I started to do that Costco Auto process for a friend. I filled out the info of the car she wanted submitted it, and received a phone call the next day from the dealership that was selected. That guy called me one time, and one time only. I never replied, since she changed her mind, but he did not continue to harass me about buying a car, so I feel like that's probably a Costco influence as well.
Among other things, you don't even need to feel like you are worth the reps time if you don't want. They know you came for pricing, they offer it right away, you can leave right then. There's no "just get them in the door" feeling.
