re: Buying a car online

If your target is 25k, I'd start lower. If you start there, they may only go down to 26k.

If you're trying to get it below 25k or at it, try starting at 21k or 22k. Tell them you're on a tight budget and you can't go too far up from there and see what they counter with.

If you have a firm price/budget, don't go above it just because they make it sound like a good deal. Move on, there's always more vehicles you can find in your price range.
