Re: Dealer pricing difference?

When I accepted the offer (invoice plus X dollars) he then left the office and came back several minutes later with a new sheet generated on GM OrderWorkbench. Here’s what I don’t understand, the Invoice price jumped $716. The MSRP, GMS, and Supplier prices all remained exactly the same on both sheets. What’s up?
Seems like an accident to me. Am I correct in that the first printout that he showed you was a long list of options with empty squares and pricing? And the second was a list of your selected options with the MSRP, Invoice, GMS, and Supplier prices? He probably realized that he forgot advertising, like others have mentioned, and then he added it in the end. He's still got to close you on the final price, so there's nothing shady about that. I've done it before but I had the privelege of eating it for the customer. Everyone's so quick to assume that they're getting scammed even over a simple oversight.

How many invoices have you seen of vehicles that haven't been built?
