Moose...I haven't read this entire thread yet but I agree with a lot of what you are saying. EDIT...more thoughts... With the prolific use of the internet a lot of goods and services have been commoditized...to the extent that actual personal relationships between buyer and seller are going away...which I don't think is a good thing overall as there is value in this type of relationship. Internet empowerment is one thing I guess but I would have tried to work this deal out behind the scenes to hopefully come away with an equitable deal for both sides...or just walked away. I know I have messed up pricing to my customers before (vastly different industry) and had to go back to them for fair resolution...and it was done...mainly because both sides saw value in maintaining good relations.

It's not exactly gone in 60 seconds, not even 60 hours, but still, Dooma made a steal with that car (at least for the dealership, not counting the lawyer fees). So it's way appropriate. |

I was all for magnanimity, until I saw this. Now I feel a little bit queasy to say the least. If they'd honored the deal straight away this would have been OK, but after 7+ days of playing hardball... Perhaps another tune for Dooma's playlist could be : Elton John : Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word |

> Of course Husker wants to mend things with the opposing public. Its all
> about good PR. Yes ... and there is nothing wrong with that. IMHO, this approach will be very well received in the corn belt. Husker is not the anti-Christ. The reality is that we will never know which of the auction terms were genuine mistakes ... and which terms were attempts to spark bidding. |

It didn't mention that in the article. Or do my eyes fail me? Another 'mistake' perhaps? |

AND.......... Here I thought I was going to be a productive member of society again! Now I must again resort back to checking the threads, hourly, for the onslaught that is about to begin.

Ive been following this from Saskatoon. I couldnt help myself any more and had to join up to make my comment.
I think someone from Husker posted the advert as a way of showing that in they end the dealer thinks he triumphed. But it looks like false advertising to me, at least deception. Also, I nosed on the Husker website and it looks as if the internet guy is gone, gone, gone. If the car gets delivered then I would say all hell should brake loose again. This delaer is just bullshitting the world with his statements. Doom hasn't told us about his attortney fees. I am willing to pay a portion just because no dealer in the future should ever be allowed to do this kind of thing again. If the internet community can stand together dealers will learn a lesson from this. So, DOom, how can I get you $25(CDN - but now it's the same thing as US)? I, for one, have had my Fil of dealers like this one. |

The "Honorable" thing for them to do is to SHUT THE HELL UP!!! They were gaining a little respect the last couple of days...... now this!!! Do they think that they can just "slip in" a little statement and make things all better and life will go on. Sign me up for "THE FUND" - The legal fund- to Ken or whatever we need to do to set the record straight. Do they take us for a bunch of dummies? Let's get that car to Ken first.
