At present, another traditional industry has been defeated, once a large number of people "face- to buy", and now the price reduction is still abandoned, this is the second-hand car industry. Many people wonder, what the hell is going on? This has led to a dramatic change in everyone's perception. Through understanding, it is mainly divided into 4 reasons.
Used car maintenance is expensive
First, the probability of used cars failing is high. Used cars are old cars that have been used by former owners for a period of time, and some have even been driving for more than ten years. Cars are consumables, and the longer they are used, the more likely they are to have problems. Although the cost of buying a second-hand car is low, the cost of later maintenance is also high, and the maintenance and repair of the new car, no matter how much money is spent, is willing, but for the old car that is worn out, it is inevitable that the cost of repair is too large. Frequent problems with cars affect buyers' moods and may delay major events.
It is better to buy a used car than to buy a new car
Second, there are many car brands and models, and the overall industry competition is fierce, and the brand side can only attract customers by stabilizing prices. Observations have found that now there are tens of thousands of yuan in hand to buy a good domestic car, and it is a full purchase. If the requirements are higher, you can also choose a foreign brand, you are short of funds on hand, and you can also apply for a loan. For the car loan, the brand side has also launched many activities, such as zero down payment to pick up the car home, or zero interest loan to buy a car.
Everyone likes to use new cars, in the past people loved to buy used cars because of insufficient funds, but they wanted to fill their faces. Now, even if you don't have enough money, you can drive a new car, but in the later period, you have to deduct part of the car loan from your income every month. Therefore, most people will choose to buy a new car.
Used cars have a low retention rate
Third, the retention rate of used cars is low, and it will be difficult to resell them in the future. But the new car is different, driving to their own dislike or income increase want to change to a new car, you can easily resell for money.
Scandals are frequent in the industry
Fourth, the waters of the used car market are too deep, and car owners are gradually losing trust. Over the years, the media has exposed many scandals in the industry. A large number of car owners have feedback that they will send the car to the second-hand car market for sale, asking for 200,000 yuan, but the other party said that it can only give half. After the discussion was fruitless, the owner could only find another second-hand car market, but after asking the price, the other party was only willing to give 60,000, which was not as good as the previous one. In desperation, the owner returned to the previous one to complete the transaction with 100,000.
In fact, what the owner does not know is that the insiders of the second-hand car market will channel in advance, deliberately lower the price, and if the owner leaves, the first store will notify other market personnel to reduce the price. When the owner returns to complete the transaction, the first store will give a share to other marketers who colluded.
I believe that not only selling cars, but also buying used cars also has moisture. For example, the merchant will deliberately deceive the faulty car, wait until the buyer buys it back to find out, and then find the merchant, they will not admit it, and they will say that the buyer caused it himself, and he is not willing to cooperate with the return. After such a scandal is exposed, who dares to believe in the used car industry?
Based on the above factors, second-hand cars have gradually been ignored by the public, even if the price is reduced, no one cares, and the entire industry is defeated by reality and goes downhill.
After the second-hand car market loses the favor of the public, it is good for the development of the new car market. Nowadays, citizens' incomes are increasing, and buying a house may be stressful, but buying a car is still relatively easy. There are many types of cars, all price areas, and everyone can choose the most cost-effective car according to their own economic situation. If you don't have enough money on hand to buy your favorite car, you can either wait for the price to be reduced or apply for a loan.
