I was car hunting. Went to 5 different lots and was ignored at all . Why? Because apparently single women don't buy cars. Too bad for them. I had the money for a highend car. A lovely female salesperson ended up with my commission. I ended up with a great deal, especially after my tale of woe.
In my state in Australia, there were a couple of women who sold cars only to women. It was their biggest draw card. Great to deal with. I just cruised the second hand car lots, wrote down which ones seemed reasonable, and they helped me narrow it down and get the one I really wanted. Well within my budget. Didn't have to deal with patronizing, except in my first run through the car lots. Though to be fair to the salesmen, here in Australia women have been buying cars for decades. The attitude is, though, that we don't know our metal unless it's attached to a ring or a handbag.
@@Kayenne54 I'm an Australian. The disrespect from male salesperson's during my many years of car purchasing has been epic.

The last story reminds me of a saying. "Be careful of who you mess with, you never know what they're capable of." I usually replace 'mess' with a more salty word that begins with F.
Your personal story reminded me of one time I was working at a restaurant and had to deal with a mad customer. How the restaurant worked was that you take your order, walk down the line and pay. During this particular incident we were slammed with phone orders, and were in the middle of wrapping up a rush. This guy comes in with his family and takes his order, when he comes to pay, he drops some cash into our tip jar. As we were still trying to do catch up with the phone orders and the rest of the rush, it takes the usual amount of time for us to get to his order (about 10 minutes, which, during a rush, isn't bad). Anyways, he comes stomping up to us complaining that we are taking too long and how we have bad service. We apologized, tried to explain that we just had a rush and that his food was almost ready. When his food is ready, we bring it to him as was on the ticket. Moments later he comes stomping back, even more angry because we made a mistake with his daughter's order.... cross referencing what he says with the ticket, we find that we made it according to the ticket, but the ticket was wrong, not much we can do but offer to have the issue fixed. He demands that we refund his tip (something we can't really do, because he placed the tip in the tip jar and we don't touch it til the end of the day), then proceeds to reach into our tip jar to pull it out. All the while yelling at us for being shit at our jobs. Luckily my manager has a word with this guy, trying to get him to place the blame on him rather than us (great manager, and great friend). Luckily that appeases the guy enough to return to his table and not bother us again.
We went to a Honda dealership and negotiated 4k off the price. Mind you, it was near the end of the year so I'm sure they wanted to sell off their stock. And also, I didn't even come in to buy a car; I was getting my older Honda fixed up. It would have taken 2 hours, I was already looking for a car but wasn't really ready to move forward on it, and the guy nonchalantly suggested a test drive as I looked around their renovated show room. All in all, I'm sure whatever commission the old coot made was worth the negotiation for something spur-of-the-moment.
Well your event was pretty reasonable as it was for the last stock and you're not being an asshole about it. Being a nice customer will make a salesman goes above and beyond.
@@kos2919 This is true. A place I worked retail at had an unofficial policy that we don't give discounts to anyone who demands them. If you think you deserve one, you don't. If someone was nice and genuinely interested in the item, they'd be more likely to get a bit of a discount even though we didn't usually do them at all.
Loved the car story. My wife was a force to be encountered at a dealership. I needed to replace my older car, so we went to the dealer when they called with a used model I requested. We went in and took a test drive and decided to buy it. With the price firm, next was the rest of the pitch.. where my wife had an ace. On to finance. With our excellent credit they offered 15.9% for 48 months. My wife spoke up and simply said, "No, the finance will be 5.3% for 36 months." The look on the finance officer's face was priceless and about to get better. He explained the customer does not get to tell the dealer the terms of the finance. My wife spoke up again turning over the ace, "We are pre-approved at the credit union." "Do you wish to match or take a check?" Face of the finance officer "Priceless". Man I loved that woman. She did my taxes, set up investments, savings, etc. Unfortunately lost her to cancer. She will be hard to replace.
I was offered 9.9% financing at a dealership when they told me it was already "a dog of a deal" for them. They had dropped the price a few times because it was on the lot a LONG time. I only negotiated a measly $100 off a 20K deal. When I told them I had a better deal at my credit union, it became 6.9%. When my mom offered to finance it for 2.9%, it became 4.9%. I really enjoyed writing them a check for the full amount, knowing they wouldn't make anything on financing.

I find it very odd that the police think a former police officer's reporting of attempted extortion is a prank. Usually the word of a former officer is an edict from gawd, and they'll drop everything, even the morning's dozen doughnuts to assist. Most peculiar indeed.

I used to work retail. Sales associate. I wasn’t a manager nor a buyer, but was in charge of the department. Yet, apparently, I was to blame for not having the sizes of jeans in, the discontinuation of items, prices... etc. so many entitled people. So glad that I no longer work retail!
What I got from the last story is that even when it’s to help their own, even when there is proof, even when they have a solid trail to all involved, cops will not do their job.
IN the car salesman story, what was on the screen was the censored version. The version posted on reddit: the salesman's language was a lot more colorful, and justifiable.
Hey Fluffy! I worked for Honda too, only motorcycles not cars. Title clerk so I really didn't deal with customers, thankfully. Thanks for another great video!
To bad the cops decided to do their job and pick up Donny. OP's dad & uncle could have brought him in all black & blue...lol Cop's: Why is he all messed up? Dad & Unc: He tripped.....like a lot. Cops: Sounds good to me.
Proud of that car salesman! Hat tricks are hard- especially with entitled brats! He stood his ground defending his child/himself- got the guy to pay extra- got a hat trick- and got some good wisky too. Not only that but stayed professional when the guy came back for it!?! Hell ya that guy sounds like my dad!
@@nikkiofthevalley ya car lot lingo is Abit odd. Only know that because my dad's a car salesman- when he'd get more then usual we'd have "hat trick dinners"
Two things my mom hates. Service providers (utilities, cell phones, Internet) and dealerships and buying a car in general. Its the process she hates, not the reps.
I once had to deal with an elderly Karen (ELK) who came in wanting a "NowTV" TV, NowTV being a streaming service in the UK and wanted this TV because 'their friend had one'. NowTV do not produce actual smart TVs, what they do sell are cheap ~£20+ dongles/smart boxes. I tried to inform the customer of this, but of course 'I was wrong as her friend had one'. In the end I decided not to fight ELK's self imposed ignorance and convinced her to buy a TV that actually exists, which did the same things she wanted. But it was still £200+, over ten times what she would have paid had she listened to me.
.... and then his dad and uncle went to jail for assault and battery. Assaulting people to stop a nonviolent crime isnt illegal, even for ex-cops. At the very least, the CCW permits would get revoked.
It wouldn't surprise me if OPs dad and uncle bounced a lot of peoples heads off of steering wheels back in the day. But this one was special because it was personal, not business.
"Do we look poor to you?" "I'm sorry; I was just trying to help you find a truck in the price range you specified." ...also, wow. "I don't care if your baby lives or dies?" Do they really think that's going to make the salesman want to sell them anything? I am baffled that telling people he knew that you overcharged him made them come to you. But congrats! I genuinely don't know how people expect being nasty will get them what they want. I do know that once you start having to be snippy at the custoemr, though, the sale just isn't happening. At least, when I'm the customer. I, too, once went shopping for a $30,000 pickup truck. I was willing to budge upwards, but the dealership wasn't willing to budge downwards on ANY of the list prices they had. They tried showing me a dumpy one that was close to my price, but wouldn't have passed an honest inspection anywhere in Texas and was genuinely not any fun to drive. I started to walk away, and their line to try to get me to stay after I told them that I just didn't have what they were showing me in my budget was, "I don't think it's a matter of price; I think it's a matter of expectations," implying that I was being unreasonable by walking away from the "deals" they were offering me. Remember, they were not budging from the listed window-sticker price. On anything. Even the dumpy used one they tried to talk me into that I wouldn't have taken at HALF the price. I told them - by now, the salesman had asked me to wait so his manager could talk to me, and the manager was being just as condescending - "Well, I expect that I will not be buying a car from your dealership, now." And then I left. Godlings, what did they think telling me that I was wrong about how much I could afford to spend was going to accomplish? I am unsure why they thought I had money I would be talked into spending when they didn't even make an effort at negotiating down the price and I flat-out told them what my limit was, which they were still a few thousand over. Sure, fine, they can't or won't sell me something for my price range. But when I politely walk away, they try to tell me that I actually can afford what they're asking and am being unreasonable by walking away? Yeesh. Title story - It must hurt that somebody you have a good working relationship with is trying to screw you over. :(
I hate that so many have to work on commission, here in Aus we get paid hourly, I've never been paid less than $18 an hour, we don't have places that require tips often either.
Dark Fluff - 2 true stupid criminal stories. 1. I used to work at both locations of a steak restaurant. At the one on the East part of town a man comes in and fills out a job application. Later this same guy comes in with mask on and tries to rob the place. The cashier recognizes the voice. This idiot put his real name and actual address on the job application. 2. The day before I started working at a gas station it was robbed. They took beer, cigarettes, and lottery tickets. Really stupid move. They drove a very distinctive truck. Later a customer told the gal who was there during the robbery. They only lived 3 blocks from the gas station.
I usially dont like car salesmen, im an honest guy and usually dont try to lower price if its already at a good point, BUT i loved hearing this side of the story.
The dealership should have backed the employee. It wasn't that long ago where there was forced child labor and they had to work in horrible conditions for pennies, slum lords etc some people really don't care about anything but making money. I get wanting the know how much the dealership paid, butt he dealership also gets credits and other stuff. Besides that, there is a thing called over head, the building and its employees don't work for free. I'm sure the "lawyer wife" doesn't work for free even though her job is something that isn't tangible
i go upsold on my first new car that i chose to buy, still have it and love it despite its minor issues qualitywise. the guy seeing my age mid 20s was told by me i was looking for the hatchback version he went for SE not S and sports package wheels. it was a minor upsell that i only realized later on but it was happy with it. he was a bit sneaky but was a good car salesman at that Ford dealership. he could've suggested an SES but didnt. still a pretty good interaction/transaction with the salesman.
I love buying new cars. I always went with my Dad to the dealerships. We were both 6' tall. Dad was 265 lbs & I was 165 lbs. Once, we went to a dealership after I had done my research; I already knew which car I wanted & what was the MSRP & the invoice price. As we got out of Dad's car we saw all the sales guys sitting in front of the dealership, just chilling. I told my Dad, let me do all the talking. So this one guy gets up & asks if he could help us (the sales guy told me later that none of the other guys wanted to deal with my Dad, little did they know). Long story short, I said, I want to know your bottom line; I'm not interested in trade-in value or interest rates. What is your bottom line for a cash payment right now? I had financing from another source. He goes to talk it over with the GM & offers me a price of $1500 over the invoice price. I said that's too high; do better or I'm out of here with my cash. He goes to the GM & comes back with a price of $500 over the invoice price. I said I'll take the car if you buy me dinner. Deal done. When we got home with my new car, Dad said you lost out on that one. I said, "you don't eat at the same restaurants I do". The next day sales guy takes me to din-din & the tab was almost $600 (which included a $200 bottle of wine, that he wanted. I already knew how expensive the wine was so I didn't bother to suggest any- Tee Hee). BTW- My Dad almost busted a gut when I told him what our final tab, with tip, tallied. The sales guy would have been better off if he just dropped the price by $500. Yee Haw, Talk About The Art Of The Deal!
You'd be surprised what you'll find in a used car lot, when my dad was looking to buy a new truck he saw a car that was no more than 6 months old being sold as a used car.
@@Outnumberedbykidsandcats my point is that some people are so finicky about their cars they tend to replace them as soon as they were bought, I know this because my mother was one of those people.
Dear Dark Fluff, very first car I bought was a new Honda Civic. The first water cooled engines--$2300. It was so small that some guys I worked with picked it up by hand and turned it sideways in my parking space. Good times!
Lol, I walked on to a used car lot, looking at cars. I had $4000 flat to buy. Guy walks up, “what’s your budget?” $4000. We walk over to a really nice car for the price (I’m a kid, I saved the money up but was on a pretty crap income) it’s $7000. I say it’s a nice car, but not in my price. So when it becomes apparent that the sales guy couldn’t fathom that I was being honest with the amount I had to spend, I walked. Because I knew that there was no way they were going to be knocking $3000 off the price, and I didn’t have some magical money tree available to me to suddenly get more money off of.
The car sales story CB1 reminds me of my Grandpa. He is rude af the whole time to anyone in service. I've seen him bring servers to tears at least 5 times. Then he'll tip them like $100 on a $50 meal and they have no clue how to respond cuz he was the rudest person ever then he gave them their best tip probably ever. I can't stand his treatment of the workers but at the same time I know he's going to tip something ridiculous so even I don't know how to feel about it. I generally just try to ignore all his bs now.
and after they insulted his baby, the salesman's language was much more colorful, and justifiable, than the one in the video, and he was a lot more pissed (understandable). Not a mom, but the salesman's anger was justified.
While the first couple got away with way too much, I gotta say my brother is a lawyer, and before you decide he's sleazy, he's saved so many people from some of the scummiest car dealers in his state....pulling that "oh the web guy mixed up the pictures" crap.....

That last story sounds like something my uncles would have done when they were younger. Family reunions are always a gun show with them show off their new toys to everyone lol. They even had their hand guns on them at my stepfather's funeral last year where everyone could see lol.
You live in Texas? ;-)
@@realulli That could be any state. We call them gun nuts for a reason.
@@realulli sorry it took so long getting back to you. I didn't get a notification that anyone replied to my comment. But I laughed my ass off when i seen your question. I don't live in Texas but most of my family does, including said uncles lol.
@@TheMegalusDoomslayer you right that it could be any state but the funny thing is realulli was right in a way. I don't live in Texas but most of my family does.
@@user-mama_thomas No Problem. And yes, it was meant to be funny. I live in Germany, so nearly no guns, but I talk to a lot of people, so I think I heard a thing or two.
But the comment also is a bit of a pun on the movie "Miss Undercover", in the scene when they have their pageant in Texas, when she freaks out because she spotted a gun on someone. Her boss then tells her, "we're in Texas, dear, everyone carries a gun!"
Kinda fits your description... ;-)
I'm dying at imagining the 'beep beep beep' in time to the head mashing 🤣🤣💀
I find it very odd that the police think a former police officer's reporting of attempted extortion is a prank. Usually the word of a former officer is an edict from gawd, and they'll drop everything, even the morning's dozen doughnuts to assist. Most peculiar indeed.
My birthday's coming up on the 17th (in Australia, though).
If you give this comment a shoutout, can you please do so on your 16th? Thanks!
happy early birthday:)
my friends is too :)
Only about 3 more days. Happy early birthday 🎂!
Happy birthday 🎂 for Tuesday
Happy early Birthday to you!!!!
I hope you have a great week & be safe.
Is there a story about the beer in the Background?
10:24 I've seen first hand how employee customer relationships, can go both ways with the douchbagery, you have my sympathy, like I know you're mostly calm and care free when reading these, but after hearing your backstory, it's like hear the anger and pain you went through, F
Typical of people to kick my husband out after talking shit about someone's baby.
Those were some horrible customers.
Is it just me, or has fluffy worked in every industry in existence and have an example from each? 😂
Well this is last but what a way to finish the day
I used to work retail. Sales associate. I wasn’t a manager nor a buyer, but was in charge of the department. Yet, apparently, I was to blame for not having the sizes of jeans in, the discontinuation of items, prices... etc. so many entitled people. So glad that I no longer work retail!
What I got from the last story is that even when it’s to help their own, even when there is proof, even when they have a solid trail to all involved, cops will not do their job.
IN the car salesman story, what was on the screen was the censored version. The version posted on reddit: the salesman's language was a lot more colorful, and justifiable.
Hey Fluffy! I worked for Honda too, only motorcycles not cars. Title clerk so I really didn't deal with customers, thankfully. Thanks for another great video!
1st story.
When she said “I’ll eat you alive” perhaps OP should have asked if she’d like fries with that.
To bad the cops decided to do their job and pick up Donny.
OP's dad & uncle could have brought him in all black & blue...lol
Cop's: Why is he all messed up?
Dad & Unc: He tripped.....like a lot.
Cops: Sounds good to me.
Literally found this guy's channel this morning and already love it
Proud of that car salesman! Hat tricks are hard- especially with entitled brats! He stood his ground defending his child/himself- got the guy to pay extra- got a hat trick- and got some good wisky too. Not only that but stayed professional when the guy came back for it!?! Hell ya that guy sounds like my dad!
Question, what's a hat trick??
@@nikkiofthevalley three cars sold within a day which is very hard to do.
@@MsZebra-ke8yf Ohh.
@@nikkiofthevalley ya car lot lingo is Abit odd. Only know that because my dad's a car salesman- when he'd get more then usual we'd have "hat trick dinners"
Two things my mom hates. Service providers (utilities, cell phones, Internet) and dealerships and buying a car in general.
Its the process she hates, not the reps.
Darkfluff>rslash respect you for actually using swear words lol. You need more subs 😂
(facepalm)
It also helps that he doesn't use annoying voices like rslash.
@@Midnight-wh2bs Some listeners don't like him not censoring his reading of these posts. He just reads them as they are written.
I once had to deal with an elderly Karen (ELK) who came in wanting a "NowTV" TV, NowTV being a streaming service in the UK and wanted this TV because 'their friend had one'.
NowTV do not produce actual smart TVs, what they do sell are cheap ~£20+ dongles/smart boxes. I tried to inform the customer of this, but of course 'I was wrong as her friend had one'.
In the end I decided not to fight ELK's self imposed ignorance and convinced her to buy a TV that actually exists, which did the same things she wanted. But it was still £200+, over ten times what she would have paid had she listened to me.
'It's the wrong truck' reminded me of Scrubby's story about the girl in HS bitching that her dad bought her the wrong car.
OP was wonderful handling the old man. And the old man knew it.
When the salesman said he pocketed 500$ before 11:00 I don't feel that bad for him.
Perfect thing to listen to on my walk home after work. I needed this, thank you fluff
2:25 dude i am a teenager and even i can tell this is a sad attempt at haggling who do they think will fall for this
i don't get how people don't go batshit crazy after someone talks about your daughter like that...
Please convince OP to post that recording on your channel! We could all use a good laugh during these times. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love your stories, some of your stories are so funny. 😁
.... and then his dad and uncle went to jail for assault and battery. Assaulting people to stop a nonviolent crime isnt illegal, even for ex-cops. At the very least, the CCW permits would get revoked.
Imagine that, a business wanting to maximize profit, that's a novel idea. That police department on the extortion, were some lazy SOB's.
It wouldn't surprise me if OPs dad and uncle bounced a lot of peoples heads off of steering wheels back in the day. But this one was special because it was personal, not business.
The best is entitled pro revenge
50 bucks. I also worked for Honda and if we discounted cars below a certain amount, we'd only get 50 bucks.
"Do we look poor to you?" "I'm sorry; I was just trying to help you find a truck in the price range you specified." ...also, wow. "I don't care if your baby lives or dies?" Do they really think that's going to make the salesman want to sell them anything? I am baffled that telling people he knew that you overcharged him made them come to you. But congrats!
I genuinely don't know how people expect being nasty will get them what they want. I do know that once you start having to be snippy at the custoemr, though, the sale just isn't happening. At least, when I'm the customer. I, too, once went shopping for a $30,000 pickup truck. I was willing to budge upwards, but the dealership wasn't willing to budge downwards on ANY of the list prices they had. They tried showing me a dumpy one that was close to my price, but wouldn't have passed an honest inspection anywhere in Texas and was genuinely not any fun to drive. I started to walk away, and their line to try to get me to stay after I told them that I just didn't have what they were showing me in my budget was, "I don't think it's a matter of price; I think it's a matter of expectations," implying that I was being unreasonable by walking away from the "deals" they were offering me. Remember, they were not budging from the listed window-sticker price. On anything. Even the dumpy used one they tried to talk me into that I wouldn't have taken at HALF the price.
I told them - by now, the salesman had asked me to wait so his manager could talk to me, and the manager was being just as condescending - "Well, I expect that I will not be buying a car from your dealership, now." And then I left. Godlings, what did they think telling me that I was wrong about how much I could afford to spend was going to accomplish? I am unsure why they thought I had money I would be talked into spending when they didn't even make an effort at negotiating down the price and I flat-out told them what my limit was, which they were still a few thousand over. Sure, fine, they can't or won't sell me something for my price range. But when I politely walk away, they try to tell me that I actually can afford what they're asking and am being unreasonable by walking away? Yeesh.
Title story - It must hurt that somebody you have a good working relationship with is trying to screw you over. :(
Extortion is 100% legal in Pennsylvania, as long as you do it in person or over the phone. Hooray 2 party consent to record.
pulled an all nighter because i can't sleep my bday is in 3 days and i'm so excited
I hate that so many have to work on commission, here in Aus we get paid hourly, I've never been paid less than $18 an hour, we don't have places that require tips often either.
Dark Fluff - 2 true stupid criminal stories. 1. I used to work at both locations of a steak restaurant. At the one on the East part of town a man comes in and fills out a job application. Later this same guy comes in with mask on and tries to rob the place. The cashier recognizes the voice. This idiot put his real name and actual address on the job application. 2. The day before I started working at a gas station it was robbed. They took beer, cigarettes, and lottery tickets. Really stupid move. They drove a very distinctive truck. Later a customer told the gal who was there during the robbery. They only lived 3 blocks from the gas station.
I like how his friends hate him so much to buy from someone he hates.
“Friends”
@@JaelinBezel With "friends' like that, who needs enemies?
I usially dont like car salesmen, im an honest guy and usually dont try to lower price if its already at a good point, BUT i loved hearing this side of the story.
that last one probably could of ended up worse for the guy extorting if there were dead bodies buried there.
Well, ransomware does it too well :(
I liked all of 75 comments to make you happy
The dealership should have backed the employee. It wasn't that long ago where there was forced child labor and they had to work in horrible conditions for pennies, slum lords etc some people really don't care about anything but making money. I get wanting the know how much the dealership paid, butt he dealership also gets credits and other stuff. Besides that, there is a thing called over head, the building and its employees don't work for free. I'm sure the "lawyer wife" doesn't work for free even though her job is something that isn't tangible
i go upsold on my first new car that i chose to buy, still have it and love it despite its minor issues qualitywise. the guy seeing my age mid 20s was told by me i was looking for the hatchback version he went for SE not S and sports package wheels. it was a minor upsell that i only realized later on but it was happy with it. he was a bit sneaky but was a good car salesman at that Ford dealership. he could've suggested an SES but didnt. still a pretty good interaction/transaction with the salesman.
Desk Whiskey, what a dealership team!
Love your videos, can't wait to see if any are on the 06/14 (my birthday)
I love buying new cars. I always went with my Dad to the dealerships. We were both 6' tall. Dad was 265 lbs & I was 165 lbs. Once, we went to a dealership after I had done my research; I already knew which car I wanted & what was the MSRP & the invoice price. As we got out of Dad's car we saw all the sales guys sitting in front of the dealership, just chilling. I told my Dad, let me do all the talking. So this one guy gets up & asks if he could help us (the sales guy told me later that none of the other guys wanted to deal with my Dad, little did they know). Long story short, I said, I want to know your bottom line; I'm not interested in trade-in value or interest rates. What is your bottom line for a cash payment right now? I had financing from another source. He goes to talk it over with the GM & offers me a price of $1500 over the invoice price. I said that's too high; do better or I'm out of here with my cash. He goes to the GM & comes back with a price of $500 over the invoice price. I said I'll take the car if you buy me dinner. Deal done. When we got home with my new car, Dad said you lost out on that one. I said, "you don't eat at the same restaurants I do". The next day sales guy takes me to din-din & the tab was almost $600 (which included a $200 bottle of wine, that he wanted. I already knew how expensive the wine was so I didn't bother to suggest any- Tee Hee). BTW- My Dad almost busted a gut when I told him what our final tab, with tip, tallied. The sales guy would have been better off if he just dropped the price by $500. Yee Haw, Talk About The Art Of The Deal!
Hey dark fluff youre rhe best! Have a nice day
Dark Fluff after midnight!
You'd be surprised what you'll find in a used car lot, when my dad was looking to buy a new truck he saw a car that was no more than 6 months old being sold as a used car.
Well if it’s 6 months old it is a used car surely? I don’t understand your point.
@@Outnumberedbykidsandcats my point is that some people are so finicky about their cars they tend to replace them as soon as they were bought, I know this because my mother was one of those people.
what the frick is a hat trick????
three. In this scenario, three sales.
Sounds like there should be an investigation into the police officers that didn't care that a crime was being committed.
Dear Dark Fluff, very first car I bought was a new Honda Civic. The first water cooled engines--$2300. It was so small that some guys I worked with picked it up by hand and turned it sideways in my parking space. Good times!
Last one was so stupid 😂😂
Weird, angry, and weirdly angry!!
REVENGE !!!!
Amazing videos
Lol, I walked on to a used car lot, looking at cars. I had $4000 flat to buy. Guy walks up, “what’s your budget?” $4000. We walk over to a really nice car for the price (I’m a kid, I saved the money up but was on a pretty crap income) it’s $7000. I say it’s a nice car, but not in my price. So when it becomes apparent that the sales guy couldn’t fathom that I was being honest with the amount I had to spend, I walked. Because I knew that there was no way they were going to be knocking $3000 off the price, and I didn’t have some magical money tree available to me to suddenly get more money off of.
This was years ago now of course. I was 18-19 at the time. Ended up with a sweet deal on a v6 Magna. Loved that car!!!
On that last story it’s obvious the police weren’t interested in actually doing their job… So disappointing.
So what do the cops do if they refuse to do their job, just because they think it is a prank?
wow, how much did his "circle of friends" hate him in order to buy from the people who ripped him off?
The car sales story CB1 reminds me of my Grandpa. He is rude af the whole time to anyone in service. I've seen him bring servers to tears at least 5 times. Then he'll tip them like $100 on a $50 meal and they have no clue how to respond cuz he was the rudest person ever then he gave them their best tip probably ever. I can't stand his treatment of the workers but at the same time I know he's going to tip something ridiculous so even I don't know how to feel about it. I generally just try to ignore all his bs now.
I knew I like your channel now I love it
The truck story is insane, $33,000 is EXTREMELY cheap
First one sounds familiar but no kid to feed & instead of "sign or go home" they said he was paying more because of asshole tax
and after they insulted his baby, the salesman's language was much more colorful, and justifiable, than the one in the video, and he was a lot more pissed (understandable). Not a mom, but the salesman's anger was justified.
Car sellsmen are all soulless devils, but pot meet kettle I suppose. Some one should point that car story to Steve Lehto.
cb1: you think we’re poor?!
op shoulda said then buy the damn car at this price you pleb.
Pizza
Revenge is Sweet
I have no idea what happened in that last story, super confusing?
For the algorithm 👏👏👏🤙💪🤟🤓🥳😎
17d till my b day
I feel all people should work customer service or retail for a year. To get appreciation in the future.
Good stories
How are you darkfluff
Not too shabby! How bout you?
Good thanks for asking
Fantastic video
Hi
Whoa, you said you used to work at Honda??? My very first NEW car was a Honda Civic.
While the first couple got away with way too much, I gotta say my brother is a lawyer, and before you decide he's sleazy, he's saved so many people from some of the scummiest car dealers in his state....pulling that "oh the web guy mixed up the pictures" crap.....
love these
Hey darkfluff can you have bloopers at the end of your videos
