Second-Hand Cars
Sir,—ln looking at good second-hand cars I find that
some are selling above list price. I thought there was a law against this sort of thing. Even with extras they seem dear. After all, the extras are second-hand, too. Could someone put me right on the matter? —Yours, etc., CAR-SEEKER. June 30, 1965. [The district officer of the Department of Industries and Commerce (Mr P. J. Carroll) replies: “Second-hand cars have not, for some years, been subject to control under the Control of Prices Act. However, special conditions may apply to the resale price of a car imported under a no-re-mittance import licence. If the facts relating to a particular car are made known to the Customs Department, that department would be able to explain what the correct position should be.”]
