Vent! Motor Traders Admin fees

I am getting very tired of searching through car sites, putting in my max budget, finding a decent car and then seeing (hidden in the description)
Admin fee of £xxx payable on all vehicles
What admin?
HPI check? It's a cost of doing business
Filling in a V5?
I know why they do it, to get their cars to look more attractive in the listings but, Motor Traders, WE ARE NOT STUPID.
The good thing about it is it gives you an idea of the morality of the motor trader involved.
(I never thought I'd use 'morality' and 'motor trader' in the same sentence)

im sure you don't have to pay it, "optional" is usually on the sticker on the car
Motorpoints is optional, im sure they all are ?
"A Pre-Delivery Fee of £99 (optional) includes HPI Certificate, PDI, Service (if required) and valet"0
