    "managers special" and deals that must be completed under pressure are just standard sales tactics.

    I can't remember buying a car where the sales guy *didn't* need to go and check with his manager, otherwise known as grabbing a coffee.

    The deal will almost certainly be the same or better tomorrow.
    Last time one of them did that I stood up and I’ll come with you and we both went to see his manager. That made for an awkward conversation as I keep asking lots of questions about why the discount couldn’t be more, why they wouldn’t match WBAC, why his salesman was not allowed to make decisions.
