A new website, Unhaggle.com, was created to help consumers take the “haggling” out of the process of buying a car.
The website aims to take both the time and hassle out of negotating a new car deal — and dealers are signing up.
“We started Unhaggle because most people hate negotiating or just don’t have the patience to do it, particularly with car dealers. I realized this after a frustrating experience going through the car buying process myself,” said Andrew Tai, co-founder, Unhaggle.com in a news release. “I wished there was an easier way to get a great deal without having to visit multiple dealers and haggling… and now there is with Unhaggle.”
The company’s owners say that the Internet allows consumers to easily shop for every product imaginable, so why not new cars?
“We are the only source that provides Canadian consumers with true market based pricing on new cars by getting dealers to compete online. At the same time, we provide dealers with an efficient way to sell more and faster,” said Radek Garbowski, co-founder, Unhaggle.com.
Here’s how Unhaggle works:
* Customer builds the exact vehicle they want, selects local dealers to compete for their business and pays $47 on Unhaggle.com;
* Selected dealers are invited to submit their best offer for either the exact vehicle requested or an available alternative (e.g., different colour);
* All dealer offers are presented to the customer for comparison;
* Customer clicks ‘Accept’ on Unhaggle.com to reserve an offer, providing a small deposit which is credited to the purchase price;
* The winning dealer is revealed and the customer personally completes the transaction and picks up the new vehicle at the dealership.
“For less than the cost of a tank of gas, Unhaggle offers car buyers the convenience of not having to negotiate with any dealers, and the peace of mind of knowing they got a great deal,” says Neal Shah, co-founder, Unhaggle.com.
