You're incorrect. Remember, I've run lots before. Janice has a point that he may have had some cars set aside for ebay, but then why bother with a lot at all? Or maybe that's what he's thinking? If you have no need for your lot, you might as well get rid of it. Of course, reading ebay, the complaints he had were in regard to his car sales. I wouldn't think his future there would be good.
In a new car lot, you have a make ready where you prep cars, even a used car lot may have the cars in back to be cleaned and oil changed or whatever, but you most certainly want your cars where customers can see them. You're not going to get any business if you keep your cars hidden. That's just silly.
