Part 3/9:
As they sit down, Zack confirms that the vehicle is available. However, the first hurdle appears almost immediately: the advertised price was a typo. Rather than the enticing $19,995, the actual price is now stated as $21,995—an increase that seeks to catch Ray off-guard. Zack's insistence that it's simply a mistake rather than a tactic raises red flags, inviting suspicion about the dealership's pricing transparency.
Ray, understandably frustrated, confronts Zack about the discrepancy. Unfortunately, instead of a resolution, he encounters the old tactics of car salesmen, who often weave their narratives to shift the burden of miscommunication to the customer.
