In the process of buying a car, I believe that many consumers have encountered such a scenario: when you bargain with the salesperson in the 4S store, the other party suddenly no longer gives in, and instead offers to give you gifts worth thousands of yuan, such as car models, floor mats, etc. At this time, you may feel that since you can't talk about it, you might as well accept these giveaways. But wait, are these giveaways really worth that much money? Today, let's uncover the truth behind the giveaways in 4S stores.
First of all, let's start with the most common and "real" giveaways - gas cards and maintenance coupons. These two kinds of giveaways usually have a clear value, for example, a 1000 yuan gas card is 1000 yuan, which can be used directly at the gas station; The maintenance voucher can be used to offset the cost of vehicle maintenance. The value of these giveaways is relatively transparent and not easily "adulterated".
However, not all giveaways are so "real". For example, some 4S shops will give away motor vehicle maintenance labor hours. This fee may sound like a professional fee, but in reality, the 4S store has a lot of autonomy over this part of the fee. For example, for the same vehicle inspection, the working hours given by different 4S stores may vary greatly, ranging from 200 yuan to 800 yuan. This is like red envelopes and coupons in online shopping, which seem to have a large denomination, but if the ** of the product itself is inflated, then the actual discount margin is not large.
In addition to these, the 4S store will also give away some original boutiques, such as dash cams, reversing images, etc. The value of these products is more difficult to judge. On the one hand, if it is a product that matches the original factory, its quality and practicability are usually relatively high; But on the other hand, some brands do not provide original recorders, so these giveaways are likely to be exclusive products provided by Auto Parts City, and the quality is uneven.
In addition, there are some gifts that seem to be high-end and high-grade, such as high-end mats and car models. These giveaways usually have a high list price, but in reality, they can cost only a third of the list price or even less. Therefore, when accepting these giveaways, consumers must keep a clear head and not be fooled by superficial flashiness.
Although the giveaway is good, the most important thing is the quality and cost performance of the vehicle itself. Therefore, when choosing a giveaway, we should choose according to our needs and preferences and not be swayed by the rhetoric of the salesperson. Secondly, for some high-value gifts, it is best for us to clarify their model, specifications, value and other information in the car purchase contract, so that they can be used in the future to protect rights. Finally, if possible, we can also ask for more practical benefits such as a cash offer or an extended warranty. Like and follow, we'll see you next time!
