire price online, order and make an appointment for install. Get a text or phone call that the cheap tires are no longer made/unavailable/whatever. And you are forced to either buy the more expensive tires or start the process with a different tire chain. Doesn't matter if it's expensive places like Firestone or Goodyear or "discount" places like Pep Boys or Tire Kingdom. They have ALL pulled this online bait and switch on me over the years. 😒
