Women pay higher car repair prices than men, but negotiate better

Women pay higher car repair prices than men, but negotiate better

The Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University has found that uninformed women seeking automotive repairs end up paying more than men, yet they are more successful negotiators when it comes time to talking down a service price. The study, "Repairing the Damage: The Effect of Price Expectations on Auto-Repair Price Quotes," was conducted by Kellogg professors and a student working with AutoMD.com, an online automotive repair information site. Men and women were asked to call repair shops seeking quotes to replace the radiator on a 2003 Toyota Camry.
