- Salesmen who make assumptions.

Lets get this list going lol.
This may only apply to Europran Delivery. Based on advice from this forum, I spec-ed my car and determined the European wholesale price
Then I sent an email the closest dealer with an offer to buy my spec-ed car for. $500 over European wholesale. In the email I gave them 3 days to respond and mentioned that while I would rather do business with them, if they did not want to do the deal I would send my offer to another dealer. With 5 minutes left on the deadline, the CA called me and said the dealer was accepting my offer. The deal went down to the penny with no back and forth at all.
