If the price is POA, don't enquire. End of.

Thanks yes good advice,, there are a lot of dealers trading without priced
adverts, if you use the truck trader search they have a very usefull
fuction that cuts out POA adverts saves a lot of wasted time...

if people stop responding to POA adverts, they will (or should) stop doing it.

Or when responding to POA, bid them in the bks and see what happens- you can laugh if nothing else. It's only worth what you're prepared to pay..

Edited to add- bid in the bks regardless, apologies.

If you're in the market for a truck it's worth contacting the finance companies, they have vehicle repossesions etc and sometimes want to move metal on quick. Dealers can be specualtive with used vehicles- it can be difficult to gauge the price sometimes. Key thing is to have you're own finance in place and know what you're prepared to pay. Then, bid them accordingly- they can only say no.
