Is the Dealer prep charge valid?

Asked by John Jan 20, 2019 at 12:30 PM about the 2009 MINI Cooper Clubman FWD

Question type: Shopping & Pricing

The dealership I encountered had a dealership prep charge of $695 for every car sold . Is it valid or illegal. Seems like an extra charge not included in the advertised price.

The fee is extra price padding. I would not pay it.
