Default How Does a Buyer Confirm a Dealer's Allocation Number?

When a dealer claims he has "X" allocations for a C7, how can the buyer confirm that? Is there any documentation that can be shown to the buyer, or must we take their word for it - even if there is a question about the truth?

If the dealer is willing he can provide you with a copy of his consensus report which clearly shows what he asked for and what he received. Then each week on Thursday, the dealer can share with you his weekly placement report. This report will show the allocation for the week and the constraints that apply.

A reputable dealer is willing to share this information and prove to you his ability to order a new Stingray and have the order filled.

Have a great day,
Ken

Thanks, Ken. I'll remember that. It may come in handy.
