Nus24 Neutral Newbie May 13, 2009 Share May 13, 2009 Went to see a BMW with my friend few days ago. My girlfriend wants to buy because her boyfriend made tons of money in the recent stock market bull run, so ask my friend to see car and chose on she likes. We went around AML/Turf city, saw a ready stock model with the color and interior color specs to my friend's liking. Ok...we so query about the price with the SE (female). Sat down to discuss about trading in her Honda fit, and the loan amounts, etc. Ok SE gave a quote of $X for the car, with 4 bids guarantee package. SE said if immediate must add $1000 more. The SE says if my friend is really interested, the SE will talk to the boss for better price. My friend then suggested that she will bid the COE herself next week to save the PI time/effort on the 4 bids period, and asked the SE to get a better price from the boss. Today the SE called my friend and quoted a price of ($X + $1000 - $7500current coe price ) for the car as the BEST DEAL her boss can offer! The SE even asked my friend to come down to place a booking immediately if interested. With the standard offer is valid for only two days and no guarantee the same car will be available if delay futher,etc. The fact is that this $X offers is not really dirt cheap, as all other PI also offered around this price for this BMW model. So it cannot be that the price was underquoted originally. I was thinking... 1) What a joker this SE. 2) What kind of offer is this? 3) Help PI to reduce COE hedging risk yet the car price can increase $1000. I can only conclude that 1) This PI is expecting the COE price to drop next 4 bids. Thereby can make more profit by insiting on 4 bids deal rather than customer get own COE deal. 2) This SE is not keen to make the sale, or 3) This SE is thinking my friend's anxious/interest shown in that car indicates a potential Sucker customer that SE can con-big time. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
