A car salesman was talking about factory rebates and other things that could get a buyer a better deal. He said were you a Veteran..yes How about Gov. employee..yes Senior Citizen..yes Is your Beacon score lower than 660? I said...LOWER? you mean higher. He said no lower...I said no mine is about 815. I laughed and said I get a better deal if I have BAD credit?. He said yes.

Later I was talking to my Chevy dealer friend and asked why they said that. He said they will give you $1000 off if you have bad credit, but here's the kicker. They sell you the car and then get you financed at 13.5% for 60 months. The bank gives the $1000 back to the dealer. The contract the buyer signs, has a statement about a penalty for early payoff.

Anyone ever hear of anything like that? That doesn't sound like it would be legal to do that.

Sounds true. Furniture dealers do likewise. "Buyer beware."

New car sales people are strange people. They'll say anything to make a sale.
