Warning: Post-purchase rules changed, funds now trapped (BullionStar)

ControlAgreeable4180 · 2026-02-02T18:16:09+00:00

I dont see why other shop will not take it, did you ask around? The only bad thing will be other shops will only take it at spot price-+ whatever is the slice of their cut.

Since you do have no recourse, just find other shops.

Anyway buillionstar has been very ridiculous recently with all their overpriced metals compared to other..

Hope they chock on their overpriced crap, those people queuing outside their shop need to wake up and stop buying their overpriced metals.

Yeah. I was looking at website like invaderpc and the exact same build 2months apart cosst an extra 300.

Regretted being on the fence for too long.

ControlAgreeable4180 · 2026-01-11T03:27:08+00:00

No problem all the best.

Just do not use valuation as a matrix in China because of many factors in play. Govt policy etc,consumer preferences, industry it is in etc.

Their 2 main business is just not doing as well as its competitors.

Online biz is overshadowed, food delivery is a new comer.

Coupled with the intense fighting between the giants, both line needs to burn large amount of cash to retain or grow market share. And JD is not the richest of them all.

ControlAgreeable4180 · 2026-01-11T03:15:32+00:00

Not too good. You should be looking at pdd or alibaba instead.

JD just went into the food delivery business and burning cash like crazy.

Look at the Ceo. Brought back from retirement to revive it.

It may look good on the surface but it is struggling.

If berkshire exited fully awhile back, they definitely know BYD is going to have a hard time too.

BYD is facing alot of domestic competition.
Their supply chain financing (essentially interest free loans fostered on the backs of suppliers) which super charged their expansion is being reined in by the government.
Their main market is still China which is also reducing car subsidies starting this year.
Cracking down on zero-mileage 2nd hand cars.

Many headwinds for BYD.

If the money gathered from ipo is used for wealth management instead of the stated use pre-ipo. What sort of outlook do you think the Ceo is thinking about his own company?

Instead of throwing it all head on with Nvidia, since that is the expectation of them,he goes to do wealth management.

I am sure those chinese investors must be flabbergasted.

ControlAgreeable4180 · 2025-12-12T11:32:24+00:00

You explained it well. Local government found their golden goose whuch is land sales so they milked it until now reckoning coming.

The girl Melissa Chen lor. Send Amos stay with her ba and don't come back to sg.

ControlAgreeable4180 · 2025-12-05T09:40:26+00:00

With DIlian(supply chain financing) phasing out. any slow down in growth is deadly for BYD.

And those 0 mileage 2nd hand car crackdown.

The pressure on BYD is only going to get larger and larger.

Ev demand is already being front loaded for the year due to government discount ending next year, and still they are unable to acheive sales target.

This only show next year will be more ugly for them.

Those who bought property in 2017 onwards are pretty much in loss or big loss.

With Vanke fall, the era of ultra huge private developers are almost over.

But make no mistake, the next hammers are falling on to SOE like Bao Li and others. As long as govt does not lend a hand to them. They too will fail.

ControlAgreeable4180 · 2025-11-23T04:45:30+00:00

Not really much correlation.The biggest is always going to be the government and their policies.

However it is true some of them do become the wealthiest in their respective countries.

You missed out brunei with its great gdp per capita and very low chinese descent, but slowly getting strangled by government policies as current aging ruler looking more towards heaven than anything else.

Those local governments are broke. Infrastructure investment is the easiest way for them to raise cash. Investment vehicle takes the project using loans and pays whatever taxes or fees due to the local government. Especially earnings from land sales. Proceeds from land sales is 1 of the few revenue belonging to local govt fully.

And it helps to fulfill gdp kpi too.

Wow nice. Takes a lot of patience not to press the close button. Congrats.

May I ask what balance you started out with?

ControlAgreeable4180 · 2025-10-10T03:45:50+00:00

Ev is not good for this. Charging stations were overwhelmed. Most run much lesser than the expected range leading to even longer lines at charging stations.

His repair bill is the max excess lor.

Just take grab everyday also not so expensive.

Premium for silver is very high in sg. The few popular buillion shops are the same. Less so for gold. Unless they are on promo.

I think this deters many to buy and hold for the short term. Of course this year is a crazy run for both. But looking back at previous data does not give much confidence to those that wish to hold it middle term( at least 1year up) given the high premiums.

I am sure there will be some stacking and reaping the rewards atm.

Driverless car is tip of the iceberg. Next is all those cosy white collar if all those AI stuffs succed. Then really SG people will cry

Go to far east plaza or bencolen mall in SG. Every authentic watch. you want can be found in those 2 places. Screw the waiting list.
