.......Brondes Ford in Toledo, Ohio, asked 15 customers who put down a $500 deposit to bid for the store's allotment of three or four cars. Sales manager Rob Whitner says he expects the store get $15,000 to $20,000 over sticker.

 

"There are people that want the first of everything," Whitner says. "It's a matter of supply and demand. We're not the kind of store that's trying to gouge anybody."

I think "supply and demand"fall's into the catagory of gougeing in this case.Why didn't they tell the other 11-12 customer's can't get it and sell the one's for a reasonable price I herd there is alot in U.S. and the west end of CANADA but also heard that there is a law in CANADA that dealer's can't markup? BEST OF LUCK TO ALL!! :happy feet: :bandance:
