Kar_lover Supercharged October 22, 2015 Share October 22, 2015 Dear bro and sis, Need the pro advice by you all. I paid for a K3 (basic) almost 4 COE bids ago. COE then was roughly 57k. I thought I got a decent deal but the COE bid keep failing. Worse so now, since Cat A is only roughly 55k. Why did the agent bid so low? The agent told me that they were bidding at about 50-52k. Didn't I buy the car with COE at around 57k? Are they screwing me over? Or am I too noob to this car buying thing? Errr....erm, the COE now also 57k mah. Even if 55k, 2k difference is pretty nothing? As for them bidding 50 to 52k, well they did not commit how much they will bid and if yours is not guaranteed and they fail to secure your COE then you will get refund. K3 under C&C, where will screw u?? They don't get your profit until they manage to secure your car. No car = no sale = no profit. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

K3 under C&C, where will screw u?? They don't get your profit until they manage to secure your car. No car = no sale = no profit. As a new car buyer, this is absolutely confusing to me. Why sell me something and push me to top up $3k non stop to "secure" it? Why sell something that you can never actually get? I think what is more vexing is that other bro/sis did get the car at the same deal as me. Why was I singled out? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why sell something that you can never actually get? I think what is more vexing is that other bro/sis did get the car at the same deal as me. Why was I singled out? So i guess you did not top up the $3k to "secure" it? Do you actually know what the other buyers did? Maybe they topped up leh? There is nothing confusing - different people got different "urgency" level. So those more urgent and die die must get (or believe COE will increase) will pay for the top up. Those who are more "get or don't get also can" will not top up. It's giving buyers a choice. I am sure they didn't single you out - you sound like jose mourinho (joke only, no offence). Wait awhile and see lah.....if you were so determined to get the car, then maybe you should have topped up in the first place. I mean when you decided not to top up, you also know the implications right? I mean, if don't top up also guaranteed can secure then who will want to top up, correct?

Non guarantee package usually for ppl who dont need the car fast and can play waiting games with the coe. up front i told the se no top for for me.If c&c dont secure the coe within 6 bids, too bad u dont earn my $$, i dont take ya car. Dont show to SE you in need of car urgently. Play along if you got time and squueze more freebies 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
