Illegal Price Discrimination Notice against Cash Buyers

Is a Dealer threatening you with a Price Change because you have a pre-approval from your own Bank or Credit Union, or are they trying to charge you a fee for paying with Cash?

The following laws and regulations make this illegal!

Robinson-Patman Act on Price Discrimination

  • FTC Regs Section 463.4 (a) on true “Offering Price”
  • Anti-Trust Laws prohibiting such actions.

With notice of these laws in hand, if the Dealer still insists their price must change because you’re not using their financing, fill out the information and have a member of their management sign and date below and then file an FTC complaint at the link seen below:
