Are Buyers Really Liars? What Saying This Really Says About YOU!

 

Is The Pot Calling The Kettle Black?

 

I've been watching a particularly interesting post, and more so the comments.  A couple of commenters made the statement:  "Buyers Are Liars" as a part of their comment.

I was particulary intrigued and appalled with their comments, so I Googled the term and came up with this CAR SALESMAN LINGO post.

"Buyers are liars": Car salesmen know they have a reputation for dishonesty. But they counter with this claim of their own.

Salesman #1: After the test-drive, this guy tells me he has to leave 'cause he's got a doctor's appointment. Yeah, right."

Salesman #2: "What can I tell you, man? Buyers are liars."

So, if you read the blurb and understand it the way I do, it basically says that everytime an agent, or in this case, a car salesman says this, it only re-inforces the stereotypical dishonest reputation of the real estate agent.

The rub:  So to put it into a real estate agent context:  Real estate agents know they have a reputation for dishonesty.  But they counter with this claim of their own.

I've never uttered that statement, though I've heard it enough.

Here's what it says about YOU by stating (or believing) it:  I KNOW THAT I HAVE A REPUTATION FOR DISHONESTY...."

When you say the "B" statement  you liken yourself to the image above.

Not pretty at all.
