xandy,
preorders have been in existence well before this site began and they will continue to be the preferred means of buying value cars despite what has happened here.

not all dealers are fraudulent.

@xandy, you have made your point. Pre-ordering isn't only good bt at the same time its cheaper. We must understand life is all abt risk and it will be too risky for we humans not to take the risk. What if you buy directly as you said,that doesn't mean any unforseen circumstances can't still happen. Our prayer should be God's protection and guidiance.

@calculusx so pre-order is cheaper, then it all about risk and you cant tell what may happen, life is about risk

xandy,
and to add to what calculusx just said. if a dealer is fraudulent, it doesn't matter whether you buy directly from him or not, he will still find a way to dupe you.

some years back peeps here were careful about buying cars from benin city (edo state) dealers because the general opinion was that when you buy your car from them they will trace you to your house and retrieve the car from where you parked it using the spare key in their custody. now tell me is that a pre-order purchase? you saw the car, inspected and paid for it on the spot only for it to be taken away from you by the same dealer who sold the car to you few weeks later! how's that for fraud?

@ george, what kind of order do we call that one? After making payment, delivered and they come back and pick it again. A honest dealer will always be honest and a fraudulent one will always be except if he have a change of heart. Lots of people are enjoying the pre-ordering their cars and they can testify to it. Pre-ordering could be cheaper or expensive depending on one's budget. As a Yoruba adage says, bi owo ti mo ni ogun n mo, meaning cut your coat as your cloth. Happy Weekend

calculusx,
exactly! fraudulent dealers will always be whether you pre-order or not.

imagine a dealer coming to trace you after several weeks you bought your car and using the spare key in his custody to steal the car where it was parked!

lol, lets wait for xandy84 view on this. I actually don't force or lure people to pre-order cos its like im doing them a favour. Except if a buyer wish or suggest pre-ordering cos not everyone have the patience.

one hand on the steering wheel, one hand on the gun barrel!

This Pre-order thing is not as straight forward as it sounds.

What do you expect when those at the helms refuse to have a steering committee in place to oversee their questionable conducts Hence anything auto related is "buyer beware" with customers needing to do their homework

She didn't win anything, you know that I was only dealing with a handful of issues which I'm sure you don't want to know, or do you? Even if you do, I don't think I'd tell you.
BTW,
How has it been? Much love darling!

Why pre order a car? The dealers in Nigeria wants to make 100% profit on accidented cars from auction, so people start looking for trusted individuals that can help them with a higher quality cars with less price.

Anyways, I have a 2005 Toyota Corolla from the US for sale here in Lagos. N1.2M Only

Its Manual Transmission, extremely clean interior and exterior. I need to sale it fast to clear other cars

to your question: why pre-order a car? i'd say its the most sensible way of beating the shylock naija car dealers to their game-provided you follow a tried and trusted route.

Thanks for your prompt respond , hope will seal some deals in the nearest future .

I just started dealing on cars recently, and i introduced a particular method to reduce suspicion among prospective buyers. I dont collect any form of advances because am based in nigeria, and to prevent disappoints when the cars are ordered for any body i insist on checking out your credibility with your lawyer or banker without which i cannot do business with you. Still customers make statement like ''you are doing business the really wrong way by trusting Nigerians''. I think that its a two way thing and I admire the work the guys at the auto- section are doing. Big ups.

You need to be extremely careful as majority of this dealers are criminals. See your ride with a MOPOL, pay and drive it away. ALL THE BEST.

kombe,
will the mopol be always around to guard the car for you when the same dealer that sold the car to you comes around with a spare key to drive it away where it is parked?
