What Do You Think Of Putting Deposits

[RenoJoy 6]

Hi hi ... newbie here.

Was googling for more info on a particular furniture shop when I chanced upon this forum.

Got a question. What do you think of placing DEPOSITS with the furniture shop? for something which you will only get to use it like 1 or 2 years down the road depending on the TOP of your place?

I was told that prices of stuff will increase, hardly decrease. GST might increase etc....

So was advised to put a deposit.

Which of us in sane mind would do that?

If so, why?? Please enlighten me.

Definitely not. I'm sure the only person that advise you to put a deposit was the salesperson......and she/he has only your best interest at heart............not.

got to be kidding. like the previous replies say.. designs always would change. your choices also would change. moreover, even if you say that the price of furniture would always increase. you need to see what you can do within this 2 years with that $.

if within these 2 years, the market really pick up etc etc.. got good investment opportunities, you can easily make back that difference.

True.... Designs wud change and prolly u might have a diff concept on ur home by then.. DONT PAY THE DEPOSIT.. Even with all the increase price, there are bound to be sales elsewhere.. That sales staff is juz trying to earn comm... That's all....
