4. Declining to Buy the Car



1.

A: Thank you for letting me test drive the car.

B: So do you think that you would like to purchase this car?

A: You know, I am not interested in purchasing the car right now.

B: What's the problem? We can at least sit down and maybe work out a deal.

A: Actually, I have several other cars to look at before I make my decision.

B: What didn't you like about the car? Maybe I can fix something for you.

A: It is a combination of things, but I appreciate your time.

B: I have some other cars you might want to look at.

A: Again, I appreciate your time but I will not be purchasing this car.

B: Give me a call if you change your mind. Have a good day.



2.

A: I appreciate you letting me take the car out for a spin.

B: Why don't you come over here and we can work out the details of the purchase?

A: I don't think that this is the car for me at this point in time.

B: It's a great deal. Let's talk price. Maybe you'll change your mind.

A: This is only the first car that I've looked at.

B: Is there something in particular that didn't look good to you?

A: It isn't one thing in particular, but I think I can do better for my money.

B: I really think that you should reconsider.

A: Thank you again for your time.

B: Thank you for stopping by. Good luck in your search for a car.



3.

A: I enjoyed taking the car out for a test drive.

B: Isn't that a great car? Let's work out the details of purchase.

A: I will not be purchasing the car today.

B: Why don't you take a second look at that car? You'll see that it is as good a deal as you are going to get.

A: I need to compare this car to others to make an informed choice.

B: You said on the phone that this is the kind of car you wanted. What has changed your mind?

A: I just really need to make sure that I get the best car for my money.

B: You know, you can look around but I just don't think that you are going to get a better deal for your money.

A: I will continue looking around for cars and will get back to you if I change my mind.

B: OK, then. Have a good day.
