And you have several other advantages. For inâ€" stance, you save money that the dealâ€" er must charge off to selling expense assuming the dealer insists upon breaking even on‘ the deal. â€" There is also the possibility of your selling your car for more than market price. But your real opportunity to obtain a high price lies in the fact that the It costs the dealer money to sell yourm car â€" at least $50 on the average and probably $100 by the time mhad charges are added up. ore, even if the dealer alâ€" lows you exactly market price, he loses $50 or more. If you are buyâ€" ing a mediumâ€"priced car it isn‘t logâ€" ical to assume he can‘afford to lose much more than that. If he allows you $50 over the market price he loges $100. The profit on the average car is not patticularly large; certainly not large enough to assume that the dealâ€" er can lose very much on each used car sale and still stay in business. w believe that an automobile dealer will allow much ‘more than can b¢e secured in the open market. Sometimes this is true, particularly of the less popular makes or models. But, generally speaking, the more popular the make of new car the less the dealer will give you for your old one. â€"|In fact the smallness of the allo is a good indication as to the popularity and desirability of the new elx ‘ Large allowances indicate that the demand for this make in your supply while small allowances indiâ€" cate that the demand is greater than the supply. ‘ (By H.
