Default Opinions on forddiscounts.com.au

Hi all,
Anyone any feedback on this site ?
forddiscounts.com.au

I was planning to email a few dealers anyway to see what best price I could get and this site claims to do it for you (doubt I'd rely on just this site though)

Curious if anyone has used them and how they work out ?

thanks

most of these sites work on a kick back scheme where if they refer a buyer they get paid a spotters fee.

True - they openly admit that, just wondered if anyone had experience usign them good or bad?

From their website...
"The dealer who gives you the best price pays us a referral fee."

"And the dealers know in order to win your business they have to give you the best price. (And that price includes dropping the car off at your door with a full tank of fuel.)"

Never heard of this actual site but the concept has been around for ages. In all honesty it can't hurt.
