      No, they don’t have to be cheaper. In fact, I’d be willing to spend a bit more than I had to just to not deal with negotiation bullshit

        If you think Amazon adding itself as a middleman and taking a cut helps you then you’re pretty dim.

        Edit: get mad if you want, doesn’t change the fact that it adds complexity and cost and the dealer will still do what dealers do with lying and upselling regardless.

      It would allow for more price transparency, wouldn’t it ?
