Keep stirring until they kowtow to you. so for a few thousand dollars, no decent company would risk a black lash that would undo all their marketing Haha that's my backup plans!

However, the result that shown is different in direction. No logic at all Those who can afford reducing interaction with others in public transport will do so...

Isn't heard directly from the horse mouth get more assurance? Why not just call to check with your PI by asking them will they give you an open cat on next last bid instead?

I don't think so ba if he fails to deliver it will tarnish his reputation I think if cannot deliver means cannot. Tarnishing reputation is not as important as profits. Cos you might not be the only car. Plus lets say they bid higher. It only means that the COE will go up because instead of let's say the lowest successful bid being $40k, it's now $41k. And if the only at $40,999 doesn't want to tarnish reputation, he bids higher and now the lowest successful bid is $42000. And you did not get the bid unless the AD tops up and so on. That's the thing with the quota. Regardless of what the AD/PI wants, as long as demand exceeds supply, someone will lose out. 2 hours ago, Ttl1976 said: There is no best time, best price to buy.

Ct3833 Supersonic December 9, 2020 Share December 9, 2020 (edited) People have short memory, COE price went up to near 100k during the drought period . We shall see next year and beyond when COE quota gets further reduced, the top volume selling cars will be Mercedes, BMW and other premium brands, B&B cars will only get to stand aside and watch the game. The only silver lining is those 5 years COE cars that were renewed a few years ago will be in for COE recycling to cushion the COE shortage to some extent.
