Leepee 1st Gear January 17, 2008 Share January 17, 2008 oh no! Here comes the real hidden cost. A little here and there, adds up to $2000++....LPPL....the deal would not be a good as it was when first signed. Towing fees is only $50 at most! $800 is too much! Whats next? Stamp fees for bidding COE? Polishing/removal of protetive wax fees? Battery charging fees? ECU reboot fees? LTA documentations courier fees? Aircon charging gas fees? Bank loan/evaluations fees? That is why you can NEVER win when you buy from some PI. You think you got it at a cheap price? All black and white smartly spelled out in the contract! Very soon tactics will start appearing to recoup back their profits! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So_nice 6th Gear January 17, 2008 Share January 17, 2008 u should look at the term and conditions of the contract drafted. i believe there should be some fine prints tat ur friend had missed out. like wat has been posted above, towing crew to tow a car is less then 50 bucks! hence i dun see why should they be collecting 800..

Bladerunner 1st Gear January 17, 2008 Share January 17, 2008 (edited) That's why I will never buy from PI even after you get your car, comes the warranty issues, etc, etc. If die die must buy, then must really look out for those established/reputable ones, but then again, sometimes you'll never know when will they "fall"... Anyway, $800 for towing!!?? Are you buying the A380??? Or are they using the Hummer to tow your car??? Or are they towing your car all the way from Japan??? Rediculous!
