Why does no one want to sell to me?

I have been trying to buy a used or new fj for about a month. Every dealer I go to gives me the run around or high balls me (not sure if there is a word like that). Anyone know where i can get a fair deal in the bay or a new or used FJ?

Re: Why does no one want to sell to me?

To them you are not a buyer. Tell them what you want and what you want to pay. Sit down, work numbers, get where you want and you will get real answers and not just a price quote.
I sold Toyotas and now sell Jeeps and from what I read you are telling me you are not a buyer. No dealer will up front give you the real price without sitting down and working the deal. Commit if you are where you want otherwise walk.

The internet made my purchase very easy. In and out of the dealer in a about 1.5 hours including a long test drive. Going to diffrent dealers in your area is no longer necessary when you can use the internet.
