发帖数: 1039 | 1 有些感想，在看了chicago 和DC 对比之后，和一些帖子。其实不仅仅是团购。
1。团结就是力量。 俗是俗了点，道理却是硬道理。chicago的过程是很好的证明。DC
是某种程度上的反证。
2。团购过程中遇到波折，结果还不完美，说明可以改进，但不要放弃。
3。光靠gentlemen's agreement，不足以有效组织。应该加强契约性，来enforce
commitment。比如，加入时要签约并交deposit。退出时需半数以上团员同意才退
deposit.老中有太多聪明人，喜欢出妖蛾子
希望我们老中能把这种团购精神光大到工作上，community service上， 和参政上
(sorry typing chinese is too slow) - more about 团购
4。hats off to Chicago group and especially the leader. As of DC group, it's
falling apart, hope they can pull through. I think for DC group, they need
another co-leader as back up, so that when the leader cannot continue due to
other commitment (say business travel), the co-leader can continue the
process.
5. try to avoid closing the deal individually, at different time - email
offer from dealer is not good enough. If possible, ask them to fax the paper
work first - only after each group member is satisfied, then go to the
dealership all together and just sign the paper work.

发帖数: 2045 | 2 Wow you guys have too much time - what I thought after reading the Chicago
report.
The Chicago leader said "正像我跟大多数团员们交流的，我并不是必须要买这个车"
. You don't want to impulse buy something just to save a couple hundred $$$
or because other people are doing it.
Has anybody proven Group Buy saves significantly more than negotiating by
yourself?
And pay $1,800 for aftermarket warranty on a $25k car with not-so-great
resale value reputation? I bet dealers can't stop laughing after the
transaction. | g*******t
发帖数: 1039 | 3 business value wise, it is another story and debatable.
The way to organize our fellow chinese to deal with someone/something is
worth encouraging. That's the way to go.
unfortunately, for too many people, in their eyes they only see $ on the
table, not the value in the long term.
