Are you one of those unfortunates who are going through life suffering with a skin disease, making you uncomfortable, making you less efficient, interfering with your working hours, ruining your sleep?

“How best can I trade in * my present car for a new car?” WHEN you are ready to trade in your present car for a new car, you naturally want full value for your present car. But most of all you want full new Qar value. It will therefore pay you to consider varying trade-in allowance offers in the light of these basic facts: XY our present car has only one fundamental basis of value: i.e., what the dealer who accepts it in trade can get for it in the used car market. 2 Your present car has seemingly different values because competitive dealers are bidding to sell you a new car. 3 The largest allowance offered is not necessarily the best deal for you. Sometimes it is; sometimes it is not 4 An excessive allowance may mean that you are paying an excessive price for the new car in comparison with its real value. 5 First'judge the merits of the new car in comparison with its price, including all delivery and finance charges. Then weigh any difference in allowance offered on your present car. 6 Remember that you are making a purchase —not a sale. You are buying a new car and simply using your present car as a credit against the new car's purchase price. WE publish this message, believing that the public is entitled to have all the facts.
