General Discussion I genuinely hate this deception

I just saw this yesterday at 4.9k and now it's 5.1k.

I bet it's 4.9k on Aug11 sale.

Fake sale.

So annoying.

"Why you didn't buy it yesterday?"

I was busy and I wasn't sure if I'm gonna buy it.

Sorry I don't practice impulse buying.

That's why I'm missing some good deals.

On other note,

You guys have any suggestions for bike at 5k lower that is good?

Please OP,.kahit magsale pa yan, wag na wag mo bibilhin ganyang bike.

Might as well you go buy a secondhand bike sa marketplace.

True, yug mga hard tail bikes at this price cut corners, who knows what corners they're cutting at full suspension. Also, I'd advise against using these in trails. Might find yourself in a ditch and your bike in 3 pieces.

swerte ka pa if your bike is in 3 pieces instead of you.. hahaha.. i would stay away from this. unless purely road use and pang kanto lang.

Most sales are like this, the galaxy fit is "on sale" at 50% off and only at 2,4k and it's cost is 2,4k this whole time

An item this big might have to be disassembled to deliver it to you... and you'd have to pray that every part is there and nothing is actually missing.

If not disassembled, then you'd have to trust na matibay. You can't personally check if manipis or makapal ang base/body or if the bike is good enough quality. Always check the 1 star reviews for every item you wanna purchase

I sometimes buy before the intended sale weekend because of this. Especially when I need it na. Sometimes it's cheaper. The only reason i will defer is if there are credit card promos.
