Chewbacca80 Neutral Newbie May 16, 2007 Share May 16, 2007 (edited) Hi all! My SE jus called me and she gave me 3 options for my last coe bidding, which one should i choose? any advice 1) top up 2.5k for guaranteed coe 2) top up any amount to increase my margin for bidding 3) top up 2k for guaranteed within next 3 bids, so 6, 7 and 8th er failing which if i still want to go with the 7th round it would be additional 1k Edited May 16, 2007 by Chewbacca80 ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juniorsg May 16, 2007 Share May 16, 2007 Quote Hi all! My SE jus called me and she gave me 3 options for my last coe bidding, which one should i choose? any advice 1) top up 2.5k for guaranteed coe 2) top up any amount to increase my margin for bidding 3) top up 2k for guaranteed within next 3 bids, so 6, 7 and 8th er failing which if i still want to go with the 7th round it would be additional 1k from what i see is that for option (1), is hassle free in the sense that no matter how the COE fluctuate (up or down) you will get your COE. as for option (2), if the SE say that the highest bidding price they gonna bid for you is 12k, then with the current COE you are going to come out with 4k to increase you margin. that's not worth. and for option (3), comparing with option (1), is 500 difference and if you are in urgent need to have your ride, option (1) is better. perhaps with option (1) ask for freebies.... just my 2 cents........

Kelvinsmiley Neutral Newbie May 16, 2007 Share May 16, 2007 thought u mention ur SE didn't ask u to topup. There is a possibility that the COE could still go up in the next bid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewbacca80 Neutral Newbie May 16, 2007 Author Share May 16, 2007 yah.. at first she didnt ask for top up.. but i guess this being the final bid... she decided to let me know of the option the company is giving to backloggers like me... haiiiiiiii Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewbacca80 Neutral Newbie May 16, 2007 Author Share May 16, 2007 actually she didnt say the highest bid how much they are willing to bid... but so far my highest bid for 5 rounds is 12k.. she did kinda say that i might not want to stretch my budget too much so maybe can just top up $500 er to show the company that i really want the car??!!

Chewbacca80 Neutral Newbie May 16, 2007 Author Share May 16, 2007 but if i take the back the deposit and buy other car , other cars these days are so expensive too... aye.. wonder if this would happen if i have gotten a suzuki swift... sianz heh wonder if i can decide on the bidding day itself to top up for guarantee.. maybe i should ask her actually her advice is to top up a sum , either 500 or 700 plus.. not so exp compared to 2.5k Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jho0001 Neutral Newbie May 16, 2007 Share May 16, 2007 Out of interest, was it originally 6 bid guaranteed COE? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furrynadz 5th Gear May 16, 2007 Share May 16, 2007 tell her fly kite none of the 3 option wait out ur last bid get back your dough and plunk it elsewhere Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ender Hypersonic May 16, 2007 Share May 16, 2007 Considering the current situation, taking back deposit and buy another car might not made good economical sense. I believe Checbacca might have booked during the COE crash just before CNY, and even with the $2500 top up, it's still alot cheaper than the current price. With top up, asked for more freebies..

Boxster 2nd Gear May 16, 2007 Share May 16, 2007 Option 2) top up any amount from what value? Not reasonable to say 12K rite ? Go and find out how much they are selling now and compare with yr price how much difference? (how much more than 2k?) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sony 1st Gear May 16, 2007 Share May 16, 2007 eh... so Option 1 is confirm will get by next bidding? Option 3 is confirm will get but within the next 3 bidding? Since you waited for so long, take 3 then.. or wait for money to come back and sit out till the next crash.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
