Best Posts in Thread: Scooter hire anyone?

The buy. sell option is a good idea. If the new owner decides to come back they will already have a scooter. If they choose to sell at 17,000 they can find a buyer in a heartbeat.

 

I'll make you an offer right here and now.

I have a 1 and a half year old RUSI that I'll rent you. Its in fine shape but RUSI's are cheap. You can buy one new for 35K pesos but then you have to wait forever for the plates and registration.. So my offer is to rent it to you for 5K per month x 3 months (thats 15K in advance) and if it breaks through no fault of yours then I'll fix it or return the unused portion of the rent.

Why would I do that? With the 15K I would add some of my own cash and buy a bigger bike. Then when you return the RUSI I would give it to my gf's family.

Alternatively, since the motorcycle is about 18 months new and not used much, just give me 26K pesos (that's 25% less than the new price due to depreciation) and its all yours, papers and all, just drive it away and give it to a friend when you're done with it.

Here is a pic. Its semi automatic which means you don't need a clutch but you do use the foot pedal to change gears.


The cats are optional they can go with the bike or not, up to you

 

I appreciate that you gave my offer some thought. I would be curious as to the dates you wanted to rent it for but I can tell you that 9K is too low as I have to think of wear and tear and depreciation and the possibility that you will get in an accident and its a total write off to me . . . so there is some wiggle room but not that low. Can you send me a private message with the exact dates you need it and we can discuss it further?

 

Yep. I have agreed to that, no worries. But if someone wanted to rent it or buy it on dates that do not conflict with our deal then . . . . that's what the PMs are for folks. I'd rent it or sell it after 1lostaussie is done wiv it :-)
