Honest John's Dealership	comment	You're in a sticky situation; you need to get something and there doesn't seem to be a cheap or legal way of getting it. (It could be banned, rationed, expensive, from overseas or possibly just made in extremely limited quantities). If you're unlucky, you'll have to visit Honest John's Dealership. While this trope focuses on used cars, it covers anything sketchy that a pushy salesperson tries to sell you. These are the guys who'll attempt to sell you anything, mostly items that Fell Off the Back of a Truck. The items may be off warranty, withdrawn by the manufacturer in your country, returned items that broke and got refurbished, salvaged from a wreck, or out-of-date models. The "gently used car" was probably an Uber or police car. They sell anything that is just barely legal. The prices are usually dodgy too, either Too Good to Be True or obnoxiously overpriced. (The former usually catches more people out than the latter.) Sometimes there's big hidden fees and charges. Sometimes, there's a catch hidden on page 26 of the agreement. All in all, their main goal is quick money. Like its cousin trope, the Friend in the Black Market, Honest John can fit anywhere on the neutral or chaotic side of the Character Alignment spectrum: a good comparison would be the Loveable Rogue Jerk with a Heart of Gold 'Del Boy' Trotter or Mr. CMOT Dibbler types VS Jerkasses like Mr. Wormwood or Sociopaths like Harry Lime. After all, selling malfunctioning blow-up dolls is a far more forgivable occupation than selling The Alleged Car that hates you with a passion or fake pharmaceuticals to orphanages. If the "Honest John" character is genuine, pure evil, then you've got a Deal with the Devil on your hands. More likely he's just a Slimeball - maybe one with friends in the Totally Not a Criminal Front. However you slice it, you're probably not coming out ahead on this deal. Expect him to wear an obnoxious outfit (plaid polyester suit jackets seem to be popular), record Insane Proprietor advertisements and Kitschy Local Commercials, and say "But Wait, There's More!" every other sentence. If this character is rendered as a Funny Animal, chances are quite high that he'll be a weasel or a fox. Items for sale at Honest John's may include All-Natural Snake Oil, Asbestos-Free Cereal, the Brooklyn Bridge, and of course The Alleged Car. If he's primarily out to scam women out of their money rather than everyone, then he's a Sexist Used Car Salesman. Despite trying to appear as having Names to Trust Immediately, chances are fairly good that the "Honest" part makes it an Ironic Name in the same spirit as the People's Republic of Tyranny. You know, if he has to tell everyone he's honest... Compare and Contrast Friend in the Black Market, who also sells items at a premium but at least guarantees he's giving you the good stuff. May also overlap with a Shady Scalper, who generally will gain the items they sell legally, but in doing so inflate the prices to profit. In a military setting, this trope is almost guaranteed to overlap with The Scrounger. See also Snake Oil Salesman, Shady Real Estate Agent, New Job as the Plot Demands, Crooked Contractor, Medicine Show, The Barnum, and Traveling Salesman. Only tangentially related to Richard Nixon, the Used Car Salesman, as that doesn't actually require characters to have this job, just a different one than in real life. Related to Unknowingly Possessing Stolen Goods, where a character gets in possession of items that are stolen, which can be sold from one of these dealers. Completely straight examples tend not to last long in Real Life, but we've probably all met one at least once. They're called "gray market salesmen" in business/econ terms. Ironically enough, they have less of a reason to lie and cheat than new car salesmen, as used car sales are a) more profitable in general and b) usually grant more consistent commissions because you're largely just selling the car and have fewer middle-men to appease, while new car salesmen derive a far larger portion of their commissions from tacked-on extras, leading to overwhelmingly high-pressure tactics and occasionally outright lying or grossly stretching the truth.

Honest John's Dealership / int_14600393	comment	Matilda: Mr. Wormwood. He crosses the line into outright criminality — his entire business model is built on selling cars that appear to run fine, until they get about thirty miles off the lot when the customer's Sudden Onset Unbridled Rage is suddenly aggravated by whatever means he should choose to use to prove he doesn't owe them a refund. He dinkers with worn-out cars to make them seem newer and in better conditions then they are (sawdust in the crank case is a common one), and he's involved with dealing in stolen cars too. At the end, it's not clear whether the law, his associates, or his clients are after him, but he's moving to Spain in an awful hurry.

Honest John's Dealership / int_178c5235	comment	In Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale, you are playing one yourself. Or at least you CAN, since the price you can get for an item isn't just the item itself but the customer you are selling it to (the well-dressed man will pay more than the little girl) as well as your relationship with them (if you've given them "good deals" in the past, you can trade on that friendship to charge them more later). Not to mention taking advantage of the daily price fluctuations certain items are in/out of demand) when a horde of shoppers enter the store, desperate for certain items. Not quite — everything you sell is in working order, but you charge through the nose for it. Euria is a better example, selling rare, wondrous items and accepting a wider spread of prices for them... with that spread centered at 500% market value.

Honest John's Dealership / int_261c8d3f	comment	The Simpsons: Gil Gunderson, the eternally luckless salesman sometimes tries to pull this off but lacks the backbone, charisma, and intelligence to do so. There was the one-shot Crazy Vaclav, who tried to sell Homer a car from an Eastern European country that no longer exists. There's also the salesman who sold Homer the snowplow. Partially averted, as the scheme he used to sell the snowplow to Homer actually worked for Homer... until he sold another one to Barney. And the salesman from "Homie the Clown", who convinced Homer that bullet holes in a car were 'speed holes' that made the car go faster. And then there was the time an unemployed Homer saw a "Help Wanted" sign, planned to steal it so the store proprietor would have to pay him to make a new one, only for the proprietor to show Homer what he did to scammers like him... by immediately hiring him. And Honest John's Computers in "The Computer Wore Menace Shoes", with overpriced computers, slick salespeople, complimentary coffee, and have a deed swiper as a form of payment. In another episode, Marge had to go buy a new car and the salesman banked on her being easy to fool since she was a woman. The whole ordeal is him trying to manipulate Marge, only for her to reveal more and more info she got from the internet about the car's true performance, availability and price down to the personal information of the salesman when he tried to guilt trip her. Herman seems to do this. In "Old Money", he charged $400 for an old fez, claiming Napoleon had owned it. When Grandpa bought it, Herman picked up Grandpa's discarded hat and displayed it with a sign claiming it was worn by President McKinley when he was shot. The Comic Book Guy engages in profiteering all the time, in one episode claiming a photograph of Sean Connery that was signed by Roger Moore is worth $500. He does seem to have some valuable stuff for sale, however. Zigzagged with the outlet mall in Ogdenville. At least one clerk there is honest with the cheap stuff they sell, which includes "crappy" knock-offs of brand-name electronics (the brands in the shop include "Magnetbox", "Sorny", and "Panaphonics") one clerk embellishes them to make them sound better than they are without actually lying, telling Homer that one television "features two-pronged wall plug, pre-molded hand-grip well [and] durable outer casing to prevent fall-apart". (Of course, Homer, much like all the customers, aren't too bright.) In "Miracle on Evergreen Terrace", the Simpsons buy a car with the money they raise from the Springfieldians. Homer doesn't notice that the dealer marked a $12,000 car up to $15,000.

Honest John's Dealership / int_2bbcacd9	comment	Looney Tunes: Get Rich Quick, Porky features the con man Honest John Gusher, who sells cheap vacant lots supposedly rich in oilâ€”but Honest John is really piping in the oil through a sprinkler system to fool potential buyers. The Pest That Came to Dinner has Porky Pig trying to get rid of a termite. He enlists the aid of a fast-talking, shyster exterminator named Sureshot ("I'm here to help ya, son!") whose various schemes keep making things worse for Porky. Daffy Duck frequently plays the role of a pushy door-to-door salesman strong-arming a reluctant character into buying unwanted goods, as in The Stupor Salesman, Fool Coverage and Design for Leaving. In Dime to Retire, he runs a hotel offering rooms for the meager cost of ten cents a night, and makes his money by releasing various animals into the room and charging guest Porky Pig outrageous "exterminator" fees to get rid of them. In Daffy Dilly, he's shown to be a loud-mouthed street peddler trying to sell joke novelties to an uninterested crowd. In The High and the Flighty, representing the Ace Novelty Company of Walla Walla, Washington, he tries to profit from Foghorn Leghorn's rivalry with the barnyard dog by independently selling both rooster and dog elaborate practical jokes to each play on the other, only to go too far when he sells them both a "Pipe Full of Fun Kit #7" at the same time, after which, realizing they've been had, Foghorn and the dog set their feud aside to get even with Daffy, using his own novelty device against him.

Whenever anybody calls him out on his business practices, he claims that they're being racist against hard-working Armenians. He eventually gets a dose of Laser-Guided Karma when Michael, whose Dumbass Teenage Son Jimmy bought a car from him, catches Franklin trying to repo it and forces him at gunpoint to drive it at full speed straight into Simeon's showroom, whereupon Michael gives Simeon a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown. Franklin, who was Only in It for the Money to begin with, tells Simeon to Take This Job and Shove It and starts working with Michael instead. Simeon shows up again in the game's online component, where he's portrayed as even sleazier than in the single-player game — he flat-out steals some of his 'merchandise', sending players to steal valuable cars off the street and bring them to his garage.

Honest John's Dealership / int_334120fc	comment	8-Bit Theater: Akbar: present every time the Light Warriors turn around, ready to sell them anything they desperately need. What a bargain! Even if getting into one of his airships is tantamount to suicide, which is saying something because the Light Warriors' luck with airships is practically suicide to begin with. Why they keep buying from him... he always claims to be an identical relative that isn't anything like the others. And the heroes are just incredibly thick. It's become a running gag to show some device failing to work (often catastrophically), then to reveal via flashback that the device was purchased from one of Akbar's many, many stores. Opposite Akbar is Jeff, the proprietor of "Jeff's Discount Death Traps (Not To Be Confused With Actual Airships)". His wares aren't any better than Akbar's, but he's completely honest about it, thereby earning the trust of Red Mage. Of course, the Light Warriors also like him because he kicks Black Mage whenever BM speaks. "When I say deathtrap, I mean deathtrap." Thief also occasionally dabbles in this line of work. For example, when the Light Warriors end up on a frozen tundra, he successfully sells blocks of ice to his teammates, marketing them as Ice Armor and Ice Spells. He's a Thief! He is extremely greedy, steals anything that isn't nailed down and/or on fire, considers anyone that won't steal something that is nailed down/on fire to be an amateur, and then manages to sell it back to you. So he's stealing your money twice. He was at one point very honest about his bad deals. Black Mage declared him a Magnificent Bastard upon finding that satisfaction was not, in fact, guaranteed. To elaborate, a contract had a tiny, harmless-looking dot between the words "satisfaction" and "guaranteed." Magnified to an extreme degree, the dot turned out to be the word "not."

The trope is invoked in "The Empty Store". After one of Bilko's men loses the squad's money in a poker game, Bilko gets it back by renting out an empty store. Everyone assumes he's starting one of these, and are desperate to get in on it. Eventually he sells a third of it to each of the guys who ran the game. All three of them. The episode ends with Bilko congratulating the card sharks on their ownership of an empty store, and asking what they intend to do with it.

The true CMOT Dibbler is, if nothing else, an excellent salesman for his ability to continue selling his horrible products, even after everyone knows just how bad they are. Besides the Ankh-Morporkian Dibbler, the Disc is home to a host of suspiciously similar salesmen, including Disembowel-Meself-Honourably Dibhala, Fair Go Dibbler, Cut-Me-Own-Hand-Off Dhblah, Al-Jiblah, May-I-Never-Achieve-Enlightenment Dhiblang, Dib Diblossonson, May-I-Be-Kicked-In-My-Own-Ice-Hole Dibooki, Swallow-Me-Own-Blowdart Dhlang-Dhlang, and Point-Me-Own-Bone Dibbjla. Reluctant world traveler Rincewind has remarked that if CMOT Dibbler ever shook hands with one of his international doppelgangers, there would probably be some sort of explosion. In the Discworld Companion, the author explains that "Wherever people are prepared to eat terrible food, there will be someone there to sell it to them." Hobson's Livery Stable employs an Igor as a vet, but is rumored to use his extreme surgery skills as a horse "chop-shop". There's an urban legend about a two-toned horse with one long scar going down its body, the result of two particularly nasty cart accidents. He isn't, however, dishonest, and isn't a salesman as such (he's only renting horses out). Heme Krona, proprietor of Camels-R-Us in Pyramids, also qualifies, given that he's ready to sell Teppic's camel ("One Careful Owner. Lo! Mileage") because Teppic hasn't come back for it all day. It is also revealed that Teppic's ancestor who founded Djelibeybi was persecuted for his beliefs; specifically his belief that people wouldn't notice he was selling them camels with plaster teeth. In Monstrous Regiment, Blouse makes the mistake of buying a second-hand horse from "Honest Jack" Slacker, "who went around all the horse fairs' bargain bins and sold winded old screws that dropped a leg before you got home."

In The High and the Flighty, representing the Ace Novelty Company of Walla Walla, Washington, he tries to profit from Foghorn Leghorn's rivalry with the barnyard dog by independently selling both rooster and dog elaborate practical jokes to each play on the other, only to go too far when he sells them both a "Pipe Full of Fun Kit #7" at the same time, after which, realizing they've been had, Foghorn and the dog set their feud aside to get even with Daffy, using his own novelty device against him.

It should be noted Weasley has a few similarities with Phil Silvers, namely his voice, clothing, and glasses. This may have been intentional. He's also a slight subversion in that he's not a complete fraud — after several failed attempts at capturing Sonic, an angry Robotnik accuses him of selling defective machines. Weasley reasonably counters this by pointing out that his products have all performed exactly as he promised, but Robotnik's idiot henchmen Scratch and Grounder are simply too incompetent to use them effectively, which is hardly his fault.

The owner of the shop is a shady salesman who sweet-talks gullible shoppers into buying pets, such as when he sold a boy 2 aging mice, a cage, a mirror, a treadmill, and a feeding bowl for 9 pounds when the boy had come in just wanting a lizard. The owner also doesn't like animals. He threatens the kittens that he'll drown them if they start costing more than he originally expected.

It was continued in World of Warcraft. It should however be noted that the Goblins are not universally this trope. Trade Prince Gallywix fit this to a T, but other cartel leaders like Gazlowe are legitimately honest businessmen. Goblins are however universally focused on profit. Of particular note is Griftah, a troll merchant in Shattrath Lower City who claims his merchandise conveys great powers to the wielder. Charm that allows you to heal wounds merely by eating food! Charm that anchors your spirit to the mortal world, and you just need to get back to your corpse to return to life! As you probably know, said abilities came standard with your character.

In the very first episode, she actually haggles over how much she can get paid to save the town she's in from an attacking dragon, stating to her companion that "Necessity drives a hard bargain". A couple of episodes later, she sets prices for several items in her possession at 100 times the street price and accuses the would-be buyer of having no balls for balking when he explicitly stated that he'd pay any price she named. Even her normally easy-going traveling companion is floored by that one. The same exchange occurs in the original light novel; Lina justifies herself to Gourry, saying that the extreme paranoia with which the buyer conducted himself (refusing to even specify which item he wanted to purchase until he was actually handing her the money) piqued her curiosity, so she deliberately named outrageous prices so that the buyer would buzz off long enough that she could have a closer look to find out what was so damn important about three valuable, but otherwise unremarkable, tchotchkes. Not that she would have complained if the buyer had actually ponied up...

Honest John's Dealership / int_7884ec15	comment	Seinfeld: "The Dealership" features Jerry buying a new car from David Puddy, who can get him an insider deal. George tags along because he's positive that all car dealerships are Honest Johns and wants to protect Jerry. At one point in the episode Puddy and Elaine break up and Jerry loses his insider deal, so Puddy rings him up for thousands of dollars worth of useless junk and tries to sell Jerry a yellow car instead of the black he previously requested. At the end of the episode Puddy and Elaine get back together and Puddy happily admits the dealership doesn't even know what some of the expenses actually do. He gives Jerry a good deal, which Jerry blows by refusing to give him a high-five.

Honest John's Dealership / int_7885acfd	comment	World of Mana: Almost every game of the series features a suspicious merchant who is either an anthropomorphic cat or rabbit named Neko, Nikita, or Niccolo. Sometimes he is playable, but he's always out to bring "happiness" to his customers by, for example, selling them overpriced glass beads as jewelry. Neko sells at exactly twice the normal buying price, in Secret of Mana. In Trials of Mana, Niccolo is revealed to be from an entire ''race'' of traveling cat-people merchants.

Honest John's Dealership / int_7bf6a74c	comment	The Beverly Hillbillies: In the first season episode "Jed Buys the Freeway", a conman, played by Jesse White, tries to sell Jed the freeway, Griffith Park, and the Hollywood Bowl. The Con fails when Jed discovers the conman isn't a mountain man . . . he can't hold his moonshine. The Beverly Hillbillies run into "Honest John", whose actual name is Shifty Shafer in the eighth and ninth seasons. Naturally he's played by Phil Silvers as an Expy of Saergant Bilko. He conducts two cons; one in New York and another in Washington, DC; the latter to have Jed buy land on behalf of the US government. Not only that, but he tries to sell Jed on a phony scheme to get rid of Los Angeles smog. However, the Clampetts are such nice people that Shifty ends up saying he can't accept the money.

He sells you several cursed quest items, and while he offers a variety of clothing, makeup & hairstyle cards, and other items, most of them are merely aesthetic in purpose. The real invoking of this trope comes from his spiel about items he's selling in the "childhood" portion of the game as well as the things he'll hawk when you're standing near his kiosk as an adult. He actually does have some real magical items, but only sells them to serious customers (read, those who can defend themselves against the monsters in the places that said items teleport them to.)

Honest John's Dealership / int_81692f99	comment	Star Trek: The Ferengi are an entire planet of scheming salesmen. The DS9 episode "Little Green Men" lampshades this. After Quark, Rom, and Nog get thrown back in time to Roswell, 1947, one of the humans sizes Quark up pretty accurately by comparing him to his brother-in-law. His brother-in-law's profession? Used car salesman. Harry Mudd of The Original Series is also an excellent example of this trope, although he thinks he's a Magnificent Bastard... The same goes for Cyrano Jones, who's much like Mudd in personality — he's just not quite as ambitious. Voyager ran into the interstellar version of this in "Alice". He forgot to mention the used spacecraft he sold Tom Paris was sentient and channeling Christine. In fairness he didn't have much choice in the matter, but his introduction is played very much like this trope.

At first, he just seems like an overzealous car salesman, but when you successfully question him, it quickly becomes evident that he's kind of a sleazebag. Bribing people in order to get them to buy his cars is just good business. Another DLC case, "A Slip of the Tongue" has one questioned in his relations to distributing stolen cars as legitimate ones. He's a little less sleazy than the last guy, but his sense of humor is so grating that your partner starts begging you to let him shoot the guy. After questioning this guy, your partner posits a chicken-and-egg question: "Do you think you have to be an asshole to sell carsï»¿, or that selling cars turns you into an asshole?" When Phelps thinks the partner is in a bad mood, the partner states he HATES car salesmen no matter what day it is, and loathes the fact they all think they're hilarious while only being funny as, quote, "a heart attack". Phelps then guesses that the more annoying they are, the faster the customers sign the paperwork.

When Monk calls Jake to repair an off-centered ceiling light in his dining room, Jake starts finding more and more faults in the building that need to be repaired. He then calls his plumber, "Honest" Ramone, to help knock down the walls and fix allegedly corroded pipes. It looks like Jake and Ramone are fleecing Monk, but their actual goal is bigger: they think a bank robber's haul is stashed in the house, and they're knocking out the walls to find it.

This is particularly bad in regards to Battlemech related technology, where the markup can be up to twenty times the going rate.

The trio gives Simon Lane a ton of gear and a new deed to Craggy Island after the Jaffa Factory explodes, but they hint afterwards that they scammed him with some dodgy terms and conditions, and plan to scam Simon and Lewis Brindley too. Unfortunately for them, Simon can still hear them.

Honest John's Dealership / int_9b530c26	comment	Archie Comics: One comic has Archie buy a snowmobile from a place like this to impress Veronica, and it's likely the worst model they had. Reggie, naturally, has a ball laughing in Archie's face (wagering he can circle the block in his newer model ten times before Archie can even do so once) until Mr. Lodge recognizes the heap Archie bought for a rare antique and offers Archie his own (the snowmobile version of a Lambourgini) $500 in spending money and use of his chauffeur for the day. Reggie actually goes back to the dealer (who's still smug because he thought he had conned Archie) and pleads for a similar "deal".

The products he sells are almost always shoddily-made and extremely impractical (the "Night Vision Goggles" are a pair of glasses with birthday candles attached to them). And even if they weren't, Olly's tendency to get way too into his pitch usually drives off potential buyers.

Honest John's Dealership / int_b0fc9724	comment	Saturday Night Live featured two sketches in the early-90's with the character of Uri Shurinson (Tom Hanks), a salesman who repeatedly tried to haggle customers into purchasing shoddy electronics that were either off-brand and claimed to have the "guts" of a name brand, or outright lying about what the product is. The first sketch featured Shurinson as a host on the "Sabra Shopping Network", which constantly claimed to be going out of business, and twice sold a VCR that was claimed to be the last one in stock. The second, better-known sketch featured Shurinson hosting Sabra Price is Right, a show that cons contestants who thought they were appearing on The Price Is Right by offering such "prizes" as a television antenna claimed to be a satellite dish with "Toshiba guts", a "cordless telephone", and a "microwave" that is actually a toaster oven. Shurinson proceeds to haggle everyone's bids, and the "winner" is dragged backstage and forced into paying for their prize at the price they bid at. At one point, he also makes a contestant buy one of the buzzers after reporting that it wasn't working.

Phil spends weeks researching and negotiating the best possible price for Hayley's first car but when he goes to pick it up Jay, who believes that all car salesmen are crooks, insists on coming along and tries to play hardball for a better deal. He mistakes the salesman's honest assurances that he can't go lower as a tactic and blows up the deal. They then go to another dealership where the second salesman tells them (again, completely truthfully) that he's never seen that model go for such a low price and he couldn't possibly match it, and when Jay bluffs that they can go back to the first dealership and get the original deal, the salesman replies with a totally sincere "Oh yes, you definitely should". Jay eventually secretly pays him the higher price to avoid looking bad in front of Phil, but the salesman still tells Phil the truth because he also has an overbearing father-in-law.

The characters want a really cheap vehicle just to get across the country, so the guy tells them that he can sell them a used ice-cream truck which isn't very well equipped but it will at least get them where they're going (i.e. the guy told the truth). It was a real used-car salesman who was being filmed and thought it was a documentary, not a parody of one. The salesman declared "I just feel bad I wasted three hours of my time for 150 bucks. And I had nothing to do with selling him an ice cream truck." The series How It Should Have Ended essentially makes the argument that Sacha Baron Cohen is an Honest John's Dealer delivering a movie that was (he assumes) not to most people's taste then telling them "so long suckers, you can't have your money back."

He has two young-looking twins work for him when his store is fully upgraded, so he's also (potentially) into child labor. He even manages to get control over the hair industry, having a salon in his store. And it's kinda creepy how he stalks you when you run around his store because he wants to be sure you don't steal anything. It should be noted that all this gets slowly downplayed throughout the series, though — the salon splits off by City Folk, and in New Leaf he's moved exclusively into the housing industry, and this time he actually gives you a choice as to whether or not you want to expand your house. Plus, even the old shop, now run by Timmy and Tommy, isn't nearly as economy-dominating since the selling function was moved to a separate shop, Re-Tail. This is dropped in New Horizons, but the itinerant vendors who drop by once a week still give good alternatives for selling your stuff. In City Folk, he even lampshades his dismal reputation among players. Crazy Redd is a competitor of Nook's who specializes in selling furniture that Fell Off the Back of a Truck and counterfeit paintings — a built-in mechanic in his transactions requires you to work out whether the painting he's selling you is the genuine article or a worthless fake.

Honest John's Dealership / int_c834792e	comment	Moneybags from the Spyro series has an interesting relationship with this trope. In Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage!, he plays this trope straight by offering services that are upfront on the surface level, but ultimately hinges on him abusing loopholes that imply that you could've done things without his help. In Spyro: Year of the Dragon, on the other hand, he constantly flip-flops between this and being a flat-out extortionist, offering to free prisoners of the Sorceress in exchange for Gems, coughing up threats such as, "Sheila won't stay in jail forever! ...The Sorceress is thinking of having her executed next Thursday!" By the time of Spyro: A Hero's Tail, however, Moneybags backs down on both of these practices and becomes a genuine, honest-to-god salesman.

This is mostly just to immediately establish him as a sleazeball through inference, since from what little we see of it it appears that his business is actually legit. Upon finding out about the "affair" his wife is having, Harry pays him a visit to scope him out, but Simon does not attempt to rip him off (he do however uses his 1959 Corvette as buyer-bait and does the typical "other guy was interested but maybe I'll sell it to you because I like you" spiel to Harry during a test drive where he also explains his seduction method, but the other part of the swindle — see if Harry offers much more money than "the other guy" — doesn't happens).

Then they find that the new ship is far too demanding for them to tolerate, so they go back for a refund only to be told that all sales are final and that their old ship is a one-of-a-kind model. He then gives them their old ship back in exchange for the new ship and a helmet that Groot really liked. The old ship breaks down on them in the middle of space.

Spamton, as a seeming embodiment of spam mail, certainly has the attitudes of one, often aiming for your KROMER and trying at every turn to make an important-sounding deal with you, seeking to make you a [Big Shot] in exchange for your SOUL. He started out as an unsuccessful one, too, but then started working with an Anonymous Benefactor he talked with only through phone calls, which sent him soaring into success with their advice. After the benefactor left Spamton behind, everything fell apart without their influence, aside from one last call that made everything go to hell. Now, Spamton is so utterly messed up he can't even speak properly and the prices in his shop fluctuate extremely wildly, from two to five digits, by the second. And everything he sells in there other than the Keygen is utterly mislabeled and mostly unusable, if not outright harmful. The Addisons outright proclaim all they do is advertise, and besides the Pink Addison's tea, none of their items are good, with them tricking you into buying from them by using Exact Words. One of them offers "free samples" of shoes (as in, a single shoe with a toothpick through it), another sells a dress for 300 Dark Dollars (with the mannequin attached, making it almost completely useless). Funnily enough, they actually used to be friends with Spamton when he was an unsuccesful salesman, but after he became a big shot with the help of his Anonymous Benefactor, they became envious of him and left him behind, believing he no longer needed them. If you interact with them after fighting Spamton, they will claim that they either haven't heard his name in a long time, refuse to talk about him, or outright Unperson him by denying any connections. After you defeat Spamton in his One-Winged Angel Optional Boss form, the Addisons gather around his shop to mourn for their fallen friend.

That said, without the information and technology they provide, the game is substantially harder. They also aren't exactly in it for the profit, their culture just considers it unethical to give without receiving (and that goes both ways. If you have something for them, even if you are willing to give it for free, they will find something to give to you in return). The Druuge as well: they consider profit to be of utmost importance, therefore they will do anything they think they can get away with if it will net them a profit. Trading with them can yield some useful items, but one must be very careful in how one does it. (They don't have a problem with slavery, or using said slaves as reactor fuel.) Also, unlike the Melnorme, who are generally quite honest about their merchandise, the Druuge are quite comfortable selling the player useless baubles and hyping them as powerful artifacts. Happily, the game does give you a chance to solidly screw over one of the Druuge captains on a deal, and it's quite satisfying if you manage it.

Later in the story, when he gets a legitimate job, he continues to treat it like one of his scam businesses anyway.

Honest John's Dealership / int_f0c816fb	comment	Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul: Saul Goodman is essentially an Amoral Attorney with Ambulance Chaser trimmings (including the garish advertising)... but, with all the underworld connections, ad-sense, fashion aesthetic, business savvy, situational awareness, people-reading skills, morals, and crooked-but-harmless persona more generally associated with an outright Honest John and borderline con-man. His name is even suspiciously close to "it's all good, man", which should tip you off.

For a modest fee, of course. In one episode, just as Mr. Haney pulls up with the necessary item:

He also has a "you pay the price you see on the sticker" policy. Although it usually means you're getting a lemon and no haggling, it proves to be his downfall when Sweetums swats a fly in juuust the right place and turns an $1,195 car into $11.95.

Cosby brags to a potential client that he is Honest John (pointing out the words with his stick). Just then, an angry customer (Freeman) bursts into the office and demands an explanation about why "Honest John" sold his son a lemon. Freeman then suggests that "Honest John" is an inaccurate name, to which Cosby admits "I lie a lot!"

Whenever a character needs to sneak around the station, he's there, willing to sell them plans, access keys, and anything else, for a "very expensive" price. Of course, N'Grath isn't exactly an Honest John, as he (she? it?) is also known to use and hire out hitmen if you don't pay her (him? it?); it (he? she?) implied to be some kind of crime lord, but since the B5 command staff can't pin him (her? it?) for anything and finds her (him? it?) somewhat useful at times, they more or less leave it (him? her?) alone.

Leo himself seems to feel that the answers to all life's questions lie in selling Cadillacs. He's so attached to the brand that at a point where he has shooed a pesky browser off his lot, the worst insult he can think of to yell after him is "Buy a FORD!"

Honest John's Dealership / int_fb9c177d	comment	Transformers: Swindle, from the The Transformers cartoon (and comics), is a giant transforming robot con artist. He once sold the rest of the Combaticons to the Russians (the equivalent of selling his own brothers) and has complained when being shot because it damaged his own resale value. His alternative continuity counterpart in Transformers: Animated proudly continues the tradition with some blatant conning and extortion-at-many-gun(s)point thrown in for maximum profit. He's honest in that the things he sells tend to be exactly as he described them... but he makes absolutely no guarantees about not walking over and selling your opponent just what he needs to counter your expensive new upgrades and leave the fight at a standstill. Action Master Gutcruncher is arguably even worse than Swindle. While Megatron can tolerate Swindle because at least he's obvious about it, you never know what angle Gutcruncher is working. In the TransTech comic continuity, Swindle manages to partner with himself via the joys of dimensional travel. Twice. The three of them run a business known as Swindle, Swindle & Swindle, and deal in black market modifications, equipment, and parts. It's every bit as shady as you would imagine for a store with Swindles as the barker, salesperson, and cashier. Simultaneously.

Honest John's Dealership / int_fdbace96	comment	Gravity Falls: Gideon's dad Bud Gleeful sells used cars for a living, and does so in this manner. "Engine possum at no extra charge!" Grunkle Stan. Before he started running a tourist trap, the majority of his adult life had been a cycle of "settle, scam, flee angry mob, repeat", often with the scam involving some type of defective product. These questionable products have included cleaning rags which were poorly dyed and left dye smears on surfaces, adhesive bandages which gave people rashes, and pitchforks which fell apart easily, among countless others. After creating the Mystery Shack, he went over to selling merchandise which isn't much worse than your standard gift shop fair, but most of his attractions are fraudulent (but still a whole lot safer than the actual cryptids of Gravuty Falls) and his merchandise is sometimes absurdly overpriced.
