ADP Cash Di$covery Program

Opinions? Experiences?

I'm reading this contract really closely, and I find a lot of problems. Anyone have any real-world experience?

We found it would generate a few sales at the start of the month, right after our inventory was updated. Most all of the sales were mechanical parts, in small quantities. Only non-number change parts were acceptable to the buyers. Seller had to pay shipping. Generally, the buyers were more than 500 miles away from the dealership.

Would I recommend? I have no other buyers for these parts at any price since GM let me holding the bag. It breaks my heart to just put them in the dumpster or scrap them for the metal price.

The ADP "retail" program wasn't worth the time of day.

My experience has been the same as 57years. Did OK at first then fell off, have not had an order for over 30 days.
Check shipping costs before you accept the sale, some will be very high and leave you with NO profit, might as well throw the part in the trash.
You can put in a minimum order, we used 200.00. Figured by the time expenses came out there may be some money left.
If I was a parts mgr. I would use this anytime available to buy parts, 50% of current cost and no shipping charges. Sounds like a no brainer to me.
