    Excellent Resource
    All the info you’ll need to feel comfortable while selling, buying, or leasing. I highly recommend using this excellent resource to prepare for your next deal. It has helped me immensely especially since I’m in the leasing market every 2-3 yrs. Thank you for continuing to produce this great content!

    Amazing Podcast
    Very informative podcast about negotiating for a big purchase! The strategies apply to cars, trucks, motorcycles, boats, rvs, etc. Several tricks are laid out and the process is covered from the beginning to the end.

    Got out of a high interest loan
    I loved the advise that this podcast gave. For the past 2 years i was paying over $500 per month for a Toyota Corolla. I felt like i was never going to get out of this never ending loan. With the advise and information i learned from the deal talk podcast, i was able to get out of this loan and started a new LEASE on a 2019 highlander. This was a great experience and i lowered my monthly payment and got more car. I highly recommend this podcast for ongoing learning and advice when buying or leasing a new vehicle.

    This is great
    I found out about this on Reddit in a RAV 4 community. I am currently trying to decide on a used car or a lease of a compact SUV within the next month or two. I am learning so much. He goes into so many topics that the layman purchaser knows very little about.

    Makes Sense
    For anyone that has anxiety on buying a vehicle should listen to this podcast. This is very informative and most importantly tells you what you need to do in order to have confidence in your search. Even if you are not nervous about buying a vehicle you will want to listen because I guarantee you are missing something.

    First Time Car Buyer
    I bought a car for the first time through a dealership! This podcast and the book saved me close to $3,000 dollars. That’s a 100000% return on my $3 investment! The important things to listen to is do your research, don’t be afraid to leave a bad deal and ask questions as well as put in the work to negotiate the deal you want. I spent 2 months of research with constant listening to this podcast to get tips that came in handy! I walked away from a flood car because I knew what to look for! Please do yourself a favor listen to at least 5 episodes and buy the book!

    Best information I found on how a car deal works. What to do before hand and what to expect. It really does make the car buyer feel more confident in themselves as they walk onto the car dealership. Would definitely recommend the podcast for anyone who’s in the market to purchase a car!

    Listen to this before buying a car!!!
    I listen to these before I went and looked at a car. Thanks to the advice I was able to get the car I wanted at the price I never thought was possible. I highly recommend listening to this before going out to buy a car.

    Deal Talk is the Real Talk
    Just finished the trade-in episode, It was very valuable information. I'll never buy another car without reviewing this podcast.
  • easy.d
    Here's the deal
    I never knew that there was this much to know about acquiring a vehicle. I am impressed at the breadth of topics and depth of knowledge the speaker brings to this subject. Every time I listen to one of the podcasts I get sucked in and stop what I am doing; I've driven around my block a few times just to finish an episode without interruption. And the quality is remarkably better than many of the top podcasters out there. Keep up the good work.
  • Raptor that
    Excellent advice!
    Geoff does a fantastic job of simplifying things for those of us not well versed in buying a car. I purchased The Informed Buyer on kindle to get his advice in written form. Plus, he's got a great voice for podcasting.

    Got a great deal on my new car!
    Geoff is a wealth of information when it comes to a lot of things, but especially cars! I listened to several of his podcasts leading up to the purchase of my new RAV, and feel I got the best deal, and felt knowledgeable walking into the dealership! Highly recommended!
  • SeanSeanSeanSeanSean
    Thanks Geoff!
    Geoff is a sponge of knowledge when it comes to buying a car! I listened to his podcast before shopping for a car and felt very comfortable going to the dealership with the knowledge that Geoff shared, which helped me come out with a new lease without any trouble!
  • fbara
    Very helpful but takes time
    I just found this podcast while researching to buy a new car. This is a fantastic series! The host goes into detail regarding how the industry works, what the dealers are thinking and their motivation (it's not just/entirely money), and how we can better prepare ourselves for an activity that we might do only a handful of times in our lives.

    Very helpful podcast!!
    Geoff offers some great, inside information that can help even a novice car buyer like me get a superior deal on a car. While looking for my current lease, the podcast helped me understand the factors that go into lease pricing and how to negotiate great terms and, ultimately, the best possible deal for me. Thanks to the whole staff of Deal Talk!!

    In depth and useful information, essential listening before buying or leasing a new vehicle
    I found myself in need of purchasing a new vehicle in a short amount of time, and listening to Deal Talk really made the process of leasing a new vehicle (in a hurry) a better experience. The information presented helped me feel more confident and in control of the entire process. Having purchased and leased many cars previously throughout my whole life, I thought I knew everything, but Deal Talk taught me quite a bit more than I already knew. The insights and topics shared were invaluable, and as a result, I was able to negotiate a deal thousands below dealer cost, while getting thousands more for my trade than I was previously willing to let it go for. Overall, Geoffrey’s knowledge and experience is worth the time to listen to, I promise you will not be disappointed!

    Fantastic!
    Well, I truly wish I would have listened to this podcast before I purchased the last couple cars. I used to work in the car industry years ago, but even I didn’t know the information I found within this podcast. It is fantastic if you are looking to buy a car and even if you just like cars. There is so much covered. I highly recommend listening to this podcast. Geoffrey is incredibly knowledgable. You won’t regret it.
  • VW QUEEN
    Helpful To Me
    I listened to several episodes of DealTalk, I found them to be most useful in purchasing my new VW. The episode of buying vs leasing was very helpful, I never thought too much about leasing always felt it was a ripoff, but listening to DealTalk made me weigh my options. I ended up leasing my new VW. It was a very easy process, much easier than I thought. I did my homework before going to the dealer, I knew just what I wanted and how much I needed to spend. One DealTalk episode, was about car buying is about You not the salesperson. I went into the dealership knowing just what I wanted and needed. Overall, DealTalk is a very interesting podcast that is very valuable to anyone that is trying to buy a car new or used. Thank you for all of your valuable hints, continue spreading the word on car buying.
  • Poofster!!
    Best info available!
    Geoffrey offers some great insight due to his history in the automobile industry. I’m currently in the market for a used car and his tips have helped immensely. He breaks down each strategy in an easy to understand way with simple lingo. I can’t wait to get my new car after listening to Deal Talk.

    Very grateful
    Hello, I just wanted to thank you very much for your very informative podcast. It's 3 am right now and I haven't been able to go to sleep out of anger. I went to a dealership by my work today after having been emailing dealerships throughout the morning and afternoon. I was able to get a very low price on a new 2015 Prius. I was quoted OTD At 24902. That sounded like a great deal to me so I took it to a competitor to see if they could beat it. When I got there I sat down with them and heard them out to see what they would offer. Lo and behold it was over the OTD price of the original dealership. So I brought out the email that the other dealership has sent me and showed it to them. The representative said he would take it to his manager to see what they could work out. Well he came back later with a price that was $700 cheaper. I said great and let's get the paperwork started. I then notified him that I wanted to use my car as a trade-in. We negotiated for a while but we came to the agreement of 2500 for my truck. All this was taking place in the lounge area. But once we got to the financing managers office everything changed. They tried to throw me different numbers to confuse me. They try to switch out the OTD price that they had originally given me and raised the price of the car. Once I caught on to what was happening they tried to rectify the wrong. But when they structured the agreement again they were adding other costs to the car. I promptly smiled and shoocked their hands and said goodbye. I'm very grateful for your podcast and all the information you have provided thank you

    Mr.
    Very informative. A patient presentation that tells you how to be your own advocate. It may take some homework and legwork, but Geoff has done a lot of it for you. Listen to his advice.
  • RLWardd
    This is the “Real Deal”, Gain 30 Years of Buying Knowledge in 30 Minutes! The BEST!
    Not just extremely valuable knowledge on how to get the best price when buying ANYTHING, the presenter is interesting, and enjoyable to listen to. 30+ years in the business gives the presenter unbelievable credentials as an “Expert”! I especially liked that although each podcast is full of great "inside information" on how to get the best deal possible, each podcast is only 30 minutes long. GREAT to listen to on the commute to work. You will save more $$$ with this knowledge than you will likely make at work this week (maybe this month)!
  • FrankWeaver
    Listen to Deal Talk before even thinking of buying a car!
    I wish I had heard of this podcast before buying my current car. So much knowledge from someone that has worked inside the industry. Great to listen if you are thinking of buying/leasing a car, motorcycle.
  • Dan Asher
    Amazing Information
    It's not a subject I know much about, but in listening to this I feel like I finally have some understanding. Very good quality, and way more interesting than I could have imagined this subject would be.
