That would absolutely make sense, if any of the "work" had been done before posting the Xterra for sale. The only damage on the Xterra was hail damage and that was not repaired- I can see it still on the photos for the Xterra listing. Again, I totally understand that Schomp BMW wants to make a profit off car sales, I'm not saying that it should have been purchased from me at the same cost that you'd sell it for. Buying it off me for $1000 and then posting it for $6000 (I see it's now been dropped to $5,500) after only detailing the car it what upsets me. If all the hail damage had been repaired, then by all means you can post it for whatever price you want. The only cost accrued and "work done" on the Xterra was detailing. I had only asked for $3000 on the trade-in which is an absolutely reasonable price for the SUV with hail damage, well below what blue book would have listed it as (I'm talking trade-in values here, not private party sale). I was still giving Schomp BMW plenty of room for profit with my asking cost.

I love the truck that I bought but I hate that I was walked all over on my trade-in. They only gave me 1/3 of the price I asked for on my trade-in (which was already well below blue book value and a fair price point) and they turned around and posted it for SIX TIMES the amount they bought it off me for. I chose to do business with this dealership specifically for their reputation of being fair to customers and I am completely let down and feel like I was taken advantage of. I understand that business is all about the bottom line and they absolutely need to make a profit somewhere, but six-fold is out of control and a slap in the face to me.
