I found this fascinating quote today:
The difference in these two approaches is when the pain is recognized. The velocity dealers have kept their turn up albeit at lower averages but are refilling their lots with vehicles that they can sell at more competitive prices. The second group has deferred the pain, but cannot avoid being out sold in the coming months by the velocity dealers that offer the same cars to the market at much lower retail prices. In other words, take the medicine now or later, in one form or another. -Daledalepollak.com, Velocity | DalePollak.com, Jan 2010
If you are a "velocity dealer" and a member of the Dealerslink Marketplace, take note of your competitive advantage. You can take your medicine without the added auction fees, not quite so bitter. Plus, you have a buying group to utilize for acquiring your new, properly priced units, again with no fees. The advantage is clear.
