Think what. Want good want defect free, want very cheap. These people should go make their own products.

Wait till you sell your goods at cash converter, you will appreciate why people still wanted to buy from you at Carosell.

Absolutely, cheap is ok but i would say a lot of them are asking for beyond cheap,  if only there is a word to describe. 

 

A lot are also asking for fun only,  after you reply them,  there will be a complete silence. 

Some people remain silence because they wanted to know how much lower you could go. Then suddently silence, because they may have 2nd thought due to budget issue or probably have no need for the item.  Stuff that are ornamental, overly used, have no functional purposes...etc could be the reason why people kept silent after a few enquiry questions.  Sometime, seller also stay quite far, which also deter buyer from making further inroad into the transaction.

 

Inflation , cost of living, are the reasons people head to Carosell for bargain stuff.  If you price are too close to retail price,  and are used item, you cannot fault them for asking discount.

Cash converter think people all farking stupiak. All those CDs that are scratched / damaged / cannot play. I bring there. They will just take without checking. But of course you only get $1 to 2 for the 10 CDs.

 

I ever saw one person decline to sell because the offer too low. The fella from cash converted shouted at him :"WHAT?! YOU DON'T WANT TO SELL?!!"

Behave like thug.

 

Those karang guni very hard life. They go round the blocks, collect and then sell to CC. Get so little.

I dislike those asking for lots of photos. They normally don't buy.

 

One asked me for more photos of my computer. So I asked him which angle he wants? Silence after that. LOL

 

Normally they offer you half your stated price.  So I said I'll be happy to sell them damaged items. They don't want. Want brand new but don't want to pay.? 

 

This Carousell even ask  me to give away unsalable items. I mean the item is very new. These people got very poor business sense.

I sell my unwanted 2xist at $5 a pair. Some think I'm selling fakes. I up the price and they think it's real. But of course they won't buy.

Nope,  my product is new and always cheaper than the market price.  Precisely,  nowadays when everything is so expensive and they still can get a good deal,  they should grab it. Otherwise,  at least have the basic courtesy to say "let me consider".

First laws of trade, buy low , sell high. 

 

Busineesman 's law of survival buy lower, scrape the bottom of barrel , sell even Elon musk higher . 

 

 

Second law of trade , act cheap, cheaper , cheapest. Wear your seller down , bargain, bargain, bargain lower. 

 

3rd law of trade , kong jeet , bor kong chuut,  act blur when you gain profit , complain like hell when uuu  make small loss, 

 

Eg. Chinese tradesman , grocery shop owners, small time tradesman always rant , complain, moan, 

 

Hang cheing pai, lui pai tang , buay kao chiak , 

 

While they act like a pauper, they secretly own 20 shophouses which they ate collecting rent to.cover each units mortages, by leveraging, as a landlotd they never show mercy wheb collecting rent one lah, its payup.or move out , take it or leabe it, but then in front of grocery shop customers put on sad face, put on mourning aura and repeat rant , lui pai tarng, harng cheng pai,  bor tarng lui.

 

After cllosing shop for the day , got 2 or 3 small wives besides main wife, then got money to call geylang prostitute one , lar , although married with kids, can have illegitimate childten with small.wives in one in Malaysia , one in Indonesia, one in Thailand. All got kids in indonesia, Thailand , Malaysia.

 

For chinese people, so long as he payup , he is a good father. 

 

Forth law of trade , take it or leave it. My offer is this taje it or leave it. 

 

 

Cheap , cheaper , cheapest.

I know those who lowball are normally re sellers.

 

I got one girl lowball me for my set of never used photo frames. I declined. She kept pestering me. I just blocked her. 

 

I told her she buy the whole lot for very cheap and resell. She denied. Said she want to use them herself. Ha!

Yes, I wish more buyers could have some basic courtesy and say “thanks for your time”.
