Direct Seller or Buy & Sell. Which one is better?

[frake]

Ano po opinyon ng mga experts natin dito. Ano po ang pros and cons?

Sa katulad ko, mas ginusto ko sa direct seller. Sa buy & sell kasi may markup na sila (syempre negosyo nila yan). Kaso ang hirap din pumunta sa mga lugar ng may ari ng sasakyan, while sa buy & sell, pupunta ka lang sa store nila. Sa buy & sell ba ginagawa na nila ang engine problems or yung kaha lang ang inaayos?

ang mahirap lang sa Buy and Sell nag mamake-up sila ng sasakyan.. and may mga iba repair na panandalian lang... para pag gamit mo ng 1 week ayos pa... after that lalabas na yung problem..

With a direct seller, per my experience, they are less likely to hide defects and tamper mileages (although some do) as they are still protecting their name/integrity. I myself, when i sell my cars, ensure that everything is okay or i disclose the problem that has to be attended to. Sa Buy and Sell, it's just plain business and they know the ins and outs of shortcuts more than anyone else.

With a direct seller, you can also deduce more how he cares for his car by observing their garage and how their other cars look. You can establish if the car is more likely to be pass floods and potholes by looking at their residential address and surroundings. Through a little talk, you can establish where he usually goes by knowing his office address or where he works.

Buying a second hand car is always a risk, whomever you buy it from. I've encountered three Buy and Sell people and maybe around 7-8 direct sellers to date. Two out of the three buy and sell guys sold me a car with a tampered mileage; with the direct sellers, only came out to be a lemon (my dad's box type Galant which we bought back in the early 90s).

meron kasi ako dati nabili sa direct seller, mazda 323 97 model automatic.. nung makita ko ang ganda talaga, makinis para nga brandnew eh.. mabait naman yung nagbenta na tomboy... kaso hindi nag disclose ng problema... may topak na pala yung transmission kaya binebenta...

meron naman mga maayos na buy and sell eh.. dito sa may BF homes las pinas meron nag buy and sell pero nasa bahay nya yung mga sasakyan.. maayos naman at mukhang mabilis mag pasa ng sasakyan

Direct syempre! Malaking pagkakaiba sa presyo yan. Pareho namang may risk na makakuha ka ng sirain. Pero katapat lang naman nun ay test drive, isang mahusay na mekaniko at matinding pagdadasal. Kung buy and sell talaga, to play safe dun ka sa tanyag na store. Yung tipong matagal na at may magandang reputasyon. Since well established name na sila, definitely ang mga kotse nila walang problema since they would want to preserve their company reputation.

i prefer the owner-seller. they're nicer to talk to. especially those who don't really need the money.

Ok lang bumili sa kanila (direct or buy & sell seller ), as long as marunung ka tumingin ng ok, kung hindi naman magsama ka ng trusted mechanic.
