consumer-credit sale

Read a random definition: hermeneutics

A quick definition of consumer-credit sale:

A consumer-credit sale is when someone buys something but doesn't pay for it all at once. Instead, the seller lets the buyer pay over time, like with a loan. This type of sale can also include renting something where the rent payments add up to the item's full price.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A consumer-credit sale is a type of sale where the seller extends credit to the consumer. It includes a lease where the rental payments equal or exceed the retail value of the item rented.

Examples: If you buy a car and the dealership allows you to make payments over time, that is a consumer-credit sale. If you rent a TV and the rental payments add up to more than the retail value of the TV, that is also a consumer-credit sale.

Explanation: In a consumer-credit sale, the seller is essentially loaning the consumer the money to make the purchase. The consumer agrees to make payments over time, usually with interest, until the full amount is paid off. This type of sale is common for big-ticket items like cars, furniture, and appliances.

@mastermonkey45: Looking at some of the recent decisions in relation to when they went complete, I'd say it's a good sign. It seems many declines were sent within about 5-6 weeks of completion. Given those were applications that were SENT in January, I'd say that means you're still solidly in the running. :)
