internet sales asks u when u want to buy

just noticed on one dealer's site..they ask u your timeframe for buying..

in 48 hours
72 hours
or 2 weeks

If I tell them 48 hours, won't they think 'we got a live one here' and try and get my $$....

Shouldn't I lie and play hard to get?

who cares!! I'd put in 48 hrs just so they'd get back with me quickly. THat'd give me more time to shop around rather then wait for their emails.

I'd be honest.

They want to sell the car as much as you want to buy it, if not more. Just put 48 hours so they cater to you ASAP!
