Tips for buying CAR STOCK in JPCTRADE.COM

19, June, 2008 vol.5

Hi there. This is JPC’s Mail Magazine #5.

We just had a large scale earthquake in the Tohoku Region in Japan and all the news on TV was about rescuing the survivors. This happened when I just got to the office and I was on my own. I felt an unusual wobble; feeling unsafe, I went outside through the emergency exit to have a look outside. There was a bigger earthquake in Sichuan, China, not so long ago. Some scientists say that we have now entered a period of brisk seismic activity globally. They might be right. As you know, we have lots of earthquakes in Japan but it seems big ones are occurring too often lately. It is scary to think that one day we might have a huge one here in Tokyo. Tokyo is the centre of almost everything in this country, politically & economically. Newer buildings are earthquake-proof but I can see it would be an unimaginable disaster if it happens. I do not want to think about it. How about in your country?

We started the “Car Stock” last week and we have been receiving a lot of inquiries from all over the world. Thank you very much for your interest. However, as I told you before, you have to be quick. All the newly listed cars tend to go quickly and sometimes they might have gone by the time you get around to contacting us. So if you find cars you are interested in, please tell us straight away. We check the data every day, so if you also check it every day, you will one day find a good bargain.

Some customers asked me to show the prices in Euro (€) & US $, so we changed this bit. But we buy cars here in Japan in Japanese Yen and the exchange rates change every day, so please use the prices in currencies other than Japanese Yen as reference. If you have any other requests, please do not hesitate to ask us.

The prices in Car Stock are FOB prices. To ship them, you need to pay for the Cost, Insurance & Freight; which is called CIF price. You have to add other costs incurring in your country to this CIF price to get the total cost. In some countries like New Zealand and Africa, cars have to go through pre-checks according to their own rules. Please ask us for help.

The freight is getting more expensive lately because of the high oil price. It is a headache not only for us exporters but for our customers. We hope the price goes down soon.
