Going to buy a new car but have a pricing question...sm

Posted By: Moo on 2009-05-17

Hi all!  I plan on buying a car on Wednesday.  My mom bought a similar one yesterday.  The ''total vehicle price'' on the window sticker is $1159 less than the ''vehicle cash price'' on the invoice.  This is the amount on line one, prior to sales tax, documentary fees, licensing, and admin fee. There was no optional equipment listed on the sticker or invoice.  I plan on questioning this Wednesday, but thought I would ask here before making a fool of myself.  Can anyone explain this?  There were some very car-smart people on here before discussing new cars, and hoping at least one of them sees this.  Thanks!

Try new construction pre-pricing.

Go where they are planning on building.  You can get in cheaper and have instant equity.  Sometimes new construction/builders offer great financing.  Just a thought...Good luck.  Fixer-uppers can work, too, if you're handy or can stand to wait and do not need all of the amenities right at first. 


Pricing out privacy fence...

When I landed at our place in 2002, I quickly learned I HAD to put up a privacy fence for the safety of my animals as well as the safety of the little kids who visit their grandparents next door, because I found them once too often in the pasture trying to pet the animals, and a hoof to their forheads would have been a very bad thing.


I went to Home Depot and quickly got discouraged at not only the cost of doing it yourself, but the labor and tools required.  I live in New England and the ground is 90% ROCK...try digging a post hole through THAT and have fence posts spaced out appropriately...ain't gonna happen.


So, I called a fence place that was in the phone book.  They came over FOR FREE, measured out what I wanted, sat down with me and a book and showed me what was available, gave me costs, and said "call us when your're ready." 


You bet your bippie I went with the fencing company.  They had 274 feet of 6' cedar privacy fence completely installed in ONE DAY for under $4000 (back in 2003).  They had the guys, the knowhow, and the proper equipment.  I had to go with metal pipes instead of wood poles because our ground is so wet and rocky, and I thought it would be ugly, but it has worked out absolutely wonderfully.  I haven't painted or stained it either, just let it turn that pretty gray that cedar does.


You can see some pictures of it on my website here:

Best investment ever...not only for the safety factor, but also for the privacy, as you can see from the photos, even though we have lots-o-land, the neighbors were just too darned close.  Grab your phone book, look up fence installation companies, and at least get those free estimates.    


Yard sale, need pricing help
I have some paint by number pictures that I do not want to keep (these are the ones already painted.) These are the old ones, probably from the 50s. I had heard these were sorta collector items but has anyone sold or bought any of these and if so, what is a good price to put on them for my community yard sale coming up? Thanks.
