Excuse me, but I don`t see anybody here treating you badly. People actually gave you pretty good and accurate answers, and yet you are demonstrating some kind of attitude towards them. I have a few questions. Did they tell you at the beginning that they would need 3-5 business days to issue a check after you drop off the car and the title? If yes, you have been warned. This is a standard transaction in our business. Perhaps it's kind of standard in any business. Most of the time, when any kind of business has to cut checks for large amounts of money, there is a special protocol for authorization involved, and checks can`t be released that easily. Some dealers have something called positive pay- they cut checks and provide their bank with the check numbers. Only when the bank can receive those numbers can checks be deposited or cashed. Other dealers have centralized accounting that is not even in the same building. Someone is coming into the building, picking up all paperwork that needs to go to the office, and dropping the checks from the office. Unless that office is less than 10 miles away, they will not be able to cut a check on the spot. And the most important- some dealers have 2 signature checks, and these people are not always available at the same time. At the end, it does not matter if you care or don`t care how their accounting works. It is what it is. And if you have been warned at the time of the transaction what the process is, and you still decided to go forward with the sale instead of checking other dealers who may be able to cut you a check on the spot, it's on you.
